Sweden sets out its green energy future
In its final report, the Swedish Energy Commission recommends extending subsidies for wind energy and increasing the energy tax to fund lower taxes for nuclear and hydro.
From 2019, Swedish energy will increase by 4.2 Swedish øre / kWb (EUR 0.043). The increase, which corresponds to 9 percent of the 2017 levy rate, will increasingly finance the elimination of the thermal tax which until now was been applied to nuclear power plants, as well as lowering the property tax for hydro plants.
