The Nordic Region is aiming to retain its leading global position when it comes to green energy solutions. What role does Nordic co-operation play in overcoming the challenges of the energy crisis? How can we in the Nordics secure a supply of energy that’s sustainable and fair, and what can we learn from each other? A rapid transition to green energy is required if the Nordic Region is to achieve its ambitious climate goals and achieve its vision of being the most sustainable and integrated region in the world by 2030.
