Swedish companies go bankrupt by going green tech https://bit.ly/3D6KNHx The Vrigstad company made a green transition receives an electricity bill of over one million a month Updated yesterday 20:19 Published yesterday 13:59 The family company Lundbergs Pressgjuteri switched from fossil fuels for machines to electricity - now they are hit hard. Normally, they have an electricity bill of 1-2 million per year - now they pay the same price - fixed per month. The company from Vrigstad made a green transition, which means working for a reduced environmental and climate impact through, for example, emission reductions and efficient, non-toxic resource flows. Cajsa Lundberg, who is CEO of the company that has been running for three generations, says that it is not only her company that is affected. - It's not just us. It's not just the foundries, it affects all process industries, says Cajsa Lundberg. "The green transition in Sweden is thrown back 15 years" She is worried that the current situation will affect the green transition in Sweden. - It sends a bad signal to those who intend to make the green transition and the new green investments that must be made. How dare one do it considering that this could happen? We cannot manage the operation and we cannot pay the electricity bill for the conversion we have made. There is no money left to continue, she says.
