Finland’s electricity consumption is expected to double over the next ten years. Fingrid’s main grid development plan shows how electricity transmission capacity will be increased to meet the needs of growing production and consumption.
Electricity production and consumption in Finland could double from today’s levels within a decade. The closer production and consumption facilities are located to each other, the less network reinforcement is needed to accommodate growth. This is why, for example, it would be beneficial to locate many data centres close to wind power production.
Finland survived last winter’s energy challenges thanks to cooperation on many fronts. Operators in the sector are grateful to everyone who saved electricity during critical hours.
As the electricity system evolves and becomes the core of the entire energy system, the market must develop in line with new needs.
The purpose of this blog is to provide a brief overview of the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence, and for this purpose we tested how successful artificial intelligence is in predicting electricity consumption in Finland, writes Jarkko Tulensalo, Specialist at Strategic Grid Planning in Fingrid Oyj.
