World Potential (SWEDEN)

Install Capacity

The installed generating capacity at the end of 1995 was 16,150 MW in hydroelectric stations, 10,050 MW in nuclear and 7,300 MW in thermal power stations. Also about 200 wind power stations of together 67 MW are installed.

The production of power is practically equally divided between on the one hand the Government through Vattenfall AB and on the other hand power companies owned by industries, municipalities and other non-governmental bodies. All power producing companies are joined in the Swedish Power Association, formed in 1909.
