Eolus at the Liberal Party’s National Meeting
Over the weekend, Eolus participated as an exhibitor at the Liberal Party’s national meeting in sunny Karlstad. We were there to discuss how the transition to a fossil-free society can be facilitated through large-scale expansion of renewable energy.
Sweden’s electricity demand is expected to more than double over the next 20 years. Our message to the elected representatives of the ruling party included the potential of wind power to play a key role in the climate transition, as well as the challenges we see where more projects are stopped by municipalities before they can undergo environmental assessment.
With over 500 of the Liberal Party’s politicians present over the weekend, we met elected representatives from across the country and got their perspective on local wind power opinion. We experienced great engagement on the issues, and the insights we gained from the Liberals and other meetings with politicians will be very important as we continue to develop our renewable projects. We look forward to strengthening our cooperation with local stakeholders to jointly contribute to a more sustainable future.
Eolus was represented in Karlstad by Stefan Gustavsson, Public Affairs Manager, and Oscar Wiktorsson, Communication Specialist.
