A subtle change in how climate risk is communicated—mentioning a person’s local area—can significantly increase attention to disaster preparedness messages, according to a new study by researchers at the Stockholm School of Economics and Harvard University, published in Nature Human Behaviour. The findings offer a practical, low-cost strategy for governments, insurers and local authorities seeking to boost climate resilience in vulnerable communities.

The Financial Times has ranked the Stockholm School of Economics among Europe’s top 20 business schools in 2025. SSE is the highest-ranked institution in the Scandinavian region and the only Nordic school to make the top 20.

As CIVICA Ambassadors, Estrid Kaarme and Simon Warne aim to create engagement among students for current European civic issues: "AI and its impact on democracies is a particularly important matter right now."

The Forum for Research on Eastern Europe: Climate and Environment (FREECE) and the Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics (SITE) invite paper submissions from economics, political science, and related fields for a one-day workshop at the Stockholm School of Economics on Friday, November 28, 2025.

A new study from the Stockholm School of Economics finds that the competitiveness of green steel production in Romania partly hinges on hydrogen sourcing – requiring a 15 percent price premium if hydrogen is purchased externally as supposed to produced on-site. Without this premium, decarbonizing the country’s only primary steel producer could result in billions of losses.

Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant dream in the energy sector—it’s already reshaping how power is generated, distributed, and consumed. This new policy brief, published by the Stockholm Institute of Transition Economics (SITE) offers insights from SITE Energy Talk 2025 on how AI is helping countries like Ukraine, Sweden, and those in the Baltics build more flexible, efficient, and resilient energy systems.

Sweden has shifted its climate policy from carbon taxes to big investments in nuclear energy, but this new approach may create financial and environmental risks. A new SITE policy brief analysis explores why carbon pricing and green industrial policy should work together—not separately.

The Student Association at the Stockholm School of Economics has been named the Regional Winner for Europe in the PRME Global Students Sustainability Awards. The recognition highlights the group’s dedication to integrating sustainability into business education and creating real-world impact.

Sweden is moving toward a fossil-free future, but its electricity market faces significant uncertainties regarding demand, costs, and policy directions. A new report by SITE research fellow Chloé Le Coq and her co-authors highlights that Sweden’s energy transition cannot happen in isolation. Strong European cooperation and robust regulatory frameworks are crucial for ensuring stability and efficiency.
