Impact of COVID-19
The challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated several megatrends such as digital connectivity and automation as businesses looked for ways to continue operating with fewer employees present. Due to travel limitations caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and a general environment of weaker demand, notably for fossil fuels, the conventional power generating, and renewables markets experienced difficulties in 2020. With continued efforts to improve grid reliability and resilience with rising renewables, demand from electrical distribution utilities was resilient during a pandemic.
Revenues dropped by 7% in 2020. (6 percent in local currencies). Due to the COVID-19 pandemic's effects on company activity and a large decline in book-and-bill activities, revenues fell across all business areas. Despite these challenges, revenues in the Electrification and Motion Business Areas reflected good execution of the order backlog as well as resilience in the short-cycle businesses, particularly in the second half of the year.
