Powerhouse is the most climate-ambitious player in the Nordic construction market, and our buildings have exceptionally high ambitions for energy performance and climate impact. By combining world-leading expertise in architecture, energy, and materials, we create a concrete pathway toward a carbon-neutral society.
In 2025, greenhouse gas emissions related to the Norwegian building and construction industry amounted to approximately 11 million tonnes of CO2, including emissions from imported construction materials. This is a significant reduction from previous years, reflecting ongoing efforts to decarbonize the sector.
Globally, buildings now account for about 30% of final energy consumption and 26% of energy-related emissions. This highlights the critical need for energy efficiency, renewable energy, and climate-friendly building materials.
