Sustainability

Alexela is a hybrid energy company offering a wide range of energy products.

In addition to selling traditional and renewable energy products, the company produces biomethane based on circular economy principles and develops an e-mobility charging network, a hybrid park encompassing renewable energy generation and storage, gas terminals, a peak-load gas power plant, and a pumped-storage facility. These initiatives help address the challenges of the energy transition and ensure additional energy security in the Nordic and Baltic region.

Alexela is developing a sustainable refuelling network — alongside e-mobility, biomethane and hydrogen refuelling options are also steadily expanding. Our goal is to provide customers with energy in their preferred form at home, on the road, and at their destination, whether it is electricity, fuel, or simply a refreshing break for themselves — Alexela’s broad product portfolio creates the right conditions for all of this.

We understand that, as a large company, we play an important role both in Estonia’s economy and in the lives of the people here. That is why we support Estonia by empowering culture, sport, and charity.

We are making the world a better place! Come, let’s do it together.

Strategy and direction

Alexela keeps pace with changing mobility and evolving customer needs. In 2025, we sold 176 GWh of biomethane. As a transport fuel, biomethane helps reduce the carbon footprint of the transport sector and is currently the most suitable solution for decarbonising heavy transport in Nordic conditions. Alexela’s public EV charging infrastructure has also grown rapidly, reaching 450 charging connectors.

  • We reward reusability — at Alexela, hot drinks are cheaper when you bring your own cup. In nearly all of our café-stores, there is now also a possibility to wash your favourite cup right next to the coffee machine.

  • We created coffee cups featuring works by Estonian artists to show that reuse can truly stand out. Innovation enables sustainability, which is why we have created a range of smart digital solutions such as the Alexela app, loyalty campaigns, and smart payment solutions in the app.

  • We offer an electricity package based on renewable energy.

How do we help customers reduce their footprint?

 

  1. We produce biomethane from local agricultural waste based on circular economy principles and sell it at our stations, thereby helping to reduce the carbon footprint of the heavy transport sector in particular.

  2. We are developing EV charging capabilities for public use as well as for private and business customers — we offer a full EV charging service for private and business customers to accelerate the transition to lower-emission mobility.

  3. We produce renewable energy, offer customers smart energy management services, and provide an electricity package based on renewable energy.

Coffee cups featuring Estonian art

Single-use plastic products have a significant impact on the environment and human health. The European Plastics Strategy prioritises reducing plastic products, as this helps decrease carbon emissions and dependence on imported fossil fuels.

Alexela aims to reduce the environmental impact of its operations by developing the circular economy, contributing to energy security, and launching projects that reduce its carbon footprint. Among other things, we have set a goal to phase out single-use coffee cups by 2030 at the latest.

The company has a strategy to reduce the amount of single-use packaging and plastic bags placed on the market, which includes specific measurable targets:

  • At Alexela, only paper bags and reusable fabric bags are sold;

  • We encourage the use of personal cups through relevant calls to action, campaigns, and a lower price;

  • In selected locations, we offer a reusable cup option when purchasing hot drinks;

  • We are gradually creating convenient reusable cup washing facilities next to coffee machines.

Single-use tableware is no longer used in Alexela advertisements, and campaigns are directed towards reusable tableware. The company cooperates with many organisations, including Pandipakend. We have developed a code of conduct and a reporting channel for violations.
