Finland has made impressive strides in solar technology. For example, Solnet Group has invested heavily in research and development, leading to energy storage possibilities and grid optimization. These advancements are critical for optimizing grid operation and stabilizing energy consumption.
In addition, Finland’s transmission system operator Fingrid has received wind and solar power connection enquiries amounting to a total capacity of over 100 megawatts. Fingrid assesses that by 2030, the overall solar power plant capacity in Finland may climb to seven gigawatts.
Solar power can enhance grid stability in Finland by providing a decentralized energy source and this can be especially beneficial during extreme weather conditions or unforeseen disruptions. Developers vs. landowners
In the summer, the long days and nearly round-the-clock sunlight compensate for the dark winters. This article's Finnish version was first published in February 2019 and has been updated in June 2023. "Finland’s advantage is its low atmospheric temperature, which improves the efficiency of solar photovoltaic cells.
One of the intriguing aspects of Finland's solar boom is the scramble for land. Developers are racing to secure suitable sites for solar installations, often negotiating with landowners to reserve space. This competitive landscape reflects growing interest in solar projects across the country.
At an annual level, however, Finland gets roughly as much sunshine as countries such as Germany or Denmark. However, Germany produces 110 times more solar electricity than Finland, Denmark five times more, and Sweden four times more.
