During Climate Week in New York, The Swedish Energy Agency, together with urbs, brought a delegation of Swedish companies within sustainable buildings to New York City. New York has set ambitious and transformative decarbonisation goals in its building stock, and Swedish solutions could be an important piece of the puzzle.

The companies met with property owners, state government agencies, building developers, construction companies and other multipliers, learning about the market and showcasing their solutions. The visit was part of the Swedish Energy Agencies’ program in the U.S. market. – This is part of our concept to support private and public stakeholders in New York State and New York City to achieve their targets for the decarbonisation and electrification of the real estate sector, and in turn accelerate the entry of Swedish companies into the New York market, Verena Adamheit from The Swedish Energy Agency.

The Swedish Energy Agency is Sweden’s largest public funder and facilitator of Swedish sustaintech companies. By supporting businesses with funding and knowledge throughout their entire growth journey, from research to commercialisation and internationalisation, the mission is to promote and spread Swedish energy innovations. All a part of the efforts to meet Sweden’s energy and climate goals and to help combat global climate change.
