Thinking green and sustainable is a crucial competitive parameter today. Companies are finding that customers, authorities and partners are increasingly demanding documentation that they are working on green transition and ESG.

At Billund Erhverv, we help companies translate ESG and green transition into concrete business development through networks and workshops.

"We see that companies that take green transition and ESG seriously have a competitive advantage. We see this both on the bottom line, in recruitment and in their relationship with customers. We also experience that these types of companies are more innovative. All in all, you could say that the companies are creating a better version of themselves,” says Lars Gadgaard, a business developer with a focus on sustainable business development at Billund Erhverv.

A good example is the company BC Energiservice, which works with energy optimization and installation and servicing of heat pumps and cooling systems, when they became part of the Green Business network in Billund Erhverv:

"It was natural for us to work on our green profile, and it was an important step for us to become part of the network. We have mastered certifications and can now also document our work with a focus on ESG – and this gives us a clear advantage with customers.,” says Steffan Lohff from BC Energiservice.

At the same time, participation has provided inspiration and learning in the meeting with other companies, continues Steffan Lohff: "Being part of the network has definitely been a plus. We have gotten to grips with ESG work, and we have gained a broader perspective and much more knowledge by sharing challenges and solutions with others in the industry.". "

The Green Business Network is part of the EU-funded project “Beyond Fossil – Lighthouse for Green Energy and Sector Coupling”. Over a year and a half, participants work to develop their green profile, integrate ESG into their business strategies and prepare their first draft of an ESG report.
