This development forebodes a significant transition in the Finnish energy system, requiring new flexibility mechanisms to cope with this large share of generation from variable renewable energy sources. Energy storage is one solution that can provide this flexibility and is therefore expected to grow.
Wind power generation is estimated to grow substantially in the future in Finland. Energy storage may provide the flexibility needed in the energy transition. Reserve markets are currently driving the demand for energy storage systems. Legislative changes have improved prospects for some energy storages.
The electricity supply in Finland is quite diverse. As presented in Fig. 1, the Finnish electricity supply in 2022 consisted of nuclear power (29.7 %, 24.2 TWh), different types of thermal power plants (24 %, 19.6 TWh), imports (15.3 %, 12.5 TWh), hydropower (16.3 %, 13.3 TWh), wind power (14.2 %, 11.6 TWh), and solar power (0.5 %, 0.4 TWh).
Nevertheless, there has still been significant growth in Finland for both industrial and household PV installations. In 2022, the installed capacity of mostly small-scale grid-connected PV installations increased to 395 MW from 288 MW in the previous year, yielding an annual growth rate of 37 % .
Examples of larger GWh-scale borehole thermal energy storages built in Finland include one built at a logistics center in Sipoo and an underground parking lot in Turku . Normally, the depth of the boreholes for ground-source heating and in borehole thermal energy storages is a few hundred meters at most.
The range of wind power and electricity storage capacity estimated to be found in the Finnish electricity system by 2035 across the four different scenarios are listed in Table 2. The scenario with the highest amount of wind power had a combined onshore and offshore wind power capacity of 44 GW and a production of 141 TWh.
