That’s right, but it’s the small streams that make a mighty river, and so on. For the Nordic countries, there might be a momentary recession, but buses and heavy traffic will compensate nicely. Electric cars are also coming to the Nordic countries (431,229 last year), probably 440,000 – 460,000 units this year. These will need approximately 4,000 new chargers / 600–800 charging stations.
Plenty of growth!
