Biography of Mats Larsson
Mats Larsson is the founder of the Global Energy Transformation Institute. He has over 30 years’ experience as a business and management consultant, developing business strategies for companies in many different industries. He has worked with the large-scale transformation to electromobility and sustainability since 2004, leading a sequence of projects. This work has resulted in five internationally published books, starting with "Global Energy Transformation", published in 2009, then "The Business of Global Energy Transformation" (2012), "Circular Business Models" (2018), "Redrawing the Map of the Future" (2019), and "The Blind Guardians of Ignorance" (2020).
In "Global Energy Transformation", 2009, Mats launched the idea that the large-scale change to electromobility and a sustainable society will require large-scale transformation programmes. He has since then elaborated on this idea and developed strategies for various aspects of the transformations, such as the expansion of vehicle fleets and charging infrastructure, power generation and distribution, the development of training programmes for the groups of professionals that need to become involved in the change, and development of the companies and business models that will be needed.
Mats has a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) by Lund University.
