Credited from: BBC

  • The **Northvolt battery plant** in Skellefteå was anticipated to be Europe's largest green facility, launched in 2022 with significant backing.
  • However, it faced **financial issues**, reporting debts of $5.8 billion and recently laying off a quarter of its workforce due to a global decline in **electric vehicle demand**.
  • Analysts attribute these troubles to factors including poor leadership, missed production targets, and competitive pricing from **Chinese manufacturers**.
  • Despite these challenges, experts believe Sweden's reputation in the **clean tech sector** remains strong, with over 200 sustainable projects funded in 2023.
  • Government officials are calling for **EU-wide support** rather than national bailouts, highlighting a disparity with global competitors in the green energy sector.
