A weekday bagel. Dependable, satisfying, no fuss.
Summary
Swedish industry faces a dual crisis from global economic turbulence (war in Europe, US tariffs) and political uncertainty. The Tidö government parties have created doubt about long-term climate and energy policy while spending 70 billion SEK subsidizing household services instead of supporting fossil-free industrial investments. The authors propose three reforms to stimulate investments in Swedish fossil-free industry, calling for clearer debate on reducing fossil dependency, diversifying to new markets, and increasing investment pace.
