Soltech strives to increase the share of solar energy in the energy mix. Our ambition is to facilitate a just green transition and thereby contribute to the journey towards a sustainable society.
Our sustainability agenda includes six focus areas that represent the most important issues for the Soltech Group. By focusing on these issues, Soltech becomes part of the solution to overcome the challenges that our customers sometimes face in their respective industry.
The Soltech Group’s operates within roofing, facade, electrical engineering, charging, and storage, and besides the core business we transform all our companies to also develop solar energy solutions into their product range. This breadth gives us a broad competence and a holistic perspective when we cater for the needs for both small and large-scale energy solutions. The sun is our platform and solar energy is reflected as a major area in our sustainability work.
Our sustainability work includes aspects from all three dimensions, environmental, social and economic sustainability. We translate it to “good for the planet, good for the people, good for Soltech and society. We are and want to be part of the solution on the path towards a more sustainable society.

Our Focus Areas
We are one of Sweden’s largest companies in solar energy and technical solutions for renewable energy and energy storage. We operate within solar, roofing, facade, and electrical engineering. As a provider of systems that create renewable electricity in the energy system, we contribute to reduced climate impact and our ambition is for our solutions to have as little negative climate impact as possible.
By managing our value chains in a responsible manner, we improve the situation of workers in the supply chain, improve environmental performance, reduce risks and contribute to positive change. We strive to offer products and solutions with minimal adverse impact throughout the value chain that suits our customer’s needs.
The focus area of the workplace addresses issues related to both the physical workplace, the working environment, and staff development. Soltech’s employees are our greatest asset and the goal is to create high-performing teams and high work-life quality.
The focus area is about delivering quality in everything we do. It refers to ensuring the right skills in the right place and at the right time, to work on the basis of efficient and quality–assured work processes and to ensure that work does not need to be redone/fixed or otherwise cost resources unnecessarily.
An important aspect for Soltech is to use natural resources in a responsible manner in order to not cause unnecessary impact on our planet’s ecosystems. Procurement is a central function in our ambition to create circular material flows for as many of the products we use as possible.
