Question

What is the amount of energy produced (including distributed production) in Helsinki? Where is it produced (-> emissions)? Which processes are used in its production?

Answer

Rationale

Energy balance

Amount produced is determined largely by the energy balance in Helsinki and Helsinki energy consumption. Energy produced and fuels used by of all Helen's power plants.[1]

These equations below aim to reflect the energy production facilities and capabilities.

Note! Maintenance cost only contains costs that do not depend on activity. Operational cost contains costs that depend on activity but NOT fuel price; those are calculated separately based on energy produced.
