Infrastructure that matters
What matters to you and the society matters to us at Polar Structure. We develop and own infrastructure that enables a more resilient and sustainable society. It is in our DNA to be an innovative, responsible and long-term infrastructure partner.
A transition enabler here to stay. That matters.
A responsible and long-term
transition partner
Significant investments are needed to upgrade our infrastructure to meet the needs of tomorrow. Approximately 50% of the necessary assets required to make our cities and communities climate neutral are infrastructure-related. Polar Structure offers municipalities, governments, and the private sector a way to develop, manage, and finance necessary investments to accelerate this transition.
Polar Structure invests holistically to contribute to transforming cities and communities – such as infrastructure from ports to end customers or connected cities – to make them sustainable and more efficient. We take the initiative to develop new infrastructure assets through partnerships with both private and public stakeholders. Polar Structure contributes with know-how, competence, and capital. We call it “Infrastructure-as-a-service.”

Our holistic investment approach prioritizes selecting projects that add value and contribute to the transition toward a more sustainable society. By leading the development of critical infrastructure, our projects strengthen resilience and build more efficient, robust transport systems. Our infrastructure solutions not only support sustainability but also enhance economic competitiveness in an ever-evolving global landscape.
Our focus areas are sustainable transport, green energy, and digital solutions, and within these, we enable the transformation of ports, railways, logistics, land, charging infrastructure, energy, and digital solutions.
By addressing various challenges in infrastructure, such as the lack of maintenance of the railway system or the power and distribution problems in the electricity grid, we enable a sustainable transformation of society.
We are founders and majority owners of new companies that develop and own resilient and sustainable infrastructure. We also invest in deep technology companies with a business and know-how that can help accelerate infrastructure development. We have a responsible and evergreen ownership structure that enables the transition for both the private and the public sectors.

Green energy
Energy is one of the sectors that have contributed the most to the increased emissions of greenhouse gases in Europe. As such, it is also one of the sectors with the most significant potential to reduce emissions. For this to happen, a continued expansion of green electricity production, the development of charging infrastructure for electric cars, and a reinforced transmission system with smart electricity grids and energy storage systems are needed.
