  • Wind power is being built at a record pace, municipalities also benefit by investing in training in the field

    In the first half of 2022, 154 new power plants have already been built, the construction of wind power is going faster than before! Even more power plants are expected to be completed in the second half of the year. The wind power industry permanently employs e.g. experts in service and maintenance, important areas in the training include e.g. occupational safety, mechanical maintenance, hydraulics and electrical basics.

  • Stricter sound control values have been set for wind power than for other societal functions

    Suomen Tuulivoimayhdistys published a bulletin on where wind turbines can be built according to Finnish legislation. Due to official guidelines, wind turbines cannot be built at a distance of less than 300 meters from highways, and construction is only allowed at a distance from settlements. Wind turbines also do not affect the selling prices of apartments, as the distance between the properties and the wind turbines is large. Read more about the announcement here!

  • This year, the limit values for 1,000 wind farms and 5,000 megawatts will be reached in Finland

    Global Wind Day was celebrated on Wednesday 15 June. Wind power is growing here and around the world - but even more growth is needed. In 2025, wind power will cover more than a quarter of the electricity consumed in Finland. The message of Global Wind Day must still be stated that climate goals and energy self-sufficiency require a higher growth rate. Wind power covered less than one percent of the electricity consumed in Finland for less than ten years...

  • Economic research and FCG: Wind farms do not affect residential property prices

    The first study conducted in Finland shows that wind turbines have had no effect on residential real estate prices. Commissioned by the Finnish Tuulivoimayhdis and conducted by the Finnish Consulting Group (FCG) and Taloustuikma, municipalities were selected from different parts of Finland where wind power has been built between 2012 and 2021.

  • Dear landowner 

    Tuulolmio is planning a Leppäkangas wind farm in the municipality of Pihtiputa, which we have discussed with landowners and the project has been largely welcomed. We will hold a discussion event for the residents on June 15, 2022 at 5 pm in the council hall of Pihtipudaa City Hall, where we will review the background and goals of the Wind Triangle, project plans and schedule. Welcome aboard!  

  • How are wind farms monitored?

    Wind farms are constantly monitored and collect real-time information on environmental weather phenomena and general operations. The behavior of wind turbines is monitored by monitoring vibration and production variability and analyzing data. Wind turbines are monitored by the power plant manufacturer during maintenance contracts. Read more interesting facts about wind power here on the pages of Tuulivoima magazine!

  • Climate emissions in Northern Ostrobothnia have decreased by almost 8% per year

    In the measurement by the Finnish Environment Institute, municipal emissions decreased, especially in terms of electricity consumption and heating. The climate emissions of the municipalities of Northern Ostrobothnia have decreased in 2020 compared to the previous year by 7.6%, the corresponding figure for the whole country is 8.7%. The decrease in the use of electricity has been affected by the decrease in the use of fossil fuels and the warm year. Read more about the article on the Finnish Broadcasting Corporation (YLE) here!

  • The zoning initiatives in Siiamonselä and Matalaisenvaara have been approved

    At its meeting on April 8, 2022, the Pelkosenniemi Municipal Government approved the zoning initiatives of Siiamonselä and Matalaisenvaara. We are now starting to draw up a partial master plan for the projects and to determine the environmental impact, on the basis of which the delimitation of the project area and the number of wind turbines will be specified. We will work closely with landowners and other stakeholders throughout zoning. We will also continue to enter into land lease agreements. We encourage landowners to contact project development managers Tuomas Rautajoki (Matalaisenvaara) and Antti Marttila (Siiamonselkä) if you miss…

  • Finland's wind power capacity has more than doubled in 10 years

    Pension companies, municipalities and the Cooperative have rushed the wind power boom into major owners. Many of these operators do not make a direct profit but supply electricity to their owners at cost price. This way, the owners get the cheapest possible electricity and are not dependent on price fluctuations on the power exchange.
