What Borlange Energi does
Borlänge Energi is a Swedish municipal utility (kommunalt bolag) wholly owned by Borlänge Kommuns Fövaltnings AB, the holding company of Borlänge municipality. Operating since 1904, it delivers an integrated bundle of essential urban services — electricity network distribution to approximately 30,000 customers, electricity retail under the Borlängepriset and spot-price product families, district heating (Fjärrvärme) with smart-controlled substations, fiber-based city network (Stadsnät) reaching over 97% of municipal residents at minimum 1 Gbps, water supply and sewage treatment, waste collection and recycling at the Fågelmyra center, and city infrastructure services (streets, parks, bridges, street lighting, snow clearance) commissioned by the municipality.
The company's revenue model is predominantly subscription- and tariff-based: regulated network fees for electricity distribution, recurring electricity supply contracts across four product structures (fixed, Borlängepriset Aktiv, Medelspotpris, Spotpris), recurring district heating subscriptions, fiber subscriptions, and recurring waste collection, with usage-based pricing for water (25.38 SEK/m³ variable plus 3,340 SEK/year fixed fee per meter) and one-time connection fees for new water/sewage/drainage hookups (up to 160,000 SEK for a residential villa). Distribution is entirely direct — through owned infrastructure, the "Mina sidor" self-service portal, native iOS/Android apps, and physical customer service at its Nygårdsvägen 9 headquarters. ISO 14001 (since January 2001) and ISO 9001 (since August 2002) certifications cover all operations.
Customer segments span private households (villa owners and apartment residents), businesses and housing associations (Företag och BRF), contractors working on local utility infrastructure (Entreprenör), and an educational audience of children and youth via programs such as Skrutt och Wattis. The company is currently executing on a fiber expansion to serve one of Europe's largest data centers and a 2030 climate-neutral Borlänge commitment spanning EV charging, solar electricity (Solel), and source-separated waste programs. It has 251–500 employees and is governed by a politically constituted board led by Ulrik Bergman (Chairman, M), with CEO Mats-Erik Olofsson.
