💨 Abstract

Sweden should prioritize building more onshore wind parks to meet its electricity demand and net-zero emissions goal by 2045, according to a leading think tank. New nuclear power plants are considered the most expensive solution, while a mix of wind, solar, hydropower, and existing nuclear reactors would meet demand without increasing electricity prices. The government is planning to give cheap loans to nuclear developers, but the think tank suggests focusing on improving the electricity grid and regulatory framework instead.
