The Swedish Energy Agency’s regulations on the 
obligation to provide consumers with 
environmental information on fuel 
(STEMFS 2020:xx) 
adopted on xx xx 2020. 
By virtue of § 13 of the Fuel Ordinance (2011:346), the Swedish Energy 
Agency issues the following regulations1.  
Preliminary provisions and definitions 
§ 1 These regulations contain provisions on the content and formulation of 
the environmental information that shall be provided to consumers in 
accordance with § 11 a, § 11 b, and § 11 c of the Fuel Ordinance (2011:346).  
§ 2 Terms and expressions in these regulations are used in the same way as 
they are used in the Fuel Act (2011:319) and the Fuel Ordinance (2011:346). 
The following terms are used in the way specified here: 
 renewable energy: energy based on bio-components; fossil energy: energy 
based on fossil components; fuel type:  a fuel that meets a certain 
classification in accordance with §§ 3–15 of the Fuel Act (2011:319) or 
which meets certain national or international standards for fuels, any other 
fuels that do not meet classifications or standards, and electricity used as 
fuel.  
product:  marketed product of the respective fuel type.  
§ 3 Environmental information must not be presented on a website or device 
for refilling fuel until the Swedish Energy Agency has announced that 
verification has been performed on the reporting and greenhouse gas 
calculation that has been carried out in accordance with § 20 of the Fuel Act 
(2011:319) and Chapter 3, § 1 e of the Act (2010:598) on sustainability 
criteria for biofuels and bioliquids. 
                                                           
1 See Directive (EU) 2015/1535 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 
9 September 2015 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of 
technical regulations and of rules on Information Society services  
  
Environmental information on devices for refilling fuel 
§ 4 All devices intended for the refilling of fuel by consumers shall bear the 
declaration provided by the fuel suppliers in accordance with § 11 c of the 
Fuel Ordinance (2011:346). The declaration shall be affixed in such a 
manner that it is clearly visible to the consumer. There shall be a declaration 
for each marketed product. The declaration shall contain a reference to the 
fuel supplier’s website where information in accordance with § 5 shall be 
presented.  
The declaration shall contain the following information on each product: 
a. The name under which the product is marketed and the fuel type of 
the product. If the product does not meet a classification in 
accordance with §§ 3–15 of the Fuel Act (2011:319), a national or 
international standard for fuels, or is electricity, then the product 
shall be designated as other fuel . 
b. The product’s climate impact in the form of greenhouse gas 
emissions for its entire life cycle. The climate impact shall be 
expressed as g CO 2eq/MJ (LCA) and visualised as a bar graph in 
accordance with Annex 1 and Annex 2. For electricity products, the 
climate impact shall be expressed as CO 2eq/kWh (LCA).  
c. The share of the product that consists of renewable energy and 
fossil energy, respectively. The shares shall be stated as percentages 
in relation to the energy content.  
For electricity products, the shares of renewable or fossil energy 
shall not be stated.  
d. The raw materials used to produce the product and the share of the 
product constituted by each raw material. The shares shall be stated 
as percentages in relation to the energy content of the product. Raw 
materials that make up less than ten per cent of the overall share of 
the product may be categorised as other. The raw material that 
constitutes the largest share of fossil or renewable energy, 
respectively, shall always be stated, even if it is less than ten per 
cent. 
For electricity products, the raw material shall be designated as 
electricity.  
Annex 1 and Annex 2 show how the declaration shall be formulated.  
Environmental information on websites 
§ 5 The environmental information shall be presented on the website that the 
fuel supplier indicated in the declaration that is on the device for refilling 
fuel. The environmental information on the website shall contain the 
following information about each product: 
a. The name under which the product is marketed and the fuel type of 
the product. If the product does not meet a classification in 
accordance with §§ 3–15 of the Fuel Act (2011:319), a national or  
 international standard for fuels, or is electricity, then the product 
shall be designated as other fuel.  
b. The product’s climate impact in the form of greenhouse gas 
emissions for its entire life cycle. The climate impact shall be 
expressed as g CO 2eq/MJ (LCA) and visualised as a bar graph in 
accordance with Annex 1 and Annex 2. For electricity products, the 
climate impact shall be expressed as CO 2eq/kWh (LCA). 
c. The share of the product that consists of renewable energy and 
fossil energy, respectively. The shares shall be stated as percentages 
in relation to the energy content. 
For electricity products, shares of renewable and fossil energy, 
respectively, can be stated in cases where the data is based on the 
Act (2010:601) on guarantees of origin for electricity. 
d. The raw materials used to produce the product and the share of the 
product constituted by each raw material. The shares shall be stated 
as percentages in relation to the energy content of the product.  
For electricity products, the raw material may be stated as 
electricity .  
e. For each raw material used, the respective country/countries of 
origin shall be specified. The origin of the raw materials shall also 
be stated as the overall share of the product. The shares shall be 
stated as percentages in relation to the energy content of the 
product. If the country of origin is outside the European Union or 
the EEA, but there is no information on which country is the 
country of origin, such shall be indicated by country of origin 
unknown. 
For electricity products, the country of origin need not be specified.  
 
Annual updating 
§ 6 The information shall be updated by no later than 1 October annually, or 
a later date determined by the Swedish Energy Agency.  
Entry-into-force provisions
