In Sweden power lines are buried, even in the very north of the country. I guess it's a cost thing.

- the_third_wave 3y agoThat very much depends on which part of Sweden you're talking about. Around most cities they are buried but in the countryside 'luftledning' - literally 'air cable', denoting cabled hung on impregnated wooden poles - is still more the norm than the exception. Where I live (about 60 km north of Göteborg) Vattenfall has been talking about burying those cables for decades but they're still there and regularly are taken down by trees, errant drivers and similar mishaps.
