The Centre Party proposes in its shadow budget that 900 million kronor be allocated next year to the expansion of power cables to offshore wind power.

We must actually stop messing around with this, lay the power cable to Kriegers Flak now, says Martin Ådahl, the party's economic policy spokesperson.

In the coming years, the amount will be 1.6-1.9 billion kronor per year, according to the party. This is to finance connections such as the one to the wind farm Kriegers Flak, which Vattenfall has paused due to the costs of the power cables.

The Centre Party points out that households in southern Sweden will be affected by this.

The result of not having a climate policy is very expensive, says Rickard Nordin.

In the long run, the party wants to abolish the fees for connecting new large-scale electricity production to the grid. This can be paid for through bottleneck fees, according to the party.

The Centre Party also wants the property tax on wind power to be permanently returned directly to the municipalities, which according to the Centre Party will cost the state 350 million kronor in 2025.
