The increase in wind power production is putting the power
system to the test. In the future, the grid will need solutions to ensure
stability and more transmission line connections.
The need for reserves to ensure the continuous power balance of the electricity system will increase considerably in the coming years with the reform of the electricity system. At the same time, the costs of procuring reserves will increase at Fingrid. Fingrid procures reserves in as market-based a way as possible from several different sources in Finland and its adjacent neighbours, which contributes to ensuring the adequacy and cost level of reserves.
The Nordic Balancing Model is an enormous, multi-year development program that is being conducted on a national and pan-Nordic level. The project will have a major impact on Fingrid, as well as all electricity market parties.
Reserve markets are undergoing a transformation thanks to Nordic collaboration on balance management.
