Sweden’s largest solar park provides more than just renewable energy. It offers a unique investment opportunity to hundreds of thousands of citizens and a way to take personal action in the fight against climate change.
This solar project knits together regional history centuries apart and is a shining example of sustainable energy generation.
Our rich European history is full of well-documented stories about settlers moving across the continent to look for fertile land with better prospects for shelter and resources to keep warm and cook food. This 21st-century account sees Swedish HSB Cooperative leveraging its 650,000 strong community to create a brighter, more sustainable future with solar energy.
But, history became an even more symbolic aspect of this project, with a surprise twist in the tale during the park’s construction. Discover the full story in our case study.
The 14MW of installed capacity, generating 13-gigawatt hours annually, serving around 4600 typical dwellings for the community, also goes some way towards Sweden’s ambitious program for clean, renewable energy.
