• From Challenge to Transition – Together

    By bringing together actors facing similar challenges, we create joint solutions.

  • Everything we do is collaboration and knowledge exchange

    We ensure that new knowledge is put to use and influences action plans to pave the way for an inclusive transition.

  • Our vision is a fossil-free northern Sweden that strengthens both the climate and the region

    We collaborate with the public sector, industry, and research and development.

Together with our members, we run projects that strengthen the region’s transition.

We are a member-owned organization that connects municipalities, businesses, and research. Through joint efforts, we bring ideas to life, strengthen the bioeconomy, and accelerate the transition in northern Sweden.

Join the transition  

We run projects to create solutions that benefit both the region and the climate. Right now, we are working on developing biogas production in the north, supporting companies in finding new business opportunities within the bioeconomy, and promoting the use of sustainable fuels.

Whether it’s about business challenges, local raw material supply for industry, or better conditions for hydrogen and electric power, the goal is always the same: to go from challenge to transition – together.
