- Speaking to thelocal.se, Swedish energy expert Lars J. Nilsson stated that the electricity bill subsidy plans proposed by both PM Magdalena Andersson's centre-left Social Democrats and Ulf Kristersson's centre-right Moderates are unlikely to come to fruition, with the article stating Nilsson believes "the “high-cost protection” schemes pledged by both the Moderates and the Social Democrats are so expensive, and so potentially counterproductive when it comes to energy saving that they will be quietly dropped or downsized regardless of who wins the election."
