The energy supply system
Norway has the highest share of electricity produced from renewable sources in Europe, and the lowest emissions from the power sector.
Norway has a cold climate, and a large part of its energy consumption is used for heating.
The electricity grid enables electricity transport from producers to consumers, and connects Norway’s power system to other countries’ systems.
The power market is an important tool for ensuring cost-efficient use of electricity resources.
Security of supply means the ability of the power system to provide end users with an uninterrupted supply of electricity and a specified quality of supply.
