Operating environment Front pageOperating environmentDespite the geopolitical tensions caused by ongoing international conflicts and uncertainties related to the development of the global economy, the overall market situation in Enersense’s business areas as a whole remained reasonably good in 2024. The strikes in Finland during the first part of the year did not have a significant impact on Enersense’s operations. Uncertainty about economic development and higher operating and financial costs have had a negative impact on some customers’ investment and business environments. On the other hand, given the changed geopolitical situation, energy solutions are being made more self-sufficient in Europe, and this is expected to speed up the implementation of projects related to the energy transition and critical infrastructure maintenance. This trend is also supported by long-term energy and climate policies at EU and national levels. However, in the short term, shifts in international politics, decision-making and changes in the regulatory environment create uncertainty in the market. (Financial Statement Bulletin 2024, 28.2.2025)
