With the signing of a long-term contract with renewable energy provider Enery, Nokian Tyres has ensured a supply of zero CO2 emission energy for its new passenger car tyre production facility in Romania. The contract is valid for 11 years from 2025 and additionally provides a framework for Enery to construct a new solar power plant in southern Romania.
A little over two years after beginning a controlled exit from Russia, which resulted in the sale of its key regional passenger car tyre plant in Vsevolozhsk, Nokian Tyres has officially opened its successor. The company held an inauguration ceremony at its new passenger car tyre factory in Oradea, Romania today in the presence of government and other officials, together with Nokian Tyres’ Board of Directors, management team and some 200 guests.
As Nokian Tyres reported earlier in the year, it selected Adrian Kaczmarczyk to succeed Esa Eronen as senior vice president of Supply Operations following the latter’s retirement. He officially commenced in this new role on Tuesday after gradually familiarising himself with the company and its business during the past half-year, and also joins the tyre maker’s management team.
