“…no house should need oil for heating, and no driver should need to turn solely to gasoline.”

So said Mona Sahlin, the Swedish Minister for Sustainable Development. This was a quote from 2006, a time when 26% of their electricity demands came from renewable sources, and their plans were to free themselves from a reliance on fossil fuels entirely by 2020. And it seems they’re still on track. They’ve identified the huge advantages that Sweden will have over other nations when oil prices start to rise out of control and this is driving their strategy. Makes good sense to me. A massive avoidable economic bust in the UK is looming and our government won’t doing anything till it’s too late. Sound familiar?
