The relatively cool climate and long, bright summer days support the operation of solar panels. Modern panels produce electricity in diffuse light and even on partly cloudy days. In spring and winter, light reflected from snow can even increase production if the panels are installed at the right angle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Solar power generation is most efficient when the panels are positioned correctly, for example on a south-facing, sloping roof or in an open, unobstructed environment. The roofs of large properties and production facilities, such as warehouses, commercial and industrial buildings and agricultural facilities, offer particular potential, where electricity consumption is typically high precisely when <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/energy\/solar-energy\/\"><span dir=\"auto\">solar energy <\/span><\/a><span dir=\"auto\">is available.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span dir=\"auto\">Solar power in Finland \u2013 a snapshot<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">The role of solar power in Finnish electricity production has grown in recent years.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">Total capacity: \u202f<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span dir=\"auto\">At the end of 2024, the total capacity of solar power in Finland was approximately 1,200 MW, or 1.2 GW, which corresponded to 1.4% of Finland&#8217;s total electricity production.<\/span><br \/>\n<span dir=\"auto\">The share of industrial-class power plants, i.e. power plants with a capacity of more than 1 MW, was approximately 120 MW.<\/span><br \/>\n<span dir=\"auto\">Small-scale production constituted approximately 1,080 MW, i.e. by far the largest part of the capacity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span dir=\"auto\">For comparison,\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sweco.fi\/en\/energy\/wind-power\/wind-power-in-finland\/\"><span dir=\"auto\">the total capacity of wind power<\/span><\/a><span dir=\"auto\">\u00a0in Finland was over 8,300 megawatts at the end of 2024, or approximately seven times that of solar power.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span dir=\"auto\">New installations 2024: In 2024, approximately 200 megawatts of solar power were installed.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span dir=\"auto\">Growth forecasts and development: According to Fingrid, the planned projects could increase capacity to up to 16 gigawatts by 2035.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Source: Finnish Renewables, 2024 \/ Fingrid, 2024<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block cb block--white\" >\n\t<div class=\"block__inner cb__inner cb__inner--one\">\n\t<div class=\"col--12 col--center col--wrapper\">\n\t\t<div class=\"col col--6 editor-content\">\n\t\t\t<h2><span dir=\"auto\">Benefits of solar power<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">1. Low emissions, life cycle sustainability and environmental benefits<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Solar power is virtually emission-free during production: electricity is generated without direct carbon dioxide emissions, and the use of solar panels does not cause noise, waste or water impacts. However, the production of solar panels consumes energy and raw materials such as silicon, aluminum and glass. Still, the life cycle emissions of solar power are significantly lower than those of fossil fuel-based energy production.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Technological developments are continuously reducing these impacts. New manufacturing methods, such as the use of thinner material layers and the utilization of recycled materials, reduce the carbon footprint of the panels. At the same time, the service life of the panels is extended and recyclability is improved.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">2. Decentralization and democratization of energy production<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Solar power enables energy production for households, municipalities and companies. This means that more and more operators can produce electricity either for their own use or distribute surplus to the grid. The scalability of solar power makes it suitable for various locations around Finland, from single-family homes and farms to commercial, logistics and industrial properties.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Decentralized and local electricity production can also improve security of supply. Especially in disruptions or crises, own production can secure part of the electricity supply, making energy infrastructure more sustainable.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">3. Economic stability and investment predictability<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Because solar energy does not require fuel, it is not dependent on world energy prices. Investment in solar power is by its nature upfront: most of the costs are incurred during the acquisition and installation, but operating and maintenance costs typically remain low.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span dir=\"auto\">Solar power challenges<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">1. Seasonality of production\u202f<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Finland&#8217;s northern location makes solar power generation seasonal: the majority of production occurs in the spring and summer months. To manage this temporal imbalance, advanced energy storage solutions, such as batteries or thermal storage, as well as flexible consumption and control systems are needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">2. Network capacity and technical compatibility<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">While distributed solar power offers significant benefits, such as the potential for more self-sufficient electricity generation and lower transmission losses, its rapid expansion can place a strain on the local electricity grid. Especially on sunny summer days, production can exceed consumption, which can lead to voltage problems without smart load management and sufficient grid investments.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><span dir=\"auto\">3. Land use, landscape and biodiversity<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"auto\">Solar panels can be placed on buildings without significant land use impacts, but large solar parks require large areas of land, which can cause conflicts with agriculture, recreation or nature conservation. Landscape impacts can be reduced by designing the park in a way that respects the environment. Since the solar power plant is only about five meters high, it is possible to blend into the environment with careful landscape design.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<section class=\"block ocb ocb--right\" >\n    <div class=\"block__inner ocb__inner editor-content\">\n\n    \t    \t\t<div class=\"ocb__title ocb__title--mobile\">\n    \t\t\t<h2>Solar power, solar electricity or solar energy?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n    \t\t<\/div>\n    \t\n\t\t<div class=\"col--4 ocb__content\">\n\t\t\t\t    \t\t<div class=\"ocb__title ocb__title--desktop\">\n\t    \t\t\t<h2>Solar power, solar electricity or solar energy?<\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\t    \t\t<\/div>\n\t    \t\t\t\t<p><span dir=\"auto\">When talking about renewable energy, the terms solar power, solar electricity, and solar energy are often used interchangeably.
