The Aurora Line will carry cheap green electricity from Sweden to Finland
The Aurora Line, due for completion at the end of next year, will increase the electricity transmission capacity between Finland and Sweden by nearly 1,000 MW. It will significantly reinforce Finland’s power system and stabilise the electricity price.18.10.2024
A busy year for balancing management
The balancing management reform will boost the efficiency of Fingrid’s work in balancing electricity production and consumption. At the same time, several new tools and methods will be introduced, so customers will have a wider range of opportunities to participate in the electricity market.24.06.2024
The power system is expanding, driven by wind and solar power
The need for electricity will rise in Finland in the coming years. At the same time, fossil fuels are being phased out entirely. Therefore, wind and solar power must produce even more clean electricity. How can we ensure there is enough electricity on calm, cloudy days?17.06.2024
Green corridors for flying squirrels
The flying squirrel is an endangered species. Within the European Union, it can only be found in Finland and Estonia. Fingrid safeguards the breeding and resting sites of the species by establishing green corridors along the transmission line routes required for the green transition.03.07.2024
