Why are women still underrepresented in Sweden’s energy sector, despite the country leading the EU in gender equality? This episode hosted by Philipp Montenegro explores Women in Power, a research project led by Daniela Lazoroska with Jenny Palm and Anna-Riikka Kojonsaari from the International Institute for Industrial Environmental Economics at Lund University’s. The project, running from 2023-2027, investigates how women’s professional networks and collective efforts are driving change, offering mentorship, and challenging industry norms. Backed by the Swedish Energy Agency, the research provides qualitative empirical insights into how social capital translates into career advancement and broader inclusion.
