Sweden Cancels Baltic Sea Wind Farm Plans
Sweden has canceled plans for 13 offshore wind farms in the Baltic Sea due to national security concerns, particularly regarding defense capabilities against missile threats from Russia. The Swedish armed forces warned that the wind farms could interfere with sensors and radars, potentially reducing the country's reaction time to missile attacks. This decision comes amidst heightened tensions following Russia's actions in Ukraine and Sweden's recent accession to NATO. While these projects were rejected, the government approved the Poseidon wind farm on the west coast, underlining the importance of expanding renewable energy amidst security concerns. The halt raises questions about Sweden's plans to double its electricity production and maintain its commitment to green energy, given the anticipated rise in demand. Critics highlight that Sweden's plan to expand nuclear power may not keep pace with rising energy needs.
