Ödesdygn draws near for power tax on nuclear power – Swedish Dagbladet

– We are concerned that the parties do not take responsibility for getting a settlement, says union IF Metall Chairman Anders Ferbe said.

He wants to see a broad , long-term agreement on energy that keeps the political shifts and ensures industry’s access to energy.

But the emergency is output tax on nuclear power, according to him. And the answer can not see more than one way, if there is to be a “brutal rapid decommissioning of nuclear power.”

– The output tax must be removed, the second is to greatly reduce the property tax on hydro power.

An alliance source claims the ball after intensive talks in the week, now lies with the Prime Minister Stefan Löfven and Energy Minister Ibrahim Baylan. They must respond to the bid that the bourgeois parties added. But it is not a completely unanimous bourgeois line.

– I deny not, says Elin Boberg, Head of Liberals on the information that L would have differences of opinion in relation to the rest of the alliance.

Centre Party representative in the talks, Richard Nordin, do not want to say much:

– the atmosphere is good and I hope we will find a solution.

it brought some bad blood at Easter when Baylan and the Green Party’s energy policy spokesperson Lise Nordin declared that they wanted to make a deal with the goal of a completely renewable electricity to 2036. Swedish Enterprise saw it as an attempt to introduce a new end date for nuclear power and considering a ban on new nuclear power. Some of the bourgeois parties can not set up on it unless there are guarantees that nuclear power will be left without a deadline.

An M-source says that the case certainly can be focused on renewable generation, but that nuclear power must be maintained. M aims to S should swallow some bitter proposals to obtain a broad and politically stable settlement where M is included, rather than to meet a narrower arrangement with one or more smaller parties.
