  • UDDEVALLA LYSEKIL VÄSTERGÖTLAND Uddevalla SKAFTÖ It’S No Coincidence That Lysekil Is Most Often Known As the Town by the Sea
    WEST SWEDEN SWEDEN NORWAY Oslo 3 Stockholm DAYS DALSLAND Copenhagen Family BOHUSLÄN island-hopping from Lysekil to UDDEVALLA LYSEKIL VÄSTERGÖTLAND Uddevalla SKAFTÖ It’s no coincidence that Lysekil is most often known as the town by the sea. GOTHENBURG Whether you are in Lysekil itself, or take the boat over the Gullmar Fjord to Skaftö, Fiskebäckskil and Grundsund, a distinctly maritime feel pervades the N air. In Lysekil and its surroundings you can enjoy salty swims, go crab fishing and explore narrow alleyways and winding streets a stone’s throw from the W E water. Take a boat trip on to Uddevalla and you’ll find more fun experiences and activities suitable for the whole family. S DAY 1 Monday: Havets Hus IT ONLY TAKES A COUPLE OF HOURS to get to Lysekil from Gothenburg on the 841, Västtrafik’s direct bus route. When you’re there you can choose whether to stay in Lysekil itself, or take the 15 minute boat ride over Gullmarsfjorden and stay in Fiskebäckskil, or somewhere else on the island of Skaftö. The ferry runs every day, all year round, from Lysekil’s South Harbour. There is a variety of accommodation in Lysekil, including Strandflickornas hotel, offering a charming 19th century setting with hotel and youth hostel standard accommodation. If you book its family package, Salt & Wild, family en- try to Havets Hus aquarium and Nordens Ark Zoo is included. Gullmarsstrand and Slipens Hotell in Fiskebäckskil offer comfortable accommodation close to the sea. Lysekil is often called ‘the town by the sea’. At the tip of the archipelago is the Stångehuvud nature reserve and the Pinneviksbadet bathing area, with smooth granite rocks.

  • Falköpingsbolag Får Uthållighetspris
    Sida 1 (2) Solna 2011-10-13 Falköpingsbolag får uthållighetspris Friggeråkers Verkstäder i Falköping, som tillverkar sand- och saltspridare, tilldelas Soliditet Diamond Award eftersom bolaget haft högsta kreditbetyg AAA (Trippel-A) i 20 år. Hela åtta västgötabolag tilldelas priset, vilket är mer än dubbelt så många som i något annat län. Förutom de egentillverkade sand- och saltspridarna, som säljs under varumärket Falköping, är Friggeråkers återförsäljare av sopmaskiner från två olika leverantörer. Bolagen är vant vid olika typer av utmärkelser. I februari tog Friggeråkers VD Christer Friggeråker emot pris på vinterväghållningsmässan NordicWay 2011 i Östersund. De bolag i Västra Götaland som tilldelas Soliditet Diamond Award 2011 är: Tingstad Papper, Grimbo Elektriska och Prioritet Inkasso i Göteborg, Elkontakt i Lysekil, Friggeråkers verkstäder i Falköping, Åke Fernmo AB i Mariestad, Götes Fastighetsservice i Stenungsund och Hjo Byggnadsmaterial och glas i Hjo. ”Det är väldigt roligt att med Diamond Award få uppmärksamma dessa fina västsvenska företag. Även i fjol var det många bolag från Västra Götaland som utmärkte sig i Diamond Awards. För att komma med i ”diamantklubben” räcker det inte med att växa snabbt eller redovisa hög lönsamhet under enstaka år. De här företagen har uppvisat topprestationer under två decennier och är därför näringslivets maratonlöpare”, säger Soliditets VD Patrik Attemark. Soliditet är Nordens ledande kredit- och affärsinformationsföretag och kreditrankningen, där AAA är högsta betyg, ligger varje år till grund för över 2 miljoner kreditbeslut. Soliditet Diamond Award inrättades 2009. Bara 3 procent av Sveriges aktiva företag har högsta kreditbetyg AAA. Sannolikheten att få och sedan behålla kreditbetyget AAA under 20 år är endast 1,35 procent.

  • Marine Spatial Planning from a Municipal Perspective
    Marine Spatial Planning From a municipal perspective Authors Roger Johansson Frida Ramberg Supervisors Marie Stenseke Andreas Skriver Hansen Master’s thesis in Geography with major in human geography Spring semester 2018 Department of Economy and Society Unit for Human Geography School of Business, Economics and Law at University of Gothenburg Student essay: 45 hec Course: GEO245 Level: Master Semester/Year: Spring 2018 Supervisor: Marie Stenseke, Andreas Skriver Hansen Examinator: Mattias Sandberg Key words: Marine Spatial Planning, municipalities, knowledge, sustainable development Abstract Marine Spatial Planning (MSP) aims to, through physical planning of the marine areas, contribute to a sustainable development where various interests can get along. This master thesis concerns Marine Spatial Planning from a municipal perspective in Sweden. The aim of the thesis is to investigate how MSP is performed on a municipal level. In order to investigate this the thesis has been structured into three themes; The work with marine spatial planning, Marine spatial planning and synergies between marine and terrestrial areas and lastly, Environment and growth in marine spatial planning. It is important to remember that the core theme throughout the thesis; The work with marine spatial planning is interlinked with the other themes and that all of them permeate each other in the municipalities work with MSP. The mixed methods applied to answer the aim in the thesis are semi-structured informant interviews with planners and project leaders of a selection of municipalities and a survey sent to all Swedish coastal municipalities. The results show that cooperation and collaborations are an important part in the work with MSP for several municipalities.

  • Local Acceptance and Communication As Crucial Elements for Realizing CCS in the Nordic Region
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Energy Procedia 86 ( 2016 ) 315 – 323 The 8th Trondheim Conference on CO2 Capture, Transport and Storage Local acceptance and communication as crucial elements for realizing CCS in the Nordic region a* b Jacob Kielland Haug , Peter Stigson aSINTEF Energy Research, P.O. Box 4761 Sluppen, NO-7465 Trondheim, Norway bIVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, Valhallavägen 81, SE-114 27 Stockholm, Sweden Abstract The purpose of this paper was to assess the Nordic situation with regard to carbon capture and storage (CCS) deployment at the local level. This was done by identifying important factors found in the literature on community acceptance and communication and relating this to possible CCS deployment in the Skagerrak region. The analysis was complemented with findings from interviews made with municipalities in the three countries (Denmark, Sweden and Norway). The results show that the possibilities to store CO2 offshore may be a clear advantage for the Nordic region and that Porsgrunn municipality in Norway display very positive attitudes towards existing and potential CCS activities, which stands in contrast to the many public acceptance challenges experienced in Europe. Moreover, the municipalities display very different awareness about CCS, which is seen in relation to CCS experiences and national policies. © 20162015 The Authors.

  • CCS-Cluster in the Skagerrak-Region – a Politically Feasible Solution? Jacob Kielland Haug Katarina Buhr Peter Stigson
    CCS-cluster in the Skagerrak-region – a politically feasible solution? Jacob Kielland Haug Katarina Buhr Peter Stigson NORDICCS Technical Report D.2.9.1401 October 2015 Summary In this study, we have analysed the political feasibility of a joint carbon capture, transport and storage solution in the Skagerrak region. This has been done by conducting interviews with Swedish, Danish and Norwegian authorities at different governance levels, industry in the respective countries as well as complementary document and literature analyses. The results from this study illustrate a number of barriers for a potential CCS-cluster, in that there are currently no specific policies for cooperation between the three countries and thus no concrete policies for a realization of a joint activity in the Skagerrak region. Moreover, the highly different national CCS policies in the three countries may create substantial challenges. The study also identifies some features of the national policies that nevertheless may facilitate for a realization of a Skagerrak CCS cluster, which could form a starting point for political discussions between the three countries policymakers. Keywords CCS, policy, acceptance, Skagerrak Authors Jacob Kielland Haug, SINTEF Energy Research, Norway, [email protected], Katarina Buhr, IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, Sweden, [email protected], Peter Stigson, IVL Swedish Environmental Research Institute, Sweden, [email protected] Date October 2015 About NORDICCS Nordic CCS Competence Centre, NORDICCS, is a networking platform for increased CCS deployment in the Nordic countries. NORDICCS has 10 research partners and six industry partners, is led by SINTEF Energy Research, and is supported by Nordic Innovation through the Top-level Research Initiative.
