In an EnergyPLAN simulation of the Finnish energy system for 2050, approximately 45% of electricity produced from solar PV was used directly over the course of the year, which shows the relevance of storage. In terms of public policy, several mechanisms are available to promote various forms of RE.
However, solar PV is currently in Finland the second least cost option for new electric power generation after wind power. The Energy Authority () collects the official data of grid-connected PV electricity in Finland from the grid companies on yearly basis. The results of the survey are published on late June.
The volume of PV installations in Finland is still low, but it is growing rapidly, employing more people. There are several companies working with power electronics systems for solar PV. It is probably the most significant individual PV-related employer in companies. The tasks include R&D and manufacturing.
The total number of PV power plants in Finland is estimated to be around 20 000 – 25 000. *There is no data collected about the sales of off-grid systems. However, based on discussions with PV system provider the market in Finland is estimated to be around 300 kW on yearly basis.
The total production capacity in 2017 was estimated to be 20 MW and the produced capacity around 5.5 MW in 2017. The total PV cell and module manufacture together with the production capacity information is given in Table 18 below. The listing below covers the main companies manufacturing PV systems or related components in Finland.
The largest individual solar PV plant in Finland is a 6 MW ground-mounted system, which is constructed on an industrial site in Nurmo. The majority of systems are built for self-consumption of PV electricity, since there is no economic potential for utility-scale PV systems for grid electricity generation yet.
