Local Collaboration and Impact
Sweden needs to rapidly expand renewable electricity generation to achieve its climate goals, secure existing jobs, and enable new industrial opportunities. Land-based wind and solar power are the fastest and most cost-effective solutions – developed without financial subsidies.
Local power production strengthens electricity access and reduces bottlenecks in the transmission grid, creating greater security and predictability for local businesses.
In addition to supporting industry, the municipality, local community, and nearby residents will also receive economic benefits. The Swedish Government and the Sweden Democrats have agreed on a compensation model in line with the national inquiry “The Value of Wind”, which proposes that municipalities receive compensation equivalent to the property tax value of the wind farm — while both local communities and nearby residents also receive financial benefits.
