Wind power is the key to increasing Finland's energy self-sufficiency
The goal of Finland's energy economy is to increase energy self-sufficiency, and the EU is also investing in renewable energy production and energy networks. Domestic wind power construction meets both goals, and therefore wind power construction is growing strongly this year as well. According to the Finnish Wind Power Association, 42 % of the planned wind power capacity is located in Northern Ostrobothnia, more than 10 % in Ostrobothnia, more than 8 % in Lapland, 5 % in Southern Ostrobothnia, 5 % in Kainuu and 4 % in Central Finland. Most projects are planned in the Pyhäjärvi, Ii, Siikalatva, Oulu and Siikajoki areas.
