2018 year’s theme

Reports tell us the threat of global warming is increasing. But so is the opportunity for wind energy to offer a sustainable solution. While simultaneously electrifying domestic industry and transportation, export of green electricity can lessen emissions substantially thanks to changes made in the European emission allowance trading system. In Sweden, the value of investments will amount to at least 20 billion Euro to meet current goals alone, and if the remaining obstacles are eliminated the business will deliver even more, even sooner.
