Lögn: Stängda kärnkraftverk hade ingen effekt på Sveriges elpriser. ⚡

De fyra reaktorerna som stängdes sammanlagt producerade runt 20'000'000 MWh per år

  • Oskarshamn 2: 4-5 TWh (topp 5 TWh). Stängdes 14 oktober 2015
  • Oskarshamn 1: 3 TWh (topp 3,5 TWh). Stängdes 17 juni 2017.
  • Ringhals 2: 5-7 TWh (topp 6,8 TWh). Stängdes 30 december 2019.
  • Ringhals 1: 5-7 TWh (topp 6,3 TWh). Stängdes 31 december 2020

De fyra reaktorerna producerade till en mycket låg kostnad

Reaktorerna producerade under 30 öre per kWh allt-som-allt. Statens hittepå skatt ska inte räknas med. Kruxet är att reaktorerna kostar betydligt mer att bygga än de kostar i drift, underhåll och produktion under hela sin livslängd. Svenska reaktorer var betalda och avskrivna för länge sen.


Nya kärnkraftsreaktorer kommer inte producera till en låg kostnad

Statliga utredningar och rapporter från Energiforsk bedömer att investeringskostnad och kalkylränta (kapitalkostnad) upp till 80 % av totalkostnaden för nya reaktorer. Vid hög kalkylränta eller byggförseningar kommer det bli mer än 80%. Tills de är avskrivna kommer nya reaktorer kommer producera betydligt dyrare el än de gamla.


Svenska spot elpriser sätts efter priset på "sista kWh"

Ta ett mycket förenklat exempel: man behöver 1'000'000 kWh el.

  • 700'000 kWh säljs för 30 öre/kWh
  • 250'000 kWh säljs för 38 öre/kWh
  • 50'000 kWh säljs för 115 öre/kWh

Spotpriset blir då 115 öre/kWh


När du ser allt detta, hur fan är det ens möjligt att stängda kärnkraftverk inte påverkade elpriset?

Du hade med största sannolikhet haft flera gånger lägre elpris under "elpristopparna".

Skoda Peaq and BMW IX3 (EU market)

I am curious about the comparison between Skoda Peaq and BMW IX3. Skoda is slightly larger and comes very well equipped at a lower price. There are some nice details in the Skoda, e.g. magnetic wireless chargers.

I have not tested the Peaq yet, so I don't have an opinion. I understand that comparison between BMW IX3 vs Skoda Peaq might be seen as "provocative" because some consider Skoda to be a "budget" brand.

In what ways is IX3 better than the Peaq? It is hard to argue against the Peaq when it is:

  • (a) larger
  • (b) very well equipped
  • (c) has nice design (based on renders anyway)
  • (d) seemingly has high quality interior (based on renders)
  • (e) comes from a brand that has good reliability history

BMW is "premium" and Skoda is "budget", but what exactly makes the BMW more "premium"? It is easier to make the distinction in other industries, e.g. I can very easily point at what makes iPhone 17 Pro or Samsung S26 Ultra better than mid-range phones.

Volvo EX60 vs Skoda Peaq

I have seen Swedish magazines compare Volvo EX60 with Skoda Peaq. Skoda is slightly larger and comes very well equipped at a lower price. There are some nice details in the Skoda, e.g. magnetic wireless chargers.

Volvo EX60 vs BMW iX3 vs Zeekr 7X

These three are seemingly the best cars in this class.

I watched and read a bunch of reviews and the reviews either avoid a direct comparison or make a very careful one without really stating an opinion.

Which car of these three do *you* prefer and why? 🙏

Class-leading cars from Stellantis

Let's talk about class-leading cars in terms of reviews or sales numbers. The other day I tried to see how many class-leading cars Stellantis has. 13-14 automotive brands so there have to be many class-leading car models. Dozens, at least. Yet, I could not find a single one.

I am not here to pick on Stellantis. I am genuinely puzzled. A company of Stellantis size undoubtedly has more than enough resources and expertise. So why do Stellantis brands struggle to produce class-leading cars? Why is this happening?

Car and Driver has nice, clear and reliable "best in class" lists. We don't have to use "Car and Driver" lists, it's just that they are better than most. But it is the same story elsewhere. "Best compact cars" is a relatively long list and it features no Stellantis products. Not one. "Best Subcompact SUVs" has no Stellantis products either. Same story with "Best Electric 3-Row SUVs". Not a single Stellantis product is featured on the relatively long list. "Best Electric SUVs Under $60,000" as well. Not a single Stellantis product anywhere in sight. There are dozens of "best in class" lists and it is exceptionally rare to spot a Stellantis product. (edit: Stellantis has a class-leading truck, Ram 1500. This is one of the rare exceptions)

Same goes for brand and car model reliability lists. It is very rare to see Stellantis brands or products. Some carmakers even give 10 year warranty on their products (e.g. Mazda). In today's situation, 10 year warranty is probably unthinkable for any of Stellantis brands.

Why does an automotive conglomerate with so much resources and expertise struggle to produce class-leading vehicles?

Open letter to Stellantis

I recently scanned the stock market for undervalued stocks and came across Stellantis. Its current valuation on the stock market is ridiculously low. However, after researching this for a while, I am very puzzled by Stellantis' stituation

I'd like to put my observations out in the open and hear your thoughts.

If this post and the following discussion prove to be interesting, I could do another one – more thorough and more insightful.

Carlos Tavares era is blamed for many self-inflicted problems and rightfully so. Stuff like:

  • (a) excessive layoffs and understaffed factories
  • (b) ignorance towards production defects (e.g. assembly lines were no longer paused to fix ongoing assembly issues)
  • (c) idiotic cost-saving (e.g. plastic liftgate on Grand Wagoneer. Madness.)
  • (d) dozens upon dozens of other issues

However, the current direction of the company also seems problematic.

I wanted to research and check how many class-leading car models Stellantis currently has on sale. Class-leading in terms of positive reviews or sales volume, like: Honda Civic, Mazda CX-30, Kia EV9, Tesla Model Y, BMW iX3, Mercedes E class, Renault 5, Lucid Gravity, VW Golf GTI and so on. Class leading car models do not guarantee financial or sales success, but it is a strong starting point.

Stellantis has so many car models across its 13 brands, so there should be plenty of class-leading car models. Which ones? Yea, about that. I could not find a single one.

In this context, I argue that an avalanche of new models is the wrong approach. Yet, that's exactly what Stellantis is doing:

  • it promised 50 updated models and 60 new models
  • it makes countless catchy slogans and plans. The worst offenders that I have seen are the idiotic "green" slogans for every brand
  • it poured tens of billions into EV development with no significant results to show for it
  • ...

There is a classic business joke that that is not far off – "We lose money on every sale, but we make it up in volume."

Fiat, Stellantis' best selling brand, sells fewer cars annually than Tesla Model Y. It's even worse when you rank Stellantis brands by sales volume and go down to the middle of the list. Dodge and Chrysler are in the middle of the list and they sell fewer cars across the entire brand than Volvo XC40/EX40. The XC40 is not even Volvo's best selling model. And Volvo is not a large automotive manufacturer.

It is sad to see the direction that Stellantis is currently taking. There is no doubt that Stellantis has large quantities of very competent people. It's a virtual certainty, given the number of employees. Stellantis certainly can make a class-leading car. And another one. And another one. I wish this is where the effort went. To make ONE undeniably class-leading car model. Not 50+60 new "averagely competitive" ones. Which seems to be the path Stellantis is currently walking.

I hope Stellantis shifts its focus toward creating a few truly class-leading models - and compensates the employees who build them accordingly. 🙏

Är elbilar mycket billigare i drift?

Jag räknar på "total cost of ownership" för en elbil versus en bensinbil. Inköpspris på 200k för bensin och 300k för elbil. Båda begagnade såklart. En elbil blir billigare att äga inom 5 år. Elbilen blir billigare även om inköpspriset för bensin är 120k. Räknar på 30k km per år.

Det känns att jag missar något. Kan elbil verkligen bara billigare i totalkostnad än en bensinbil som är 2,5x billigare (120k vs 300k)?

  1. Ponera att man laddar elbilen hemma. Finns det några andra kostnader, utöver kWh, som man inte tänker på? Högre effektskatter eller något annat?

  2. Finns det några andra kostnader? Elbilar förbrukar däck snabbare än bensinbilar (högre vikt resulterar i mer slitage). Är denna kostnad märkbar? Finns det några andra kostnader som påverkar elbilar mer än bensinbilar?
