  6. Decoupling: reduced emission, growing economy

  7. Renewable energy use and goals for 2020

  8. Increasing share of renewable energy consumption in Sweden

  9. Decarbonising Sweden Estimated reduction between 1990 and 2020 (millions of tonnes) Greenhouse gases in carbon equivalents.

  10. Regional energy and climate strategy • The energy and climate initiatives in Östergötlandare to: • build on the strengths of Östergötland • give due consideration to the regional environmental targets and conserve resources • create sustained regional growth and be a model to others • initiate research and development and apply knowledge.

  11.
