Metso Oyj discloses a high-level commitment to keep its external engagement “in line with the goals of the Paris Agreement” and notes that “The President’s and CEO’s, as well as Metso Outotec Executive Team’s (MOET) responsibilities include focusing on sustainability and its management,” suggesting some senior-level attention to climate-related matters. The company also states that “Sound Corporate Governance principles form the foundation for the management of the company” and that “Our mission, vision, values and our Code of Conduct guide all our operations and stakeholder interaction.” However, the disclosure does not spell out any specific mechanism for monitoring or reviewing lobbying activities, makes no reference to how direct advocacy or participation in trade associations is assessed for climate alignment, and does not identify a dedicated committee or process that oversees lobbying compliance. As such, while the public commitment to Paris-aligned engagement indicates an intention to align climate lobbying, the company does not disclose the concrete governance structures, monitoring procedures, or corrective actions that would demonstrate a more robust approach.

Metso Oyj offers only limited insight into its climate-related lobbying. The company indicates that it is active on broad policy areas such as energy efficiency and climate change and refers to the proposed Finnish Corporate Responsibility Law (Yritysvastuulaki), but it does not clearly list or describe specific climate policies, bills or regulations it has sought to influence. Its description of engagement channels is similarly high-level: it notes participation in forums such as the European Institute of Innovation and Technology Raw Materials platform, the International Chamber of Commerce and the Federation of Finnish Technology Industries, yet it does not identify which government departments, legislators or other decision-makers are the targets of these activities, nor does it detail direct tactics such as meetings or submissions. Finally, the disclosures express only broad ambitions—promoting energy efficiency, fostering innovation and supporting Finland’s carbon-neutrality goal—without setting out concrete legislative changes, amendments or targets the company is advocating. Because the information remains generic across policies, mechanisms and desired outcomes, the transparency of Metso Oyj’s climate lobbying is limited.
