Country / jurisdiction: Sweden · Year: 1998 · Status: In force · Level: National · Type: Voluntary

Since 1998, state support is provided to municipalities that offer energy counselling services. The purpose of the support measures is to facilitate the spread of objective information about energy supply, energy distribution and energy consumption in order to lower the use of electricity. The counselling is directed at the general public, enterprises and local organizations. In addition, regional energy offices coordinate and support the work of energy counsellors.

As of 1 February 2008, the statute on support to municipal energy counselling was amended, extended the counselling service to include climate counselling. The role of the energy and climate counsellors was also clarified, in order to ensure their work is impartial and free from commercial interests. With the new statute on support it is also possible to work with the municipality own building stock should the municipality partly finance the counselling. The amendment also extended counselling services to small and medium-sized enterprises.

The basic amount of money given to each municipality increased from SEK 225 000 to SEK 280 000 per year, while additional amounts are the same as earlier. Energy and climate counsellors follow training provided by the Swedish Energy Agency. Currently (2016) there are energy counsellors in all of Sweden's 290 municipalities. In addition to this, there are 14 regional energy offices, coordinating the activities of the individual municipal counselors.

The $7 Trillion AI Boom Is Turning Into The Energy Trade of the Century

You might think that Shark Tank’s “Mr. Wonderful,” Kevin O’Leary, is betting it all on AI, but he is not. He is betting on the $5+ trillion in infrastructure required to run it, and that’s where big capital is flowing now. And he’s betting on Bitzero (NASDAQ: AIBZ) to be one of the first to break AI’s biggest chokepoint: power. Bitzero was looking further ahead while most of the rest of the market was narrowly focused on AI software and semiconductors. As a result, on May 5th, Bitzero…

Oil Markets Are Pricing A Supply Surge That Isn’t Guaranteed

Crude oil prices are in freefall after the United States and Iran agreed on a ceasefire, set to last 60 days. Traders expect the ceasefire to unleash an avalanche of crude, and indeed, tankers are leaving the Persian Gulf in growing numbers. And yet Iran just struck a commercial ship in Hormuz. Bloomberg reported earlier this week that the ceasefire prompted huge discounts in available crude cargoes, noting how Angolan crude was selling at a $10 discount to dated Brent—for the first time in a decade. Not only this, but Chinese refiners were…

The World's Biggest Energy Bet Is No Longer on Fossil Fuels

For years, critics of the energy transition have made essentially the same argument. Renewable energy was supposedly too expensive, too dependent on subsidies, too intermittent, and too vulnerable to survive a serious energy security crisis. Sooner or later, they argued, governments and investors would return to the comfort of oil, gas, and coal. The latest figures from the International Energy Agency suggest the opposite is happening. According to the IEA's newly released World Energy Investment 2026 report, global investment in clean energy has…

The World Is Racing to Develop New Nuclear Fuels

In the age of the nuclear renaissance, several countries are strategising to significantly increase their nuclear energy capacity over the coming decades, as part of efforts to diversify their energy mix and boost long-term energy security. However, securing fuel to power operations has been complicated, particularly following the introduction of sanctions on Russian energy products. Now, alternative uranium fuels offer promise for the nuclear energy industry. Nuclear fission, used in all existing nuclear power plants, is the process in which an…

China Eyes a Major Opportunity in Post-War Iran

Beijing is positioning itself to lead the post-war reconstruction effort in Tehran - a move analysts suggest could secure China long-term access to critical Iranian oil reserves. The diplomatic groundwork was laid during a recent meeting in New Delhi between Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi and the deputy secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, according to Nikkei Asia. The talks underscore China's broader strategy to expand its economic and diplomatic footprint in the Middle East amid the vacuum left in the wake of one failed US…
