Nordic Energy Solutions - new issue of "Green Growth the Nordic Way"
Energy policy, renewables and sustainable energy are key factors when it comes to solving the climate crisis. The way we organize our energy supply is vital to how we meet the challenges ahead and in the joint statement from the US-Nordic Leaders’ Summit in May, it was stressed that “the United States and the Nordic countries acknowledge the foundational role energy plays in our economies and that energy security is key for overall security”.
The Nordic countries were the first to decouple economic growth and climate emissions, showing a way to a more sustainable economy. In terms of integrating renewables in our electricity production, we are also already now where the International Energy Agency says the world needs to be in 2040 to stay below the two degree target set by the Paris Agreement.
