Contributing to the Energy and Security & Defence Tracks
Nordic Compass is focused on strengthening competitiveness and resilience across the Nordic region and Europe through concrete industry-led initiatives. SKF will initially focus on contributing to the Energy and Security & Defence tracks, bringing expertise in energy efficiency, industrial innovation and critical infrastructure.
Europe’s Competitiveness Challenge Is an Energy Challenge
Europe’s competitiveness challenge is increasingly an energy challenge. Improving productivity, reducing energy losses and strengthening industrial resilience will require collaboration across industry, academia and policymakers. Through Nordic Compass, we look forward to contributing our century long expertise in friction reduction and energy efficiency to help accelerate innovative solutions that strengthen Nordic and European competitiveness
Rickard GustafsonPresident and CEO at SKF
Friction remains one of the largest hidden consumers of energy in the global economy. As a company built on understanding and reducing friction, SKF’s technologies help customers operate more competitively and sustainably. This by improving machine performance, reducing downtime, as well as increasing energy efficiency and product lifetime through circular solutions across industries ranging from manufacturing and transportation to renewable energy and critical energy infrastructure.
Supporting Critical Infrastructure and Societal Resilience
Beyond improving energy efficiency, SKF also contributes to societal resilience through technologies and solutions that support critical infrastructure, transportation systems and industrial capabilities. The Group supports both civil and defence-related value chains and provides technologies used in sectors essential to economic resilience, energy systems, transportation networks and industrial capabilities.
