Climate-neutral Finland
Finland is committed to aim for a carbon-neutral energy system by 2023. The transition is in progress with increasing shares of various forms of low-carbon production and significant reductions in the share of energy production from coal and natural gas, for example. Finland has traditionally been strong in the use of renewable energy thanks to wood-based fuels availability. However, a significant part of the energy is still produced from fossil fuels in Finland. The energy system has been in constant evolution throughout history. Recently, climate change mitigation has made carbon neutrality the single biggest goal in energy system development, which has a major impact on current decision-making. In addition to carbon neutrality, the change must consider two other particularly important and ongoing societal objectives such as security of supply and service of the energy system, and cost-effectiveness. The future energy system will be affected by many expectations and parallel developments. These include the arrival of new energy sources on the market and their integration into the system, the progress of electrification, the development of energy technologies and changes in cost-efficiency, the growing importance of energy storage, the carbon capture development, and plans for the hydrogen economy. There are numerous possible directions for development, and they are not mutually exclusive. However, it creates science-based, urgent information needs and challenges for energy system decision-making. As decisions have to be taken that simultaneously create the conditions for the achievement of several objectives, partly cross-impacting each other. This report offers a clear and comprehensive overview of energy system status in Finland including the main trends. The report provides basic general information of the different types of energy production, energy storage, energy efficiency and savings as well as the entire energy system, including system integration. In addition, the aim is to present basic information ...
