The Social Democrats want to launch “people’s home”. It would be possible by the state buying in a “very large share” of the electricity that Swedish households are expected to use and then auctioning it out on long contracts.
According to the Social Democrats, this would lead to a lower and more stable price, around 40 öre per kilowatt hour.
– Our proposal for Folkhemsel means an electricity market that is on the side of ordinary people. Where Swedish households receive a low and stable electricity price for a large part of their basic consumption of electricity. Such contracts already exist for large electricity customers and now we want to ensure that ordinary people get the same opportunities. We expect the government to quickly take our proposal forward, Magdalena Andersson, party leader of the Social Democrats in a press release.

Hello, please write why Volvo must be fined in the USA. Kind regards, MATHIAS
Mathias Moller
Hi Mathias! Volvo is considered to have failed in its accident and safety reporting in the US.
More precisely, it is about “late damage reports, slow recalls and late error messages to affected vehicle owners”, according to the Swedish truck industry magazine Pro.
In addition, they allegedly provided insufficient information about accidents where people were killed or injured in their trucks or buses.
Why does the media write so much about the banks? eg bank crash, people just get more worried and people withdraw their money and then we get a bank crash, doesn’t the media have a responsibility here?
Mats Andersson
Understand your point Mats.
But it would be direct misconduct on our part not to report what we know about what is happening. Especially with the aim of influencing events by keeping people uninformed…
