    That’s what’s happening. But it takes time. And it won’t really change anything unless the Swedish and/or the EU energy market or pricing model is reformed.

    If the system isn’t changed the demand for Swedish fossil free electricity will just go up in Germany and Denmark, since their energy is much more expensive. Swedish households will pay for lower energy prices in Germany and in Denmark, plus greater margins for private and public Swedish energy producers. And the households only get more expensive energy in return. It’s just a really bad deal for Swedish households at the moment.

    The only good thing with the current situation is that Germany uses less fossil fuels and that it might become slightly cheaper to import German goods, because of the larger energy supply.
