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

Statistics Finland[1]:

  • Electricity supply and production statistics for Finland from 1960 onwards.
  • Statistics for 2005-2010:
2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010
Production mode TWh Share TWh Share TWh Share TWh Share TWh Share TWh Share
Hydro power 13.4 15.9 % 11.3 12.6 % 14.0 15.5 % 16.9 19.4 % 12.6 15.5 % 12.7 14.5 %
Wind power 0.2 0.2 % 0.2 0.2 % 0.2 0.2 % 0.3 0.3 % 0.3 0.3 % 0.3 0.3 %
Nuclear power 22.4 26.4 % 22.0 24.4 % 22.5 24.9 % 22.1 25.3 % 22.6 27.8 % 21.9 25.0 %
Conventional condensing power 5.3 6.3 % 17.6 19.5 % 14.4 15.9 % 8.8 10.1 % 9.0 11.0 % 14.2 16.2 %
CHP, industry 10.6 12.5 % 11.9 13.2 % 11.5 12.7 % 11.1 12.7 % 8.9 10.9 % 10.3 11.7 %
CHP, district 15.8 18.6 % 15.7 17.4 % 15.3 16.9 % 15.4 17.7 % 15.9 19.6 % 17.8 20.4 %
Importation 17.0 20.1 % 11.4 12.7 % 12.6 13.9 % 12.7 14.6 % 12.1 14.9 % 10.5 12.0 %
Total 84.7 100 % 90.1 100 % 90.4 100 % 87.2 100 % 81.3 100 % 87.7 100 %

Notes

  • Conventional condensing power: electric energy produced by cooling down steam with water without using the heat energy of the steam.
  • CHP: Combined heat and power production


  • Fuels used in in electricity production in 2010:
Production mode: Conventional condensing power Combined heat and power
GWh Share GWh Share
Oil 108 1 % 338 1 %
Coal 9760 69 % 4288 15 %
Natural gas 191 1 % 10786 38 %
Other fossil fuels 61 0 % 129 0 %
Peat 2392 17 % 3460 12 %
Black liquor and other concentrated liquors 319 2 % 5012 18 %
Other wood fuels 1081 8 % 3547 13 %
Other renewables 146 1 % 271 1 %
Other 120 1 % 267 1 %
Total 14178 100 % 28098 100 %

Notes

  • Condensate parts produced in connection with combined heat and power production were calculated with condensing power.
  • In addition to hard coal, coal includes blast furnace gas and coke oven gas and coke.
  • Mixed fuels (such as recycled fuel) are divided into renewable and fossil fuels in ratio to the fossil and biodegradable coal contained in them.
  • Other fossil fuels include plastics fuels and other waste fuels and the fossil part of mixed fuels.
  • Other renewable fuels comprise the bio part of mixed fuels and biogas.
  • Other energy sources include hydrogen, electricity, and reaction and secondary heat of industry.
  • Combined heat and power production includes pure combined production.
  • Reduction heat produced in connection with condensate production and combined heat and power production were calculated in separate production of heat.
