"Most of Sweden's electricity supply comes from hydro and nuclear, along with a growing contribution from wind. Heating is supplied mainly through bioenergy-based district heating and heat pumps. Most of Sweden's greenhouse gas emissions come from the transport sector, which remains reliant on oil."
All wind goes to export currently, tho the green want to expand the wind farms, which would be a real threat to the internal power needs and not just exports as it is today.
38% is hydro and 30% nuclear. Back in the 80's before the mental asylums closed down and the green party hadn't been invented yet, this relation between hydro and nuclear where practically 50-50.
As for the transport sector, Sweden has been using electric trains powered by overhead lines since the early 1900's, and during the oil shortage in the 40's the whole country quickly switched from gasoline to producer gas. Most buses and big rigs are gas powered today and can easily run on biogas or producer gas if there's a shortage in natural gas.
Some things where done right at least, and much thanks to Russia some of the more destructive political forces have now been forced to reconsider the important of self sustainability over "muh environment".
