Will become a leader in both technology and sustainability
Cegal's vision is to become a leading global technology company that contributes to a more sustainable future through its specialization in energy. That is why the company has worked long and purposefully with ESG (environmental, social, and governance). With a separate global leader for sustainability, this work is further strengthened.
Celise Skaar says: ”I am very happy to have the opportunity at Cegal. Cegal has a clear and committed vision: to be a leading global technology company in the energy industry. At the same time, the company has set very ambitious goals within ESG. That makes the position extra exciting, as I love working with technology and sustainability. I want to contribute to Cegal becoming a global leader in both areas.”
Skaar looks forward to contributing to Cegal becoming a leader in technology and sustainability, especially in an energy industry facing major changes with digital transformation and the transition to renewable energy sources. Skaar will, among other things, integrate ESG principles into Cegal's decision-making processes and operations.
Skaar concludes: “I also want to support our customers in their ESG work. Many people find that the concept of sustainability is not concrete and difficult to understand. I hope to bring a more pragmatic and practical approach to sustainability work and create concrete solutions that produce sustainable results.”
