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.
The average time required to obtain an expropriation permit is currently between one-and-a-half and two years, when it used to be only six months.
In Finland, a huge number of green transition projects have been announced,
which also require the development of the main grid. Six Fingrid customers talk about their latest projects in Finland.
The emission intensity of Finland’s power generation has fallen below the upper limit set for green hydrogen and other renewable electric fuels in the regulation, according to Fingrid’s estimate.
Fingrid is constantly making network plans for the future in Eastern Finland, but we can only proceed when we know what kind of transmission lines and substation locations are needed to connect new electricity production and consumption.
Over the next ten years, Fingrid will invest a record EUR 3 billion in the main grid. This money will be used for the following purposes.
This decade, Fingrid will invest a record EUR 2 billion in electricity networks and substations on Finland’s main grid.
