Fingrid’s combined accident frequency fell to a record low in 2025, and we reached our target easily.
The Aurora Line is an electricity transmission link from Messaure in Swedish
Lapland to Muhos in North Ostrobothnia, Finland. It will increase north-south electricity transmission and improve security of supply. The Aurora Line will also
support Europe’s climate objectives by enabling the production of more renewable electricity and boosting the efficiency of the European electricity market.
The reserve markets offer an opportunity to sell flexible electricity consumption and production, as well as energy storage, on the marketplace. By participating in the balancing of the power system, you help maintain system stability and receive
compensation for the capacity offered and the regulation carried out.
A record amount of proactive occupational safety work was performed at Fingrid
worksites in 2024.
Fingrid is the transmission system operator for Finnish people. Its mission is to safeguard a reliable energy supply for society and promote a clean, market-based power system.
Since 2010, Finland’s main grid has expanded more than ever before. The pace will accelerate further in the coming years. The Aurora Line transmission link is this decade’s most significant investment in the main grid.
We updated our electricity production and consumption forecasts at the start of the year. Finland has highly promising opportunities for success in the energy transition. The number of enquiries for main grid connections from electricity producers and electricity-intensive industries has continued to climb. The main grid needs significant construction and development to enable investment.
More occupational accidents leading to absences happened on Fingrid’s worksites in 2023 than in the previous year, and the frequency of occupational accidents increased slightly. The number of serious occupational accidents decreased compared to the previous year.
The energy transition is leading to a huge increase in the need for power system reserves.
The transition to renewable energy sources is reflected in cleaner electricity production. Thanks to increasing production, Finland has the means to achieve annual self-sufficiency in electricity production this year and become a net exporter of electricity in the future.
