Global megatrends drive our innovation Transformational megatrends provide a source of innovation and opportunities for growth. We develop solutions to address the pressing societal, environmental, and industrial needs and challenges posed by these megatrends together with our customers. We are committed to creating innovative solutions that empower people and communities to take data-driven climate action. Climate change – more than a megatrend Climate change is humanity’s most pressing challenge. It is a key driver of extreme weather, leading to increased temperatures, rising sea levels, and significant health concerns. It also intensifies challenges for already vulnerable communities. Reliable measurement instruments and intelligence play a vital role in understanding, mitigating, and adapting to these issues.Climate change connects to other transformational megatrends which affect nations, businesses, societies, and individuals worldwide: the shift towards sustainable energy and decarbonization, the rise of artificial intelligence and the need for process optimization, and the focus on health and well-being. Image AI and process optimizationOur instruments provide precise data even in the most demanding environments. For instance, semiconductor manufacturers use Vaisala’s moisture, temperature, and other monitoring instruments to achieve the required quality standards and optimal production output. Data center operators use our temperature and humidity measurement instruments for energy optimization. Image Energy transition and decarbonizationWe help our renewable energy customers to select the optimal site location, enable real-time forecasting capabilities, and continuously monitor their power plant and infrastructure in real-time for stable and enhanced output. We also aid decarbonization by providing technologies for energy efficiency and electrification. Our instruments are used e.g. to monitor dew point in the lithium-ion battery manufacturing process, in carbon capture applications to measure inlet and outlet CO₂, and in carbon utilization applications. Image Health and wellbeingOur solutions monitor development, manufacturing, and supply chains of pharmaceutical drugs and vaccines. We also provide condition-monitoring solutions that are crucial in labs and hospitals, particularly in cold storage and incubators. Moreover, we help to build capabilities to resiliently adapt to changing weather conditions with environmental observations, forecasting, and early warning systems for extreme weather. Our technologies also support people’s health and well-being by monitoring both indoor and outdoor air quality
