Question

How is electricity produced in Finland currently and in the future? More specifically:

  • What is the share of different production modes and importation?
  • What fuels are used in CHP and separate production of electricity?
  • What is the capacity range of CHP and separate electricity production?

Answer

Rationale

  • CHP: Combined heat and power production


Finnish government: Long-term Climate and Energy Strategy 2008[2]:

  • Development of electricity production in Finland
    • Baseline scenario: compliance with measures and development in place before the 2008 government climate and energy strategy.
    • Target scenario: measure outlined in the 2008 climate and energy strategy are in place.
