As we outline in our policy asks (see p. 9), battery storage is still facing many obstacles across most European countries, including missing targets, market price signals, frameworks enabling
Finnish developer Taaleri Energia and Landinfra Energy will develop 1.9GW of hybrid solar, energy storage and wind projects in Sweden.
In the same year, the Swedish Energy Agency was entrusted with several new tasks under the national electrification strategy adopted by the Government in February 2022. In the 2023 Budget Bill, the Swedish Energy Agency received funds to carry out a nuclear research effort.
Table 8 Calculation of the cumulative savings requirement for the period 2030-2021 based on average final energy consumption for Sweden for the years 2018-2016 (373 TWh), in TWh. As shown in the table, this means that Sweden’s total cumulative energy savings requirement for the period 2030-2021 amounts to 237 TWh.
RES Nordics CEO Matilda Afzelius added: “Energy storage will play an increasingly important role across Sweden. RES has worldwide experience in battery storage projects and has delivered more than 500 MW to support a range of grid functions.
In 2024, the programme funds amount to at least SEK 355 million. The programme is implemented in cooperation between several actors, including the Swedish Energy Agency.
The table shows that the total amount of cumulative energy savings from Swedish instruments over the whole period 2030-2021 is estimated at around 167 TWh. This results in a gap of around 70 TWh against the savings requirement (237 TWh) to be achieved in Sweden for the same period.
The countries had a common target for the electricity certification scheme to contribute to 28.4 TWh of renewable electricity production by the end of 2020. Sweden committed to finance 15.2 TWh and Norway 13.2 TWh, but it was up to the market to decide where and when the new production would take place.
