"In Promovec we are working on a Co2 accounting of one of our high-runner bikes and a cargo bike, which will be completed in the end of November 2022. The findings will be the setpoint for our ESG strategy and this will be conducted in the beginning of 2023 as we then know where to make corrective action for lowering our carbon footprint and monitoring the process as we will be able to set measurable goals."
