-    Not one day goes by without the climate crisis being part of the societal debate, as well as the important role of electrification as a solution. I have with great interest continued to follow the climate issue and feel that being part of the journey that Anna Borg and her team is now setting out on with Vattenfall – the next phase of Fossil Free Living within One Generation – is a chance you only get once in your lifetime. I have to take it, says Karin Lepasoon.

-    I am happy that Karin chooses to return to Vattenfall. She has played an important role in setting Vattenfall’s direction and it feels both natural and obvious that she has a place in our team also going forward. She will contribute greatly in our management team, says Anna Borg, President and CEO, Vattenfall.
