The city of Skelleftea is growing rapidly as the result of large industrial investments in the green transition business. As a result of these investments, thousands of new inhabitants are expected to move the city (which has a current population of 70,000 inhabitants). In recent years, the municipality of Skellefteå has indeed become a Swedish and European symbol of growth, future-proof energy solutions and ground-breaking technology. The richness of natural resources from forests, rivers and minerals, as well as well-developed renewable energy production, gives this city in the periphery of Europe unique conditions for the new green industries from a global perspective. The Green-Inc project will assess one new development zone in which innovative solutions to manage runoff water will be implemented.
GREEN-INC
GREEN-INC is the abbreviation of GRowing Effective & Equitable Nature-based Solutions through INClusive Climate Actions: a European research project with 6 universities and 5 partner cities.
