Transition Hub

Explore the path towards a sustainable future, by transitioning away from fossil fuels and mitigate the effects of climate change.

A path towards a sustainable future

The shift from fossil fuels and fossil-based materials to renewable and low-carbon alternatives represents one of the most significant challenges of current times. At AFRY, we believe that it is possible to transition towards a low-carbon economy while also promoting economic growth by implementing innovative technologies and forward-thinking policies. Explore our latest insights, reports and inspiring examples for a sustainable future.

The Fossil Detox Progress Report

This year, AFRY launched The Fossil Detox Progress Report, a comprehensive update on the pace of the climate transition and how to accelerate it.

AFRY’s 2024 Fossil Detox Report revealed a clear truth: fossil lock-in runs deep across sectors. Infrastructure, policies, and business models still favor the old path with too few concrete exit strategies The Fossil Detox Progress Report builds on that baseline to track momentum and spotlight what’s changing and what still holds us back.

New report: Grid fee exemptions are key to battery storage profitability

A new analysis by AFRY Management Consulting reveals that maintaining grid fee exemptions is critical for the economic viability of battery energy storage systems (BESS).

As Germany redesigns its grid fee system under the Allgemeine Netzentgeltsystematik Strom (AgNes), AFRY’s analysis highlights that the expiration of current grid fee exemptions in 2029 could reshape the investment landscape for energy storage.

Scaling sustainable solutions now

"There is no silver bullet. Although, we know that with the technology available today, we can decarbonise 80% of our energy system. It is time to scale the solutions at hand and ensure a just transition for all. At AFRY, we are committed to being part of the solution, working together with businesses and policymakers to make it happen."
