’Skellefteå Kraft is on a
mission. Join us!’
There can never be too many green batteries. Especially if the goal is to make
Sweden’s energy system 100% renewable. So Skellefteå Kraft decided to invest in
the Northvolt battery factory in Skellefteå.
Northvolt Ett will be Europe’s largest
battery factory, making lithiumion batteries for electric cars and
energy storage. But this is not any old
battery factory – the circular model
has been used right from the start.
Skellefteå Kraft has been a driving
force in the work to build the battery
factory quickly. This meant providing
things like land, electricity networks,
district heating, cooling water, steam,
fibre connections and opportunities
to use waste heat.
Today, Skellefteå Kraft is a part
owner of the company and our
involvement will
continue
into the
future,
by supplying renewable electricity to
manufacture the cells in
the batteries.
”Our work building Northvolt
will help grow an entire cluster of
investments around green technology
and electrification. Together, this will
encourage significant local, regional
and national development towards a
renewable energy system,” says
Joachim Nordin, President and CEO
of Skellefteå Kraft (above right).
Renewable electric car pool
Another important step in Skellefteå
Kraft’s work is to make more
accessible electric transportation.
In Skellefteå, we want everyone to
drive renewably. With the renewable
electric car pool SK100, Skellefteå
Kraft wants to make it possible for
everyone to drive an electric car.
Because the electrification of vehicles
is part of the solution to the climate
challenge.
”We are convinced that everyone
must be helped if we are going to
transform Sweden into a country
that is powered by renewable energy.
Therefore, it is also obvious that we
will reuse and share our resources,”
says Catarina Hägglund, Head of
Sustainability and Chief of Staff at
Skellefteå Kraft (above).
Inspire others to do the same
The concept of the renewable electric
car pool SK100 is based on Skellefteå
Kraft renting out its electric cars to
the public after working hours.
Because just as we all share this
planet, the tools to save it should also
be everyone’s.
Together, we make the transition
to a renewable energy
system possible.
