The organization Drivkraft believes in the need for a green transition and long-term perspective from the politicians. This is what Jessica Alenius, CEO of Drivkraft Sweden, thinks. The business represents companies in the fuel industry. Despite reduced taxes on fuel and a reduced reduction obligation in the autumn budget, the industry is dissatisfied and worried about political fluctuations.
The government's decision to lower the tax on petrol and diesel and reduce the reduction obligation renews the uncertainty within the industry. Jessica Alenius points out that these changes make the transition from fossil fuels to biofuels and fast charging for electric cars more difficult, which is the goal of Drivkraft Sverige's member companies.
Although lower prices would normally benefit fuel sales, Alenius argues that long-term rules are necessary to enable a smooth transition. Political fluctuations and lack of predictability in decision-making make it difficult for companies to plan and invest in sustainable alternatives.
Drivkraft Sverige emphasizes the importance that Swedish companies need stable rules of the game in order to be able to switch to more environmentally friendly alternatives and support the green transition.
More inspiration:
What is needed is certainly not just price changes; it is a neoclassical myth. What is needed are public investments and orders in a renewed infrastructure.
We need to get away from the excessive need for transport. Global trade as well as work commuting needs to be properly reduced. Cities within walking distance and local markets need to be expanded. Like organic farming.
Then biofuels and the like can complete the picture. But alone it's like spitting in the sea.
Agree with. The fuel organization wanted a green transition.
