Energy Scenario for Sweden 2050: Based on Renewable Energy Technologies and Sources

The scenario is based on the Swedish government’s vision of a 2050s Sweden with a sustainable and resource-efficient energy supply system free of net emissions of greenhouse gases. This presupposes a number of other conditions: Continued growth; production within Sweden of the resources used by the energy system to enable the country to balance its energy needs; and major attention to the environmental impact of forestry operations, wind power installations and plant operation.
