A simulation method based on probability calculations was introduced last winter. The method had previously been utilised for mid-term power adequacy assessments.
The urban Western Boulevard City planned by the City of Helsinki will require Helen Electricity Network’s high-voltage overhead lines and substation in the area to be moved. This will only be possible if Fingrid, the transmission system operator, brings forward its plans to build a 400-kilovolt live power feed to the city centre. Collaboration has resulted in a solution that enables third-party schedules to be coordinated optimally.
Fingrid has built a new digital service for service providers. My Fingrid for Partners will be deployed in phases, and it will replace FGPartners by the autumn.
This decade, Fingrid will invest a record EUR 2 billion in electricity networks and substations on Finland’s main grid.
Fingrid’s Guarantees of Origin service received excellent reviews in the annual customer survey, which was conducted at the end of last year. The service authenticates the origin of renewable energy.
In 2020, the transmission reliability rate on the main grid reached a record-setting.
The principle behind Fingrid’s activities is to be a responsible, cost-efficient transmission system operator that works towards long-term objectives. The continuous improvement in productivity is reflected in the moderate pricing of services.
Electricity generation and consumption are two sides of the same coin. People need electricity, particularly on cold winter days – but those are the days when electricity is most difficult to guarantee and supply. Coal is coming to the end of the road, so we need to look for alternatives. The answer increasingly lies in the expanding Nordic and European electricity markets.
Fingrid is planning a new transmission line between Huittinen and Forssa.
The earth wires located above power lines transfer fault current safely into the ground via earthing connections. Earth wires may be necessary in areas with less conductive soil.
