Onshore Wind Power

Onshore wind energy is a significant and established part of Sweden's energy supply. According to the energy policy targets set by the Riksdag in 2024, Sweden is expected to achieve an electricity consumption of at least 300 TWh by 2045, which means more than doubling compared to the current level of around 140 TWh.

Together with solar power, wind power is the fastest growing power generation in Sweden. In 2024, wind power produced about 42 TWh of electricity, equivalent to about 25 percent of the country's total electricity production.

The electrification of Sweden means a radical transformation of society and requires the creation of local utility. Onshore wind is one of the most cost-effective types of energy from a production perspective.

Renewable Sweden has extensive experience in the development of wind power projects, with solid internal expertise in areas such as screening and land acquisition, feasibility studies, environmental assessments, environmental trials, and dialogue and anchoring before the project's complex processes.

We offer technical due diligence to ensure successful transactions and optimize value for both sellers and buyers. Please contact us if you would like support in your wind farm project.

Offshore Wind Power

Sweden has good conditions for offshore wind power thanks to its long coastline. The market is currently in a challenging phase but has great future potential, especially in southern Sweden.

A state investigation has proposed an auction system in which specific areas are designated by the state and projects awarded by auction. At the same time, there is a growing realisation that new projects cannot be realised without state support or risk-sharing.

Renewable Sweden has extensive experience in offshore wind energy and expertise in, among other things, location investigations, feasibility studies, environmental assessments, environmental trials, and dialogue and anchoring throughout the project process.

Please contact us for support in your wind power project.

Solar Power

Solar power is a rapidly growing part of Sweden's electricity production. In 2024, about 4.4 TWh of solar electricity was produced, representing 2.6 percent of total electricity generation — a significant increase over the previous year. Solar power is often easier to obtain permits for than other types of energy, but long processing times can still create challenges.

Solar power is particularly widespread in southern Sweden, where solar radiation is higher and solar power has good conditions to grow significantly in Sweden. According to the Energy Agency's latest forecast, solar electricity production is expected to increase to 9 TWh per year by 2028, doubling in just a few years.

Since its inception, Renewable Sweden has been specialists in wind energy, but our expertise and product portfolio have grown in line with technological developments. Today, solar power is one of our largest business areas, and our dedicated solar team is active in many different projects.

We have extensive experience in the development of solar parks and have expertise in screening, site investigation, feasibility studies, environmental assessments, environmental trials as well as dialogue and anchoring in connection with the complex processes of the projects.

We offer technical DueDiligence to ensure successful transactions and optimize value for both sellers and buyers. As members of the trade association Green Power Sweden, we have a strong market presence and actively contribute to the development of sustainable solar power in Sweden.

Please contact us for support in your solar project.

Retro Vind

The word retro comes from the French rétro/rétrospectif which means to look back. Today, the word retro is used primarily as a designation of things from an earlier epoch. The word retro is also associated with the cherishing and appreciation of something older.

Retro Wind is concerned with the development, management and brokering of wind energy facilities that are beginning to reach mature age. With our experience and expertise in onshore wind power, we explore the possibilities that exist for your facility.

We identify opportunities and risks for either generational change, life extension, liquidation or disposal of your assets and develop a strategy and action plan for further work.

With Retro Wind we want to contribute to the sustainable and profitable use of older technologies and to the efficient use of Sweden's best wind modes.

Please contact us to find out about your possibilities.

    Optimize your wind mode with more energy services
    Today, there are more options for supplementing energy production. It can be about solar power, battery storage and other support services. Sometimes these options are more advantageous than going solely on wind power.

Why is it time to be future-proof?

Many wind farms are often built on very good wind conditions in southern Sweden. As an owner, you can choose a variety of strategies:
As an owner, you can choose different strategies for repowering:

  • Life extension through replacement of existing parts
  • Partial repowering - change to more modern parts, e.g. new engine housing
  • Total repowering by switching to new works within the current permit, depending on the new permit


Future-proof wind modes help meet tomorrow's electricity needs

There is no doubt that society's energy needs will increase. The expansion of new production is necessary and is happening, but can be time consuming. Up to 100 TWh, equivalent to about 60% of Sweden's electricity consumption, will reach its economic life in the next 20 — 30 years. Part of the solution is the lifetime extension and efficiency of existing fossil-free energy production, which has also been identified as a priority by the EU Member States.

Energy storage/BESS

As electricity use increases in Sweden, the way electricity is transmitted, stored and used is changing. This places new demands on the infrastructure of the electricity system. The increased proportion of weather-dependent power in Sweden means that the infrastructure needs to be more flexible and quickly adapted than before.

An important part of electrification is the addition of new storage capacity. The need to store energy is greater than ever. On an overall level, it is about optimising electricity generation and creating balance. At the local and regional level, storage can help stabilize the grid by storing surplus energy during periods of low demand or high production and then releasing this stored energy when demand is higher or when output from weather-dependent power strokes is low.

Building a battery storage unit in combination with a solar farm or wind farm requires planning and coordination between technical, economic and regulatory aspects. We can help you evaluate the location and infrastructure to ensure the right location, adequate space and safety distance, as well as to seek the required environmental or building permits.

Energy parks are becoming more common, and virtually all wind and solar projects that we develop incorporate BESS (Battery Energy Storage Systems) as a follow-on activity.

Please contact us for support in your energy parks.
