Elkem and environmental foundation Zero enter partnership for industrial climate solutions

Elkem and environmental foundation Zero enter partnership lately. The collaboration aims to drive advancements towards reduced carbon emissions and improved climate solutions, by leveraging the respective strengths and expertise of both organizations.

Elkem is a key supplier to the green transition, producing silicones, silicon products and carbon solutions, which are critical materials to enable the electric vehicles, solar panels and wind turbines, as well as computers and mobile phones, that the world depends on.

Under the partnership with Elkem, Zero will contribute its knowledge within climate change and policy. The environmental foundation Zero is an independent, not-for-profit organization that promotes practical solutions to the climate crisis. Zero is politically independent, has an analytical and knowledge-based approach, and gains knowledge through continuous cooperation with external actors across business sectors, research, policy and organisational networks. Zero’s goal is to be a driver of zero emission solutions.

"We are pleased to enter into this partnership with Zero," said Helge Aasen, CEO of Elkem. "Elkem aims to be part of the solution to combat climate change – and to be one of the winners in the green transition. By combining our expertise and resources, we can accelerate the development and adoption of innovative solutions that contribute reducing our emissions towards net zero while further growing our supplies to the transition."
