Environmental award to Altinn
Since start-up in 2003, 60 million forms have been submitted electronically using the Altinn solution. At a conservative estimate, experts believe that the total reduction in greenhouse gas emissions corresponds to about 33,000 trees, 90 million litres of water and 17,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalents.
It is an excellent goal for Altinn to provide users with simpler, quicker and less expensive reporting to the public authorities. But in a social perspective, the environmental effect may be equally interesting.
