Svedberga, near Helsingbor in Sweden, will be the site of a European Energy solar park after approval by the Land and Environmental Court.

Environmental Litigation

Svedberga will have a 128.5MW solar park approved by the Växjö Land and Environmental Court. The construction permit was under suspension by the Skane County Council. However, the Land and Environmental Court considers that environmental protection is now sufficient.

The court is based on the comprehensive environmental impact assessment with the implementation of the park in Svedberga. Peter Braun, head of European Energy’s projects in Sweden, says:

“We are ready for construction to begin. The goal is to have the entire park completed by 2023 and in service by 2024.”

The solar park covers a total area of 232.5 hectares, only one third of which will be used for solar energy production.

Thus, the rest of the land will be used for agricultural crops. In addition, the company plans to plant numerous trees at the edge of the park.

Sweden’s largest solar park

The rest of the land will be used for agricultural crops. In addition, the company plans to plant numerous trees at the edge of the park. Finally, Svedberga will be the largest fossil fuel-free power generation capacity in the Skane region.

This is another step in the country’s drive to replace nuclear power with solar. The Svedberga park will meet the annual consumption of 35,000 residential households. The goal is to have the entire fleet completed by 2023 and in production by 2024.
