Sustainability
Supporting the Green Transition
Sustainability is closely connected to eSett’s mission. By providing trusted settlement and data services for the Nordic electricity market, we support a well-functioning and transparent electricity market that enables the ongoing energy transition.
As renewable electricity production continues to grow across the Nordic region, efficient market processes, reliable data and market transparency become increasingly important. Through our services, eSett contributes to the development of a stable and sustainable energy system.
Implementing the UN Sustainable Development Goals
eSett supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and recognizes the important role businesses play in sustainable development. Sustainability is integrated into our daily operations and decision-making, and we have identified selected SDGs where eSett can create the greatest impact.

Climate and Environmental Responsibility
Measuring and Reducing Our Impact
Understanding our environmental impact is an important part of our sustainability work. eSett monitors and reports its carbon footprint annually and uses the results to identify opportunities for improvement and guide future actions.
Our carbon footprint 2025 was 509 t CO2e. The calculation was carried out by OpenCO2net Oy in accordance with the GHG Protocol standards and covered Scope 1, Scope 2 and Scope 3 emissions.
Science-Based Climate Targets
eSett has committed to science-based climate targets through the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The targets support our long-term efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in line with climate science and the goals of the Paris Agreement.
eSett’s targets were validated by SBTi in May 2026. With this approval, eSett commits to:
- Maintaining zero direct emissions (scope 1) through 2032
- Reducing energy-related emissions (scope 2) by 50.4% by 2032 (from a 2023 base year)
- Measuring and reducing value chain emissions (scope 3)
Responsible Business Practices
Sustainability is also about how we conduct our business. eSett is committed to responsible, ethical and transparent business practices. Our Code of Conduct provides guidance on integrity, compliance, respect, inclusion and responsible decision-making throughout our operations.
Continuously Improving
Sustainability is an ongoing journey. We work continuously to improve our environmental performance, strengthen our business practices and identify new ways to create positive impact through our services and operations.
