International Cooperation
Published by Annika Johannesson ·
Swedenergy aims to influence political decisions at the national level in Sweden, but also on an international level. We monitor European energy and climate policies in order to safeguard the interests of our members. Another important focus is the development of a sustainable energy system, from a social, environmental, and economic perspective.
In order to maximise our impact, Swedenergy cooperates with other organisations in the Nordic, European and international arena.
