Interview with Manuel Swärd, Director of Business Development, Opcon
By Ola Kinnander for eCurrents, June 2008
Founded in 1913, Opcon AB has deep roots in Sweden's industry. Today, the company - which splits
its headquarters between Stockholm and the southwestern city of Åmål -- is focusing heavily on
making products that ultimately are good for the environment. Much of what it does revolves around
turning companies' different streams of waste heat into electricity or other usable applications - which
helps clients' bottomline as well as the fight against climate change.
