President's message Alstom has a long history in Finland - we have been working together with our customers for over 70 years to create technologies and service solutions for energy and rail industries. The energy and transport markets are facing new challenges. Combatting climate change by reducing emissions and at the same time maintaining our industries competitiveness in a global market is a common challenge for our societies. Alstom provides a wide range of solutions and state-of-the-art technologies and services for the power and heat production. Turbine island solutions to the nuclear power industry, emission reducing technologies, conversion of fossil fuel plants to biomass and also waste to energy and wind power are important solutions we offer to our customers. Future energy production will be more decentralized and the European electricity markets will be more strongly connected. This process combined with an increased amount of decentralized renewable power plants requires investments in the electricity grid. Alstom's new Smart Grid solutions will provide a new platform to more efficient and steady network. Due to global warming and other environmental challenges also sustainable transportation will increase. Rail transportation fits well to those sustainability requirements. Alstom is a leading supplier of rail technology e.g. locomotives, trains, trams and metro vehicles, infrastructure as well as signalling technology. To keep customers' assets competitive over its full lifecycle, Alstom offers a comprehensive range of service solutions for power plants, rail equipment and other industries. We are humbly thankful for the partnership with our customers.
