In this morning’s broadcast of BBC News Business Daily on Northvolt, our very own Eva Andersson shared her insights on the Northvolt crisis and the broader cleantech landscape.

đź’ˇ Our message: There is a lot of strong innovation happening in the Nordics, and the strength of our cleantech ecosystem goes far beyond any single company.

As Eva highlights in the segment: “It’s concerning when a major company faces difficulties, but I also don’t think one company could make or break the entire sector. Last year alone there were over 200 investments in cleantech in only Sweden, and looking back historically we do have a strong legacy of environmental work and early integration of environmental concerns into industries, goals and policies”.

We truly hope this isn’t the end of Northvolt’s journey, but it’s a good reminder that the Nordic green industry is much bigger than any one company and that there is a lot of strong innovation out there.
