Open innovation
External R&D partners are essential to Statkraft. Our ambition is to cooperate with the best qualified national and international institutions and partner with relevant businesses.
We have brilliant people in Statkraft, but we know that brilliant ideas can also come from outside our company. That’s why we collaborate with start-ups, academics, research institutes and other businesses. Together, we explore, test and create the energy solutions of tomorrow.
"We need joint efforts to build competence and capabilities for the future."
