The report on 2022 provides a clear overview of the work carried out in accordance with the authority of the BT&P, the development of the organization, and a general view of the regulatory work carried out in the past year. There are several interesting developments highlighted in the 2022 annual report. One example is the BT&P's ambition to serve as a leader in the community's efforts to reduce the CO2 emissions. The BT&P conducted a study to see how the organization can actively contribute to reducing CO2 emissions. The Director and employees have begun working on concrete actions to reduce CO2 emissions around the BT&P by 50%. “If each of us contributes, together we can contribute to one of the United Nations' goals to ensure sustainable development of humanity.”
In this year and the future, the BT&P will continue to focus on what is called ESG, which includes environmental, social, and governance aspects. The social aspect regards the BT&P's task of ensuring access to services or products for the community. In order to achieve this, the BT&P's aim is to continuously create a balance between the needs of both society and the provider. Finally, it is worth mentioning that good governance means, above all, that the BT&P complies with the current laws.
