Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Ministry of Infrastructure oversees the energy policy.
The Ministry of the Environment is responsible for the climate policy.
The Ministry of Enterprise and Innovation (MEI) is tasked with managing the state-owned company portfolio.
Energy Supply
Gas:
Sweden does not produce natural gas; the majority of the resource is imported from Denmark, predominantly from the Tyra Field in the North Sea. In 2019, the country's gas imports were around 1.2 bcm. Sweden has two small LNG regasification terminals. One (470 mcm/year, commissioned in 2011) is in Brunnsviksholme (Nynäshamn), near Stockholm, and is not connected to the gas transmission system.
Energy Prices
Electricity:
The average price of electricity for households is 45% lower than the EU average (2018) and for industry it is the lowest in the EU (21% lower than the EU average).
The energy tax on electricity was introduced in 1973 and stands at SEK 35c/kWh (€3.3c/kWh) in 2020.
Energy Consumption
In 2019, total energy consumption per capita was 4.6 toe, which is 48% above the EU average. At 11 700 kWh, the country's electricity consumption per capita is the second highest in the EU (2.1 times higher than the EU average).

Issues & Prospects
According to the Swedish Energy Agency's (STEM) long-term energy scenarios 2018, the country's total consumption should decrease by 16%-20% by 2050.
