The energy transition is key to ensuring the world''s biggest polluting sectors – heavy industry and transport – accelerate the adoption of green energy. However, embracing a multi-fuel future does not simply involve new energy sources; it also requires resilient digital ...
In this review of Sweden''s energy policies, the IEA looks at how the country is managing its energy transition, as well as how this transition affects energy security. Sweden''s electricity system – based on nuclear, hydro and a growing share of wind power – is nearly fossil‑free. The country, which is well interconnected with its ...
Our study covers 2000–2008. The four sectors we analyze consume about 75% of the end-use energy in Swedish industry in 2010 and are referred to as heavy industries (Thollander et al., 2013). Descriptive statistics of the …
Sweden ranked second in the Global Innovation Index. 2030. Goal: The Swedish transport sector is fossil-free. 2045. Goal: Sweden is fossil-free and, thus, climate-neutral. Last updated on 23 October 2023. Share with your friends. Lowering emissions is key to saving the climate. Sweden manages to combine high energy use with low …
the industrial energy use in Sweden in 2013 adds up to about 40 percent of total end-use energy (Swedish Energy Agency, 2015). Hence, further research on producer-side rebound effect is deeply needed. In this study, we aim to fill part of this gap by estimating
This study analyses the trends in energy use and CO2 emissions for 19 sub-sectors in the Swedish service sectors following the classification of the International Standard Industrial ...

This ambitious transition for the steel industry is in its early stages. If the challenges of the HYBRIT transition are successfully tackled, it could provide a near-zero-emission solution for steel production in Sweden – and a model for heavy industry transitions elsewhere in the world. Press release on HYBRIT from the Swedish Energy …
A new report by researchers from SEI, which hosts the Stockholm Sustainable Finance Centre, shows that it will not be especially demanding to meet the investment needs for decarbonizing heavy industry in Sweden: around SEK 66 billion of investments additional to those needed to maintain current production levels, using …

Energy efficiency improvement (EEI) benefits the climate and matters for energy security. The potential emission and energy savings due to EEI may however not fully materialize due to the rebound effect. In this study, we measure the size of rebound effect for the two energy types fuel and electricity within the four most energy intensive sectors in Sweden …
This paper analyses the trends in energy consumption and CO2 emissions as a result of energy efficiency improvements in Swedish manufacturing industries between 1993 and 2008.
Contact The Swedish energy agency. +46 16-544 20 00. The energy system is always in balance. This means energy input is always equal to the energy used, including losses. Energy losses in the system can come from conversion and transmission, or that energy commodities are used for other purposes.
They also show that barriers to energy efficiency in the studied sectors, such as the cost and risk of production disruptions, lack of access to capital funding, lack of submetering, play an ...

In 2020, China produced 1.065 billion tons of crude steel, accounting for 56.4% of the world total, 7 and consumed 995 million tons of steel, accounting for 56.2%. In the same year, Chinaʼs steel industry emitted about 15% of the countryʼs total carbon emissions, and over 60% of total global steel carbon emissions.

Circle K has opened another 16 charge points for heavy-duty vehicles in Sweden. Spread across five pit stops on key transit routes, these join a growing network of truck charging hubs emerging in Sweden. The latest additions by Circle K are in Hudiksvall, Mantorp, Malmö, Spillepengen and Bollebygd. All chargers deliver up to 360 kW.

Furthermore, we find 2 CO intensity and fuel and electricity share as the two main determinants of rebound effect in Swedish heavy industry. Our results seems to imply that it matters both to what extent and where to promote EEI, as the rebound effect varies between sectors as well as between firms within sectors.
In this study, we measure the size of the rebound effect for fuel and electricity within the four most energy intensive sectors in Sweden: pulp and paper, basic iron and steel, chemical, and mining. We use a detailed firm-level panel data set for 2000–2008 and apply Stochastic Frontier Analysis (SFA) for measuring the rebound effect.
Sweden has long had a can and bottle deposit system that gives people money back when they recycle – since 1984 for aluminium cans, and since 1994 for plastic bottles. Each year Swedes recycle more than 2 billion bottles and cans using the so-called pant system. It even has its own verb in Swedish, panta.
