Sweden is one of the world’s leading nations when it comes to innovating, implementing and exporting cleantech solutions.

Sweden has encouraged research and development

Sweden has been proactively pursuing and practicing policies that have encouraged research and development in water purification, sanitation, sewage and wastewater treatment, waste management and waste-to-energy, production of biofuels, as well as generation of renewable energy from wind, biomass and solar power.

First country to meet renewable energy targets

The continued push towards the development and implementation of cleantech solutions has enabled Sweden to become the first country in Europe to meet the renewable energy targets, set by the European Union (EU) for 2020, eight years ahead of schedule.
