This report summarizes the most important results from Market Design's research project “Permitting Processes for New Power Generation in the Nordic Countries”, which was carried out over 2007-2008. The purpose of the project was to analyze the Swedish permitting processes for new power generation plants and compare these to the corresponding processes in other countries. Particular attention was paid to the licensing of wind power and nuclear power plants, as well as to a comparison with the rest of the Nordic countries.
