Action Programme for Nordic Cooperation on Energy Policy
The Action Programme is the key element of the vision for the Nordic Energy Co-operation by the Nordic energy ministers.
The Action Programme for Nordic Energy Co-operation on Energy Policy is targeted at creating a visible and sustainable contribution to solving the most important and politically most relevant energy policy challenges faced by the Nordic region. The action programme is based on the Action Plan for Nordic Energy Cooperation 2006-2009.
The action plan focused on energy markets, sustainable energy systems and Nordic impact on the international agenda. The new programme prioritises the electricity market, renewable energy, energy efficiency, energy in sparsely populated areas and international co-operation. It also focuses on research and technological development, and puts a special emphasis on climate change issues and sustainable transportation.
