Every year the amusement park is lit up during Halloween and during Christmas.
Millions of lights are wrapped around the trees and at the top of the Liseberg Tower, the iconic Christmas tree usually sits enthroned.
But even though we are in the middle of an electricity crisis – with skyrocketing prices – electricity is not something Liseberg themselves are worried about.
- We can thank our lucky star that we fixed our electricity prices around six months ago, says Mårten Westlund.
The properties are the biggest electrical culprit
Neither does it seem that consumption is a problem when it comes to lighting in the park.
Almost all the lights have been replaced with LED lights and the big electricity guzzler is therefore the properties, which account for 60 percent of the park's total electricity consumption.
In total, the park consumes between 60,000 – 70,000 kilowatt hours of electricity on a typical day during Halloween and Christmas.
So no lights will go out at Liseberg this coming season?
-
Well, a lot of lights will be turned off when we don't have an open park.
But we will continue to have the light that is visible to the outside, that pleases the citizens of Gothenburg, because it is not the big energy thief.
"Turn off, close, reduce"
Even though Liseberg has bound its electricity costs, they still say they want to try to reduce electricity so as not to burden the system.
Since 2015, the theme park has had the goal of reducing its electricity consumption by 30 percent until 2025, so far they have reduced by 20 percent.
The plan to start an internal action program where you will get better at closing doors, turning off lights that are not in use, and reducing electricity as much as you can without diminishing the experience.
A target for how much electricity Liseberg will reduce this winter has not been set.
