International Cooperation

Published by Annika Johannesson ·

Swedenergy aims to influence political decisions at the national level in Sweden, but also at an international level. We monitor on European energy and climate policies in order to safeguard the investments 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 on the international, European, and Nordic arena.
