Sustainability statement 2009

Guidelines for sustainability reporting

Statkraft has guidelines which describe the sustainability reporting, and all relevant units report their sustainability performance in accordance with these guidelines. Emphasis is placed on ensuring that all information is complete and correct, but some of the material may be uncertain.

Scope of the statement

The sustainability reporting generally follows the Group’s accounting principles for the treatment of subsidiaries, partially owned power plants and associates. Sustainability data are collected for all companies in which Statkraft holds a majority stake, and the sustainability data are then presented in the statement in their entirety. As a general principle, all presented sustainability data must be prepared on a Group-wide basis. However, this is not possible for some indicators. These instances are explained in the note to the respective indicator. The notes also clarify individual concepts, explain significant, annual changes and describe any changes to calculation methods.
