Empowering a sustainable and prosperous world

Nokia provides networks that connect societies, industries and consumers with each other. Our presence across 120 countries gives us the opportunity – and privilege – to make a positive environmental and social impact on a global scale.

Sustainability is not a limit to growth, it is a catalyst for impact at scale.

In an era defined by rapid technological advancement and urgent environmental and social challenges, the importance of aligning innovation and sustainability has never been clearer.

The Nokia People and Planet Impact Report stands as a testament to Nokia’s unwavering commitment to shaping a future where connectivity-driven digital transformation and responsible stewardship go hand in hand.

Protecting the environment

At Nokia, our net-zero ambition is a key part of our broader environmental strategy, which addresses interconnected challenges across operations and product lifecycles.

There are two components of our path to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions:

  1. Decarbonizing our own operations
  2. Decarbonizing our value chain

Reducing energy consumption, increasing circularity and reducing GHG emissions throughout the lifecycle of our products remains a core objective.

Empowering societies

Connectivity is a fundamentally social technology: it allows people to communicate with each other in their personal and professional lives.

That is why providers of connectivity, including Nokia, have a unique role in strengthening social bonds and building healthy, successful and productive communities.

Enabling sustainable innovation

Our role goes beyond the provision of infrastructure that is itself efficient. We want to contribute to the roll out trusted, resilient and high-performing connectivity everywhere.

This will make it easier for communities to innovate, drive economic growth and provide public services in a more equitable way.
