More and more Swedish companies, organisations and private individuals are opting to voluntarily offset greenhouse gas emissions caused by their activities.

The Swedish Energy Agency has delivered a report to the Oslo Group on Energy Statistics on how to include heat pumps in national and international energy statistics.

It is possible to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by both 25 and 30 per cent by 2020, with limited effects on the Swedish economy.

The EU's Emissions Trading Scheme can have an important part to play in reducing global emissions of greenhouse gases after 2012. This is the conclusion presented in a joint report by the Swedish Energy Agency and the Swedish Environmental Protection Agency, which has been submitted to the Swedish Government.
