Low-Carbon Energy Expertise for an Electrified Era
Low-carbon industrial electricity expertise for metals and mining companies transforming their operations for a more competitive, electrified future.
Powering the future of metals and mining
As mining, metals and heavy industries electrify and decarbonise, access to reliable and
competitive electricity becomes mission critical. For metals and mining companies, securing
reliable, competitive and low-carbon electricity is increasingly important as operations become
more electrified. Fortum brings Nordic low-carbon power, long-term energy solutions and
market expertise to help industrial customers secure supply, manage risk and grow with
confidence.
Heavy industry needs more than electricity. It needs energy certainty
For mining, metals and other energy-intensive industries, industrial electricity is no longer only an operating cost — it is a strategic enabler of growth, competitiveness and decarbonisation. For metals and mining companies in particular, energy sourcing is becoming an increasingly important part of long-term business planning.
Electrification, green hydrogen, process transformation and investor expectations are increasing the need for reliable fossil-free power, while volatile energy markets make long-term planning essential.
• How do we secure enough power for large-scale industrial growth?
• How do we reduce exposure to electricity price volatility?
• How do we prove and communicate progress on Scope 2 emissions?
• How do we combine cost competitiveness with credible decarbonisation?
• How do we make energy sourcing work for continuous, power-intensive operations?
What Fortum brings to metals and mining and heavy industry
Fortum helps metals and mining companies and other power-intensive industries navigate the Nordic energy market as a trusted advisor, helping to solve problems through innovative solutions and create value by making the best decisions.
Industrial electricity solutions built around your needs
With Fortum, energy-intensive companies can source low-carbon electricity, manage price risk, support emissions reduction and simplify complex energy decisions. We work alongside our metals and mining customers to design energy solutions that match their operational realities and long-term growth plans.
Long-term Power Purchase Agreements
Secure low-carbon electricity for the long term and bring greater predictability to industrial investment planning.
Fortum offers tailored PPAs from Nordic renewable and nuclear generation assets, with structures such as baseload or pay-as-produced options. For large industrial customers, PPAs can support cost visibility, supply security and credible decarbonisation.
Hedging and energy market expertise
Navigate electricity market volatility with structured purchasing strategies and experienced Nordic market insight.
Fortum helps industrial customers design purchasing portfolios that balance spot exposure, hedging instruments and long-term contracts. The aim is to reduce uncertainty while preserving the flexibility needed in changing markets.
Guarantees of Origin and environmental value products
Strengthen transparency and support credible claims about the origin of electricity.
Fortum provides Guarantees of Origin for renewable and nuclear power, supporting customers with electricity disclosure, sustainability reporting and market-based emissions reduction. This is especially relevant for metals, mining and industrial companies under increasing pressure from customers, investors and regulators.
Flexibility and Optimisation
Turn flexible demand and assets into a source of value.
As industrial processes become more electrified, flexibility can help manage costs and support power system stability. Fortum can help customers identify, optimise and monetise flexibility where operational conditions allow.
Industrial Decarbonisation Partnerships
Build the energy foundation for low-carbon industrial value chains.
Fortum partners with companies developing new industrial models in areas such as green steel, low-carbon aluminium, hydrogen and electrified production. This includes supporting the transformation of metals and mining value chains as they move towards more electrified and low-carbon production. The focus is on practical, scalable energy solutions that connect industrial ambition with reliable low-carbon power.
