6 FAQs about [Finland energy storage management]

Is energy storage a viable option in Finland?

This study reviews the status and prospects for energy storage activities in Finland. The adequacy of the reserve market products and balancing capacity in the Finnish energy system are also studied and discussed. The review shows that in recent years, there has been a notable increase in the deployment of energy storage solutions.

Which energy storage technologies are being commissioned in Finland?

Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.

Is the energy system still working in Finland?

However, the energy system is still producing electricity to the national grid and DH to the Lempäälä area, while the BESSs participate in Fingrid's market for balancing the grid . Like the energy storage market, legislation related to energy storage is still developing in Finland.

What drives the Finnish storage market?

Revenues in the Finnish storage market have largely been driven by ancillary services, primarily mFRR, aFRR, FCR-N, FCR-D, and FFR, but opportunities in energy trading are also increasing with the renewables buildout.

What factors influence the development of energy storage activities in Finland?

Several parameters are influencing the development of energy storage activities in Finland, including increased VRES production capacities, prospects to import/export electricity, investment aid, legislation, the electricity and reserve markets and geographic circumstances.

Can PHS be used as energy storage in Finland?

Plans exist for PHS systems, but studies have indicated that there may be few suitable locations for PHS plants in Finland [94, 95]. While large electrolyzer capacities are planned to produce renewable hydrogen, only pilot-scale plans currently exist for their use as energy storage for the energy system (power-to-hydrogen-to-power).
