Their day started off by the inauguration of a CHP plant in Oskarshamn. They were welcomed by Oskarshamn Energi AB CEO, Jöns Wahlström, where His Majesty gave a speech. According to Kungahuset "Sustainability is discussed nowadays all over the world. I think this is good, it has been an important issue for me for a long time. It is also particularly relevant for the big climate summit in Paris later this year. Many of us hope for decisive progress there. One of the key challenges of building a sustainable society comes to energy. [...] It must be accessible to all. And it must be produced in a sustainable way. Therefore we are particularly pleased with the (biomass fired) generation plant that we have before us today. "
