Batteries enable the phasing out of fossil fuels and increase flexibility in the electricity system through energy storage. The Swedish battery industry is at the forefront. Sweden also has related strengths and opportunities in areas such as vehicles and electrical systems, as well as a strong mining cluster.
Batteries are a crucial piece of the puzzle if we are to achieve Sweden’s climate goals with net-zero emissions by 2045. Batteries enable the phasing out of fossil fuels and increase flexibility in the electricity system through energy storage. The Swedish battery industry is at the forefront.
For example, it has not been possible for energy storage to serve as a frequency reserve in Sweden (ENTSO-E and WGAS, 2018). Hence, this is a barrier for the deployment of energy storage. However, there are new changes in the Swedish balancing markets that will impact the possibilities for BESS to deliver frequency regulation.
13 February 2024 SWEDEN – The energy storages are being built in Falköping (16 MW), Karlskrona (16 MW), Katrineholm (20 MW), Mjölby (8 MW), Sandviken (20 MW), Vaggeryd (11 MW), Värnamo (20 MW) and Västerås (11 MW). A storage with a power of 20 MW correlates to what a Swedish town with 40,000 inhabitants on average consumes during peak hours.
The goal is that by 2045, Sweden should have net-zero GHG emissions to the atmosphere (Regeringskansliet, 2018). Within the electricity system, the targets are that in 2030, the energy use should be 50 % more efficient than in 2005, and in 2040, the electricity production should be from 100 % renewables.
But as the battery industry develops and grows in many countries simultaneously, investors, materials, and expertise become scarce. If Sweden is to succeed in the battery field, competence will be required from both Sweden and the rest of the world.
