Cluster

Carbon neutrality as a goal!

The energy industry is undergoing a huge transition, and phasing out fossil energy increases the need to develop cleaner forms of energy and technologies.

The aim of the Energy Cluster North Savo activities is to strengthen the vitality of the energy industry ecosystem of North and Central Savo and the whole Eastern Finland and promote the attractiveness of investing in the region by creating opportunities, e.g. conveying valid information about megatrends in the energy sector and opportunities to develop business in a more sustainable and carbon-neutral direction with various financing solutions.

From a strategic point of view, the energy cluster is the basis of sustainable cooperation and ecosystem. The cluster and its members are respected innovative pioneers in their field, for whom sustainabiliy is part of their activities and values.

The task of the cluster is to promote the development of a functional path to the availability and permanence of skilled labor in the region. Savonia and Sakky offer an excellent framework for workforce development and training needs as well as for RDI activities, implementing company-oriented training and taking into account the needs of continuous learning in companies. In the cluster’s network, the regional Energy Research Center, which is unique on a European scale, offers product development and testing as well as training services in the fields of energy production, transmission and distribution, and energy storage.

Cluster promotes cooperation with actors in the region and with national and international cooperation bodies and offers a comprehensive networking channel for national and international clusters and their stakeholders.
