District heating from waste heat in Skärblacka Miljöpris 2011 - Billerud AB i Skärblacka Billerud paper mill Motivering Genom att inse att det går att påverka miljön även utanför företagets huvudsakliga affärsområde, utmärker sig företaget gentemot övriga nominerade. Med aktiva steg för att undersöka möjligheter både framåt och bakåt i produktionsleden, samt att de tar tillvara på spillvärmen i form av fjärrvärmeförsörjning, är företaget ett föredöme för ett aktivt miljöarbete. Företaget har även insett nyttan av samarbete och med hjälp av sin miljöpanel lyckats med bedriften att ha sin verksamhet i enlighet med de krav som ställs mitt i ett samhälle.
