Fjord1’s mission to society is both clear and crucial: To connect communities, people and workplaces in a safe, reliable and efficient manner. As a provider of critical public infrastructure, we are more than a transport service - we are an essential part of everyday life along the coast and a driving force for local development. Sustainability is therefore an integrated part of our operations, as this report highlights.
In 2025, we took an important step in our sustainability work by initiating the development of a climate transition plan in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement. This work is central to reducing Fjord1’s environmental impact, and the plan is scheduled for completion in spring 2026.
Fjord1 has long been a leading player in the transition to more sustainable transportation, and in the coming years we will take new and significant steps. In September 2026, we will commence operations on the world’s first fully autonomous ferry connection between Lavik and Oppedal, where four new, hybrid electric vessels will operate using advanced autonomous technology. This project clearly illustrates how we move from ambition to action – and how we aim to shape tomorrow’s maritime solutions.
Our core business, the operation of ferries and passenger vessels, is rooted in long-term investment, stability and responsibility. Our owners have high ambitions for the company, and together we work purposefully to strengthen our value to society, environmental performance and economic sustainability. In turbulent times, stable and sound corporate governance is more important than ever.
Strong collaboration with our stakeholders is essential to our success. We depend on trust and open dialogue with customers, local communities, authorities and partners. In this report, you can gain insight into how we work systematically to maintain and develop these relationships.
At a time marked by strong competition for labor within the maritime sector, I find it important to thank the employees of Fjord1. Their commitment and expertise form the foundation for our ability to deliver on our societal role.
Looking ahead, we see great opportunities in the interplay between technology, sustainability and our mission to society.
Fjord1 shall remain a safe and forward-looking partner for society, and a role model for how the maritime industry can take responsibility in meeting new expectations and challenges. I hope this report provides a clear insight into the results we have achieved - and the ambitions that lie ahead.
Thank you for your continued interest and thank you to everyone contributing to the development of Fjord1.
Best regards,
Geir Bruvik Mjelde
Chief Executive Officer, Fjord1.
