Rånön is an island in the northwest of the Swedish sector of the Bay of Bothnia, in the Kalix archipelago.

[1] The island has been considered as a site for wind power generation, as have Vargön and Baggen in Piteå and Stor-Brändön in Luleå.

However a 2009 report concluded that construction could not be justified given the relatively small potential capacity, the cost and environmental damage.

In the early 1800s much of the original forest was cleared to meet the demands for fuel of the iron works in Töre and Strömsund.

[1] The tenant farmers sold their farms to the island's owner, SCA, and in the late 1960s the last residents moved to the mainland.
