How Sweden can meet increasing electricity demand

Sweden needs to increase its electricity production significantly by 2050 to secure the electrification of society and industry. However, in addition to increasing production, improved efficiency, better decision-making and a will…

Floating wind power at sea

SeaTwirl is looking to become the market leader in marine wind power. The company’s proprietary wind turbine, which rotates like a floating carousel on the surface of the ocean, has already garnered a great deal of attention. In p…

Icy winds will test tomorrow’s wind turbines

Northern Sweden is home to vast, uninhabited areas with energy-rich winds; however, the technology required to handle the extreme cold and icy winds is as yet untested. The Uljabuouda Cold Climate Test Centre gives us that ab…

Wooden wind turbines deliver climate-neutral energy

The world's energy needs continue to increase, and an increasing share of Europe's energy comes from wind power. In Gothenburg, there is a company that has the recipe for climate-neutral wind power: Modvion develops tall wind turb…

Combining electrification and biofuel for an effective transition

In order to meet the climate goals, an array of fossil fuel products need to be phased out and replaced with renewable ones. But since the availability of these is limited, it is important to use the resources as intelligently as …

Packaging that acts and reacts

How to cyber secure critical infrastructure

The ransomware attack in May 2021 on Colonial Pipeline, the United States’ largest pipeline for refined oil products, shows how vulnerable to cyber attacks socially important infrastructure can be. Within the space of a few hours,…

Will we be able to meet energy demand?

Sweden currently produces a surplus of electricity, but to cope with crises and increased energy demand in the future, it is important to create local and flexible systems. “We need to make the system robust,” says Elisabet Falem…

From electricity to X – for the climate

In 25 years, Sweden will be climate neutral. To achieve this, the electrification of large parts of industry and the transport sector will be essential. Various technologies used to convert electricity to heating, fuel or che…

Energiklivet makes electrification an opportunity for Sweden

Sweden is on the threshold of a gigantic leap in electrification. In order to quickly translate goals and visions into action, RISE runs the Energiklivet (Eng: Energy Leap) initiative, where authorities, energy companies, battery …

The power electronics of the future will aid the green transition

To meet our climate goals, we need to make more efficient use of the energy we have. Part of this will be the development of smarter and more efficient power electronics – the components that convert electrical power into usable f…

How can the electricity market create the right conditions for substantially increased electricity production?

Sweden needs to increase its electricity production by the equivalent of about 300,000 electrically heated houses. Each year. An increase that is guaranteed to rattle electricity market producers and consumers alike. – “Perm…
