Abstract

Sweden is a leader in green mobility. Its automotive industry pursues practices of environmental sustainability through electrification, the use of renewable energy, and the application of circular economy principles. Intending to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050, Sweden has put in place a strong policy framework that supports low-carbon transport options. Volvo Cars, Scania, Polestar, and battery innovator Northvolt are leading Sweden's transition to green mobility. Renewable energy-powered production processes and battery recycling schemes contribute to reducing the carbon footprint of the Swedish automotive industry. This case explores Sweden’s transition to green mobility and addresses its automotive industry’s future challenges.
