About Us
For more than four decades we have been creating solutions that have helped in decreasing the use of conventional energy sources. With years of research and development we have created numerous sophisticated technologies that have made it possible for us to open the world''s first fully automated solar panel factory in Salo Finland.
Solar energy and solar electricity in Finland | LUT University
The Finnish Energy Authority states that in 2022, solar power production amounted to nearly 635 megawatts – more than a 240 megawatt increase compared to the previous year. Finland still produces fairly little solar electricity compared to leading European countries. The Netherlands, in contrast, produce over seven times more per capita.
About solar power in Finland
In Finland, a number of hybrid projects are in the pipeline, combining wind, solar and also energy storage. These solutions will balance our energy system. On a global scale, solar power is one of the fastest growing forms of energy generation – its size and importance in the world''s energy mix is huge, larger than wind power.

Solar energy in Finland
Finland is a member in the IEA''s Photovoltaic Power Systems Programme but not in the Scandinavian Photovoltaic Industry Association, SPIA. In 2015, the Kaleva Media printing plant in Oulu became the most powerful photovoltaic solar plant in Finland, with 1,604 solar photovoltaic (PV) units on its roof.

6 FAQs about [Solar power international Finland]
How much solar power does Finland produce in 2022?
The Finnish Energy Authority states that in 2022, solar power production amounted to nearly 635 megawatts – more than a 240 megawatt increase compared to the previous year. Finland still produces fairly little solar electricity compared to leading European countries. The Netherlands, in contrast, produce over seven times more per capita.
Who is solar Finland?
The story of Solar Finland started in 1978 when the founders begun importing solar energy components to Finland. At first while the market was quite small, products were sold only to be used in summer cottages, boats, and mobile homes.
What is solar energy used for in Finland?
Solar energy in Finland is used primarily for water heating and by the use of photovoltaics to generate electricity. As a northern country, summer days are long and winter days are short. Above the Arctic Circle, the sun does not rise some days in winter, and does not set some days in the summer.
Can solar power improve the profitability of buildings in Finland?
LUT University has investigated how the profitability of solar electricity could be improved in different types of buildings in Finland. Researchers have debunked myths related to the orientation and dimensioning of solar photovoltaic systems and sales of surplus electricity.
Does Finland have a solar heating system?
Thus, Finland has installed 10% of its objective in 11 years time (1995–2010). The solar heating has not been competitive due to cheap alternatives (electricity, fuel oil and district heating) and the lack of support systems. Companies and public organizations may receive 40% investment subsidies, but private houses do not receive subsidies yet.
Why is Finland a good place to install solar panels?
"Finland’s advantage is its low atmospheric temperature, which improves the efficiency of solar photovoltaic cells. The colder it gets, the better the solar panels work. Solar panels can also withstand snow loads if they are installed following directions.
