Climate change

The importance of reliable observations and forecasts to protecting lives and infrastructure is constantly increasing due to the impacts brought on by climate change. Mitigating climate change also calls for more actions from the industry. Vaisala helps its customers to establish weather observation networks and build up capabilities that improve their capacity to predict extreme weather, for example.

Renewable energy

Various forms of clean and renewable energy are becoming increasingly competitive and common as well as help mitigate climate change. The variable nature of renewable energy sources highlights the importance of site selection, real-time forecasting capabilities, and continuous monitoring as ways to ensure stable energy production. For instance, Vaisala’s measurement technologies help customers to get more out of their wind power plants or biogas plants.

Resource efficiency

In a resource efficient business, less is more, as raw materials are used in an economical and sustainable manner. Circular economy focuses on the reuse and reintroduction of materials back into the value chain instead of turning them into waste. Vaisala’s measurement instruments help, for example, to make production processes more efficient and to save natural resources.

Authorities are also tightening requirements on the safety of medicines and pharmaceutical supply chains. Vaisala’s solutions help to ensure safe and healthy living, working, and production conditions inside buildings, for example.
