 V a t t e n f a l l - Sweden´s other face
The Swedish State, in the guise of the state-owned Vattenfall concern, plans to destroy the listed Wend village of Horno (Wend: Rogow) in the Lausitz region of eastern Germany and to compulsorily resettle its inhabitants, for the strip-mining of brown coal.
The president of Vattenfall AB can no longer maintain, as he did at a press conference in Berlin in June 2001, that Horno is "a German problem, far away from us up in the north"; in the meantime, Horno is indisputably a significant Swedish problem.
Vattenfall is free to take the strategic decision not to destroy Horno, Vattenfall president Lars G. Josefsson has the power, as chairman of LAUBAG's supervisory board, to implement the decision, and there is no political or legal authority in Germany, which would have substantial grounds for criticising the decision.

 VATTENFALL'S ELECTRICITY PRODUCTION SYSTEM -A QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE STUDY OF EMISSIONS OF GREENHOUSE GASES ...
Vattenfall produces approximately 50% of the electricity in Sweden, mainly by hydropower and nuclear power.
However, a life-cycle study on electricity produced by coal condensing is also being performed and that study indicates that the greenhouse gas emissions for the coal-condensing alternative throughout the life cycle are somewhere in between the emissions from the oil-condensing power plants and emissions from the gas turbines.
Vattenfall's LCA also shows that the type of input energy has a strong influence on the GHG characteristics, and consequently need being scrutinized very carefully prior to inclusion in this kind of analysis.
