View DetailsSolar energy can be used in different forms. It can be used as a form of electricity or concentrated and stored in batteries or thermal sources. Finland is one of the avid users of solar-powered energy for different purposes. In this write-up, we share the biggest solar projects and farms in Finland.
Many Finns are already familiar with solar power: solar panels can be found on the roofs of many homes, summer cottages and workplaces. As technology develops, industrial-scale solar power production is also becoming more common in Finland. Finland is undergoing a major energy transition.
As technology develops, industrial-scale solar power production is also becoming more common in Finland. Finland is undergoing a major energy transition. Moving away from imported fossil fuels and towards local, clean energy production will create the basis for new industrial investment.
In addition to wind power, we also need plenty of solar energy, for which Finland has excellent prospects. Solar power is particularly well suited as a counterpart to wind power. These two emission-free energy sources complement each other: solar energy is available in summer and during the day, while the highest winds occur on average in winter.
