What is our next major global energy innovation? It is very possible that it is among the ten specially selected cleantech start-up companies that compete in the Cleantech Open in Malmö today. More than 500 participants have signed up for the event and we hope to see the start of many business-to-investor relationships.

The Swedish Energy Agency's program, India-Sweden Innovations' Accelerator (ISIA), has since the beginning of 2013 resulted in a number of collaborations for Swedish innovation companies. While India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi visits Sweden, 12 Swedish innovation companies travel to India to present their solutions for the development of the energy system.

In May 2018, Sweden, the EU and the Nordic countries will together host major energy ministerial meetings. In connection with these meetings, the Öresund region will also host Nordic Clean Energy Week. Politicians, researchers and business representatives will come together to discuss future energy solutions.

The Swedish Energy Agency has granted funding of up to SEK 146 million to Northvolt Lab's planned pilot plant for large-scale battery manufacturing in Sweden. The decision is a major step towards a new domestic industry and a sustainable energy system.

The first decision in the Swedish Government's long-term venture The Industrial Leap, which the Swedish Energy Agency is responsible for, is now done. The project funded is a feasibility study for a pilot plant for fossil-free steel production, HYBRIT, where the Swedish Energy Agency provides support with SEK 9.7 million.
