The Federation of Norwegian Industries, led by Harald Solberg, is advocating for expedited power and grid development in Norway to meet rising energy demands and support climate objectives. Solberg highlights concerns over delays in connecting new consumption to the grid and the slow progress of key projects like the Sørlige Nordsjø II offshore wind initiative, warning that these issues could jeopardize industrial competitiveness. The Federation aims to ensure a reliable energy supply for the transition to renewable sources amidst rising costs and public opposition.
