Trade between Sweden and Ireland is growing. As part of the Irish Trade Mission to Sweden, led by Enterprise Ireland, Sigholm’s Arne Bergvik was entrusted with moderating the lunchtime seminar "From Coast to Grid - Irish Solutions for Swedish Renewables".

Sigholm produced a strategic positioning paper for a data centre operator and identified opportunities for action within an energy system characterised by capacity shortages.

The project involved challenges that required careful planning and communication to solve logistical and technical problems. Through smooth dialogue and coordination, the challenge of transport routes and the cistern leak was overcome.

Sigholm modelled operating strategies and revenue potential for a pumped storage hydropower plant based on a long-term electricity price forecast at hourly resolution. Through qualitative reasoning on market dynamics, combined with quantitative modelling built on transparent assumptions, the context and prerequisites for understanding the business case were clearly established.

Sigholm is running a project to map the urban planning process for Strängnäs municipality. It is a complex process that includes many different municipal departments, competences, functions and roles.

Energisektorn genomgår en betydande förändring där elnätet har en central roll som möjliggörare för samhällets elektrifiering och omställning till fossilfria energikällor. Denna utveckling innebär både möjligheter och utmaningar för elnätsföretagen.

Fastigheter står för hälften av samhällets energikonsumtion. Det blir därför allt viktigare för fastighetsägare att navigera sig i de plötsliga förändringar och den snabba tekniska utveckling som pågår i energisystemet.

Mälarenergi needed to evaluate a solution to reduce odor issues associated with waste incineration. Sigholm was brought in to lead the project and conducted an extensive feasibility study.

Through flexibility and responsiveness from all parties, the goals and timeline were successfully achieved.

Familjebostäder is a public housing company owned by the City of Stockholm. The owner directive sets out goals for the expansion of charging infrastructure, but it was a challenge to be able to implement this broad expansion in a long-term sustainable way.

Following a merger of two companies, restructuring and development of several tools and services were required. For example, the entire financial system needed to be changed in order to track costs effectively.

In response to the global energy crisis, Lysekil Municipality wanted to proactively prepare for future challenges. By enlisting the help of Sigholm for a time-limited effort, the municipality raised awareness of the scope of the energy crisis, its effects and its impact on Lysekil as a whole.

Mälarenergi faced a significant challenge as they needed to carry out renovation work on a cooling water culvert dating back to the 1970s, located beneath the harbour area.

Sigholm har fått i uppdrag av en större stad i Sverige att utvärdera värdet av ett kommunalt ägande av fjärrvärmen i staden. Genom att analysera konkurrenskraften på både kort och lång sikt, och väga in värdet

On behalf of the industry organization Avfall Sverige, Sigholm developed a guide for operators with environmental permits in the energy industry. The purpose of the guide is to make it easier for businesses to make their own strategic choices about whether or not planned changes can be accommodated within existing permits and to guide if or when environmentally hazardous activities with older environmental permits need to be reviewed.

Like many regions in Sweden, Region Västmanland faced a desperate situation in March with an urgent need for protective equipment as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. Sigholm had the competence, efficiency and willingness to contribute in a societal crisis, which is why the region turned to Sigholm.
