Why is electricity important in Sweden?

Electricity is a prerequisite for societal development and achieving climate policy goals. Sweden will consume more than twice as much electricity in the next 25 years, from the current 140 TWh to approximately 310 TWh in 2045. The most important energy source for new electricity generation capacity during this time is wind power.

How much electricity will Sweden use in 2045?

Sweden will consume more than twice as much electricity in the next 25 years, from the current 140 TWh to approximately 310 TWh in 2045. The most important energy source for new electricity generation capacity during this time is wind power. But the amount of electricity supplied to the electricity grid depends on how much the wind blows.

Will Ralshede Kraft add a solar PV power plant?

Ralshede Kraft plans to add a 30MW solar PV power plant to the site in future as well. The announcement indicated the BESS would both optimise the output of the wind project (42.6MW, comprising seven Siemens Gamesa 6.6MW wind turbines) as well as provide ancillary services to Sweden’s transmission system operator (TSO) Svenska kraftnät.
