Clean power technology costs for wind, solar and battery technologies are expected to fall further by 2-11% in 2025, reports BloombergNEF.
Sweden’s electricity generation in 2025 remains dominated by low-carbon sources, chiefly hydropower and nuclear energy, with a growing contribution from wind power. The country has virtually eliminated fossil fuels from power generation (over 98% of electricity is now produced from clean, carbon-free sources).
According to the most conservative scenarios, electricity consumption will be 150 TWh in 2050, which is less than the current electricity production in Sweden. The most extreme scenarios indicate an electricity consumption of almost 300 TWh, which is more than double of the current annual electicity consumption.
If only southern Sweden were to save 5 per cent, the price there would fall by 40 öre/kWh. In the EU, it has been agreed that each country should reduce electricity consumption by 5 per cent during hours of particularly high electricity consumption.
Electricity prices for end customers (households and businesses) in Sweden are composed of several components. In general, the total price a consumer pays is split into three main parts: (1) the electricity supply cost (the energy itself), (2) the network charge (grid transmission/distribution fees), and (3) taxes and levies.
Alongside nuclear expansion, enhancing wind power generation can capitalize on its current contribution and bolster Sweden's clean energy portfolio. By focusing on these technologies, Sweden can secure a robust supply of green and sustainable electricity to meet future demands and continue its leadership in low-carbon energy use.
While managing generation costs, fluctuating demand, and market uncertainties presents challenges, a feasible path forward exists. Sweden's electricity demand may rise by more than 50% due to industrial electrification and green energy initiatives. EU cooperation is crucial for balancing Sweden's electricity supply and stabilizing market prices.
