Over the course of 2024, the European Investment Bank (EIB) and the European Investment Fund (EIF) continued to support Sweden’s economic development and climate initiatives through substantial investments.
Most Swedish firms – 73% – have taken actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and are more likely than businesses elsewhere in Europe to have invested in sustainable transport, according to a European Investment Bank (EIB) Group survey. Swedish companies also have done more than the European Union average in embracing digital technologies, new country results from the EIB Group Investment Survey (EIBIS) show.
The European Investment Bank (EIB) will lend the Swedish city of Malmö SEK 2.6 billion (around €225 million) to build energy-efficient homes. The project will add more than 1,500 apartments in the city while advancing European Union climate goals and helping Sweden achieve its own energy-efficiency targets.
