Transmission Transitions
Summary
The analysis examines the institutional regime of transmission grid development in Sweden to identify obstacles to achieving a decarbonized Nordic power system by 2050. While the current regime is generally capable of implementing necessary investments, specific barriers exist that require governance interventions to ensure the grid can support decarbonization goals.
Key insights
- The existing transmission grid development regime possesses the general capacity to execute the investments required for a decarbonized Nordic power system, although specific key barriers remain.
- The authors propose governance options to mitigate identified institutional barriers to enable the necessary transmission grid development for Nordic power grid decarbonization by 2050.
