REPORT
 
OF
 
THE
 
BOARD
 
OF
 
DIRECTORS
1.1
Financial
 
result
 
and
 
financing
Fingrid’s
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements
 
have
 
been
 
drawn
 
up
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
International
 
Financial
Reporting
 
Standards
 
(IFRS).
 
Unless
 
otherwise
 
indicated,
 
the
 
figures
 
in
 
parentheses
 
refer
 
to
 
the
 
same
 
period
 
of
 
the
previous
 
year.
 
Fingrid’s
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements
 
have
 
been
 
drawn
 
up
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
same
accounting
 
principles
 
as
 
in
 
2023.
The
 
emissions
 
from
 
the
 
electricity
 
consumed
 
in
 
Finland
 
have
 
decreased
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
year,
 
and
 
the
 
price
 
of
electricity
 
has
 
fallen.
 
Following
 
the
 
growth
 
in
 
renewable
 
electricity
 
production,
 
variations
 
in
 
the
 
price
 
of
 
electricity
have
 
increased.
 
Demand
 
for
 
electricity
 
started
 
to
 
grow
 
in
 
2024.
 
The
 
transmission
 
reliability
 
of
 
the
 
main
 
grid
continued
 
to
 
be
 
high
 
despite
 
the
 
several
 
planned
 
transmission
 
outages
 
required
 
by
 
the
 
construction
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
network.
 
Annual
 
investments
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
were
 
record
 
high.
The
 
Group
 
turnover
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
1,269.3
 
(1,193.2)
 
million.
 
Income
 
from
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
275.4
 
(164.5)
million,
 
due
 
largely
 
to
 
Fingrid
 
waiving
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
for
 
three
 
months
 
in
 
2024,
 
while
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
were
waived
 
for
 
six
 
months
 
in
 
2023.
 
In
 
addition,
 
Fingrid
 
concluded
 
new
 
grid
 
connection
 
agreements
 
and
 
the
 
electricity
consumption
 
on
 
which
 
grid
 
service
 
revenue
 
is
 
based
 
grew
 
to
 
82.7
 
(80.0)
 
terawatt
 
hours
 
in
 
Finland.
 
The
 
maintenance
 
and
 
investment
 
costs
 
for
 
a
 
growing
 
power
 
system
 
rose,
 
which
 
increased
 
Fingrid’s
 
turnover.
Fingrid’s
 
balance
 
services
 
segment
 
accounted
 
for
 
52
 
(59)
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
the
 
turnover.
 
Large
 
fluctuations
 
are
 
typical
 
in
the
 
imbalance
 
power
 
amount
 
and
 
sales
 
price
 
and
 
procurement
 
costs,
 
owing
 
to
 
an
 
increase
 
in
 
weather
 
-dependent
electricity
 
production,
 
and
 
the
 
uncertainty
 
related
 
to
 
market
 
participants’
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
forecasts.
The
 
congestion
 
income
 
from
 
the
 
cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
links
 
between
 
Finland
 
and
 
Estonia
 
and
 
Finland
 
and
Sweden
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
265.3
 
(260.1)
 
million,
 
of
 
which
 
Fingrid’s
 
share
 
was
 
EUR
 
242.0
 
(220.9)
 
million.
 
Fingrid’s
income
 
on
 
the
 
financial
 
transmission
 
rights
 
(FTR)
 
issued
 
on
 
the
 
Finland–Estonia
 
border
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
62.3
 
(57.0)
million,
 
and
 
the
 
congestion
 
income
 
credited
 
to
 
the
 
holders
 
of
 
corresponding
 
transmission
 
rights
 
was
 
EUR
 
85.5
 
(96.2)
million.
 
A
 
total
 
of
 
EUR
 
301.0
 
(284.7)
 
million
 
in
 
congestion
 
income
 
was
 
recognised
 
in
 
turnover
 
to
 
cover
 
the
 
waiving
 
of
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
and
 
increased
 
operating
 
expenses,
 
and
 
EUR
 
130.1
 
(118.0)
 
million
 
in
 
other
 
operating
 
income
 
to
 
cover
FTRs
 
and
 
cross
 
-border
 
capacity
 
costs
 
and
 
EUR
 
30.4
 
(2.3)
 
million
 
in
 
investments
 
to
 
improve
 
cross
 
-border
 
transmission
capacity.
 
The
 
accrued
 
congestion
 
income
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
balance
 
sheet
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
841.8
 
(975.7)
 
million
 
at
 
the
end
 
of
 
the
 
year.
The
 
Group’s
 
costs,
 
including
 
depreciation
 
and
 
amortisation
 
without
 
the
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
value
 
of
 
commodity
derivatives,
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
1,163.8
 
(1,126.8)
 
million.
 
Imbalance
 
power
 
procurement
 
costs
 
fell
 
to
 
EUR
 
457.4
(491.1)
 
million.
 
Mainly
 
driven
 
by
 
larger
 
area
 
price
 
differences
 
for
 
electricity
 
early
 
in
 
the
 
year,
 
the
 
congestion
 
costs
resulting
 
from
 
the
 
surplus
 
in
 
the
 
national
 
electricity
 
balance
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
19.5
 
(15.5)
 
million.
 
Loss
 
power
 
costs
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
81.1
 
(75.2)
 
million,
 
due
 
to
 
an
 
increase
 
in
 
the
 
grid
 
transmission
 
needs.
 
The
 
amount
 
of
 
loss
 
power
procured
 
was
 
1.7
 
(1.7)
 
terawatt
 
hours,
 
and
 
the
 
average
 
price
 
was
 
EUR
 
47.37
 
(45.09)
 
per
 
megawatt
 
hour.
 
The
 
cost
 
of
reserves
 
to
 
safeguard
 
the
 
grid’s
 
system
 
security
 
and
 
power
 
balance
 
was
 
EUR
 
217.6
 
(185.6)
 
million.
 
The
 
growth
 
was
driven
 
by
 
the
 
increased
 
amounts
 
of
 
reserves
 
procured
 
and
 
the
 
procurement
 
price
 
emerging
 
from
 
reserve
 
scarcity
situations.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
progress
 
made
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
extensive
 
investment
 
programme,
 
depreciation
 
and
amortisation
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
128.7
 
(123.3)
 
million.
 
The
 
increase
 
in
 
grid
 
maintenance
 
costs
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
39.8
 
(22.5)
million.
 
The
 
significant
 
growth
 
in
 
costs
 
was
 
mainly
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
repair
 
of
 
the
 
EstLink

cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
cable,

in

Personnel
 
costs
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
47.6
 
(42.8)
 
million,
 
which
 
can
 
largely
 
be
 
explained
by
 
the
 
increase
 
in
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
personnel
 
required
 
for
 
the
 
expansion
 
of
 
the
 
operations
 
and
 
the
 
increasing
complexity
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system.
The
 
Group’s
 
operating
 
profit
 
excluding
 
the
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
derivatives
 
was
 
EUR
 
238.9
 
(186.1)
 
million.
 
The
Group’s
 
profit
 
before
 
taxes
 
was
 
EUR
 
186.4
 
(1.3)
 
million.
 
The
 
profit
 
was
 
improved
 
by
 
the
 
company
 
reaching
 
its
 
larger
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit.
 
The
 
market
 
value
 
of
 
electricity
 
derivatives
 
fell,
 
driven
 
by
 
a
 
drop
 
in
 
the
 
market
 
price
 
of
electricity.
 
The
 
amount
 
of
 
electricity

hedging
 
the
 
procurement
 
of

for
 
the

ten
 
years.
 
In
 
2024,
 
the
 
company’s
gross
 
investments
 
grew
 
to
 
EUR
 
520.9
 
(322.0)
 
million
 
as
 
the

increased
 
its

to
 
enable
 
the

This
 
included
 
a

A
 
total
 
of
 
EUR

was
 
used
 
for

The

The
 
allowed

in
 
line
 
with
 
the
 
regulatory
 
method
 
regulating
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
in
 
transmission
 
grid
operations
 
rose
 
in
 
2024
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
year,
 
which
 
was
 
the
 
result
 
of
 
a
 
higher
 
interest
 
rate
 
level
 
and
 
the
company’s
 
increased
 
investments.
 
The
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
that
 
determine
 
the
 
company’s
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
for
2024–2031
 
entered
 
into
 
force
 
on
 
1
 
January
 
2024.
 
The
 
methods
 
included
 
the
 
revaluation
 
of
 
grid
 
assets
 
carried
 
out
 
for
2024.
 
The
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
that
 
entered
 
into
 
force
 
in
 
2024
 
include
 
several
 
changes
 
that
 
reduce
 
the
 
company’s
profit
 
and
 
weaken
 
its
 
ability
 
to
 
invest
 
compared
 
to
 
previous
 
methods.
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
appealing
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
against
 
the
 
confirmed
 
methods.
 
Based
 
on
 
the
 
company’s
 
own
 
calculations,
 
the
 
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
amounts
 
to
a
 
surplus
 
of
 
around
 
EUR
 
5
 
million
 
for
 
2024.
 
Cumulatively,
 
no
 
deficit
 
or
 
surplus
 
has
 
been
 
created
 
in
 
the
 
allowed
regulatory
 
profit,
 
considering
 
the
 
deficits
 
carried
 
over
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
periods.
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
decides
 
on
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
the
 
congestion
 
income
 
received
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
for
 
investments,
 
to
 
cover
costs
 
and
 
for
 
use
 
as
 
turnover
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
EU
 
regulation.
 
A
 
regulatory
 
letter
 
submitted
 
to
 
Fingrid
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
Authority
 
in
 
2023
 
specified
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
congestion
 
income
 
in
 
2024.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
has
 
specified
 
the
 
use
 
of
congestion
 
income
 
for
 
2024
 
and
 
determined
 
the
 
use
 
for
 
2025
 
with
 
its
 
new
 
regulatory
 
letter
 
in
 
December
 
2024.
 
The
decision
 
concerning
 
the
 
use
 
of

income
 
is
 
issued
 
in
 
conjunction
 
with
 
the

regulatory
 
period,
 
after

Strategy
Fingrid
 
is
 
a
 
Finnish
 
transmission

whose
 
main
 
owners
 
are
 
the
 
State
 
of
Finland
 
and
 
Finnish
 
pension
 
and
 
insurance
 
companies.
The
 
company’s
 
operations
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
Finnish
 
and
 
EU
 
legislation.
 
In

with
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
Act,
 
the

between
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and

and
 
promotes
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
 
The
 
EU
 
Regulation
 
on
 
the
 
internal
 
market
 
for
 
electricity
 
obligates
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
cooperate
 
within
 
ENTSO-E,

for
 
Electricity,
 
and
 
also
 
regionally
 
with
 
Nordic
 
and

companies,
 
to
 
improve
 
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
internal

on
 
the

of
 
the
 
company’s
 
statutory
 
tasks
 
in
 
a
 
rapidly

1.2.2
Customers
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
are
 
largely
 
based
 
on
 
performing
 
statutory
 
duties.
 
This
 
task
 
is
 
performed
 
with
 
maximum
customer
 
focus,
 
but
 
on
 
impartial
 
and
 
equal
 
terms.
 
Fingrid’s
 
customers
 
include
 
distribution
 
system
 
operators
 
(DSOs),
electricity
 
producers,
 
industries
 
consuming
 
electricity,

for
 
its
 
customers.

in
 
the
 
main

that
 
meets
 
consumers’
 
needs.
 
Grid

consist
 
of

Emissions
 
from
 
the
 
production
 
of
 
electricity
 
have
 
fallen
 
significantly
 
in
 
Finland,
 
and
 
they
 
were
 
32
 
(40)
 
gCO2/kWh.
 
In
2024,
 
the
 
price
 
of
 
electricity
 
and
 
the
 
emissions
 
from
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
were
 
among
 
the
 
lowest
 
in
 
Europe.
 
Clean,
affordable
 
and
 
reliable
 
electricity
 
creates
 
the
 
conditions
 
for
 
growing
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
in
 
Finland.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
received
 
grid
 
connection
 
enquiries
 
on
 
electricity
 
generation
 
for
 
roughly
 
45
 
GW,
 
on
 
consumption
 
for
roughly
 
17
 
GW
 
and
 
on
 
grid
 
energy
 
storages
 
for
 
roughly
 
18
 
GW.
 
In
 
various
 
parts
 
of
 
Finland,
 
numerous
 
projects
 
related
to
 
clean
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
are
 
under
 
planning
 
in
 
the
 
hydrogen
 
and
 
metals
 
industries,
 
for
 
example.
 
The
 
growth
in
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
is
 
currently
 
driven
 
by
 
the
 
electrification
 
of
 
heating
 
and
 
new
 
data
 
centre
 
projects.
 
Enquiries
on
 
the
 
connection
 
of
 
new
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
sites
 
to
 
the
 
grid
 
have
 
grown
 
significantly.
Growing
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
creates
 
a

Almost
half
 
of
 
the
 
enquiries
 
received
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
on
 
connection
 
points
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
for
 
electricity
 
generation
 
are
 
related
to
 
onshore
 
wind

projects.
 
The
 
remaining

are
 
divided
 
between
 
offshore

During
 
2024,
 
1,600

The
 
significant
 
growth
 
in
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
is
 
predicted
 
to
 
occur
 
in
 
the
 
second
 
half
 
of
 
this
 
decade.
 
The
electricity
 
consumption
 
forecast
 
updated
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
for
 
the
 
2030s
 
is
 
the
 
same
 
as
 
the
 
previous
 
forecast.
 
Electricity
consumption
 
over
 
the
 
next
 
few
 
years
 
has
 
been
 
revised
 
slightly
 
down
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
forecast.
 
Compared
 
with
earlier
 
forecasts,
 
the
 
growth
 
forecast
 
of
 
wind
 
power
 
production
 
is
 
slightly
 
lower
 
for
 
the
 
next
 
few
 
years.
 
The
 
growth
forecast
 
for
 
solar
 
power
 
production
 
has
 
risen.
 
The
 
long-term
 
growth
 
trends
 
for
 
wind
 
and
 
solar
 
energy
 
remain
 
largely
unchanged,
 
supporting
 
growth
 
in
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
the
 
expansion
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system.
The
 
large
 
number
 
of
 
enquiries
 
concerning
 
the
 
connection
 
of
 
both
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
is
 
an
indication
 
of
 
Finland’s
 
good
 
ability
 
to
 
compete
 
in
 
green
 
transition
 
investments.
 
A
 
large
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
green
 
transition
projects
 
require
 
a
 
connection
 
to
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
reliable
 
and
 
affordable
 
electricity.
 
Fingrid
 
plays
 
a
 
key
 
role
 
in
enabling
 
this
 
development.
 
Customers’
 
needs
 
for
 
the
 
electricity
 
network
 
can
 
vary
 
rapidly.

to
 
ensure
 
the
 
high
 
quality
 
and
 
functionality
 
of
 
the
 
power

develop,
 
maintain
 
and
 
expand
 
the

and
 
give
 
the
 
players
 
access
 
to
 
the
 
benefits
 
offered
 
by
 
the
 
large
 
European
 
electricity
 
markets.
 
Along
 
with
 
building
 
the
electricity
 
network,
 
it
 
is
 
important
 
to
 
develop
 
solutions
 
that
 
enhance
 
the
 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
the
electricity
 
network
 
to
 
accelerate
 
the
 
green
 
transition.
 
One
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
tasks
 
is
 
to
 
develop
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
further
 
and
 
promote
 
and
 
implement
 
European
 
electricity
 
market
 
development
 
in
 
Finland.
The
 
expansion
 
and
 
integration
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
markets
 
is
 
also
 
promoted
 
through
 
grid
 
investments
 
that
 
reinforce
transmission
 
links
 
and
 
services
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
allocation
 
of
 
cross
 
-border
 
capacity.
 
Cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
links
enable
 
access
 
to
 
the
 
wider
 
European
 
electricity
 
markets.
 
The
 
objective
 
is
 
to
 
offer
 
the
 
markets
 
the
 
maximum
 
possible
transmission
 
capacity.
 
The
 
two

wholly
 
owned
 
by
 
Fingrid

Customer
 
fees
Fingrid’s
 
key
 
customer
 
fees
 
related
 
to
 
services
 
are
 
the
 
connection
 
fees,
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
and
 
balance
 
service
 
fees.
The
 
service
 
fees
 
are
 
essentially
 
affected
 
by
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
maintenance
 
cost,
 
the
 
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit,
electricity
 
network
 
investme
 
nts
 
and
 
growth
 
in
 
electricity
 
consumption.
The
 
company’s
 
pricing
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
cost
 
recovery
 
and
 
the
 
annual
 
achievement
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
allowed
 
regulatory
profit.
 
Fingrid’s
 
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
is
 
determined
 
for
 
each
 
year
 
by
 
applying
 
the
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
regulatory
method
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision.
 
The
 
allowed
 
regulatory

and
 
its
 
achievement
 
have
a
 
significant
 
impact
 
on
 
the
 
company’s
 
ability
 
to
 
invest.
 
The
 
company
 
updates
 
its
 
service
 
fees
 
to
 
reflect
 
any
 
changes
 
in
the
 
operating
 
environment.

Fluctuations
 
especially
 
in
 
the
 
procurement
 
costs
 
of
 
power
 
system
 
reserves
 
have
 
steered
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
review
 
balance
service
 
fees.
 
At
 
the
 
start
 
of
 
March,
 
balance
 
service
 
fees
 
were
 
reduced
 
from
 
EUR
 
1.50/MWh
 
to
 
EUR
 
1.33/MWh
 
due
 
to
the
 
lower
 
-than-anticipated
 
level
 
of
 
power
 
system
 
reserve
 
costs.
 
Correspondingly,
 
as
 
reserve
 
procurement
 
costs
 
rose,
Fingrid
 
announced
 
that
 
it
 
will
 
raise
 
balance
 
service
 
fees
 
to
 
EUR
 
1.73/MWh
 
as
 
of
 
1
 
January
 
2025.
 
As
 
renewable
electricity
 
production
 
grows,
 
balancing
 
the
 
reserves
 
that
 
ensure
 
the
 
power
 
system’s
 
system
 
security
 
and
 
power
balance
 
gains
 
in
 
importance
 
and
 
requires
 
more
 
resources
 
than
 
before.
 
During
 
the
 
period
 
under
 
review,
 
Fingrid
 
waived
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
for
 
January,
 
February
 
and
 
June.
 
Fingrid
 
allocated
congestion
 
income
 
from
 
cross
 
-border
 
links
 
to
 
investments
 
that
 
increase
 
cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
and
 
used
the
 
congestion
 
income
 
to
 
cover
 
increased
 
operational
 
costs
 
and
 
the
 
waiver
 
of
 
grid
 
service
 
fees.
In
 
September
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
announced
 
that
 
it
 
will
 
raise
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
by
 
an
 
average
 
of
 
8
 
per
 
cent
 
as
 
of
 
1
 
January
2025.
 
The
 
increase
 
is
 
necessitated
 
by
 
investments
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
 
the
 
growing
 
costs
 
of
 
managing
 
the
 
electricity
system.
Fingrid
 
is
 
planning
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fee
 
structure.
 
The
 
objective
 
of
 
the
 
changes
 
is
 
to
 
make
 
more
 
efficient
use
 
of
 
grid
 
capacity,
 
accelerate
 
the
 
connection
 
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
to
 
the
 
grid
 
and
 
create
 
new
methods
 
for
 
the
 
grid’s
 
growing
 
transmission
 
management
 
needs.
Fingrid
 
surveys
 
customer
 
satisfaction
 
annually.
 
In
 
the
 
autumn
 
2024
 
survey,
 
Fingrid’s
 
net
 
promoter
 
score
 
from
customers
 
was
 
+60
 
(+45).
 
According
 
to
 
the
 
survey,
 
customers
 
trust
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
works
 
for
 
the
 
good
 
of
 
the
 
whole
society
 
and
 
appreciate
 
the
 
competenc
 
e,
 
problem-solving
 
skills
 
and
 
service-mindedness
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
experts.
Based
 
on
 
the
 
annual
 
reputation
 
surveys,
 
satisfaction
 
with
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
is
 
high
 
also
 
among
 
the
 
company’s
other
 
stakeholders.

Main
 
grid
Fingrid
 
develops
 
and
 
operates
 
the
 
grid
 
to
 
meet
 
customers’
 
and
 
society’s
 
needs.
 
Investments
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
will
reinforce
 
Finland’s
 
competitiveness
 
in
 
attracting
 
industrial
 
investments
 
and
 
promote
 
the
 
achievement
 
of
 
Finland’s
carbon
 
neutrality
 
goals
 
by
 
2035.
 
Roughly
 
80
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
the
 
investment
 
projects
 
in
 
the
 
grid
 
development
 
plan
 
are
new
 
investments
 
based
 
on
 
customer
 
needs.
 
The
 
starting
 
points
 
are
 
the
 
anticipation
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
development
 
needs,
 
correctly
 
timed
 
grid
 
construction,
 
promoting
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
 
and
 
managing
 
the
 
ageing
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
while
 
maintaining
 
a
 
high
 
level
 
of
operational
 
quality.
 
Customer
 
needs
 
can
 
change
 
at
 
a
 
rapid
 
pace,
 
but
 
building
 
the
 
grid
 
takes
 
years.
 
The
 
building
 
of
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
must
factor
 
in
 
the
 
time
 
required
 
for
 
the
 
whole
 
process,
 
all
 
the
 
way
 
from
 
design
 
and
 
obtaining
 
the
 
permits
 
for
 
the
 
projects
to
 
the
 
completion
 
of
 
the
 
construction
 
work.
 
This
 
means
 
that
 
the
 
grid
 
building
 
projects
 
to
 
be
 
implemented
 
over
 
the
next
 
few
 
years
 
were
 
planned
 
years
 
ago.
 
Fingrid’s
 
regulatory
 
financial
 
supervision,
 
together
 
with
 
the
 
increase
 
in
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
the
 
power
system
 
maintenance
 
costs,
 
determines
 
the
 
profitability
 
of
 
grid
 
investments
 
and
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
ability
 
to
invest.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
increased
 
its
 
ability
 
to
 
invest
 
based
 
on
 
customer
 
needs
 
by
 
increasing
 
its
 
own
 
personnel
 
and
expanding
 
its
 
partner
 
network
 
and
 
developing
 
its
 
procurement
 
practices.
 
The
 
long-term
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
grid
ensures
 
that
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
and
 
the
 
entire

environment.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
grid
 
investments,
 
the
 
growth
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
is
 
supported
through
 
various
 
flexibility
 
solutions
 
and
 
electricity
 
market
 
development.
In
 
2024,
 
grid
 
investments
 
reached
 
a
 
record
 
-high
 
level
 
of
 
EUR
 
500
 
million.
 
The
 
grid
 
investments
 
made
 
during
 
the
period
 
under
 
review
 
enabled
 
new
 
customer
 
connections
 
and
 
electricity
 
system
 
growth,
 
increased
 
the
 
whole
 
power
system’s
 
system
 
security
 
and
 
improv
 
ed
 
the
 
functioning
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
A
 
total
 
of
 
560
 
kilometres
 
of
 
400
 
kV
 
transmission
 
lines
 
and
 
roughly
 
150
 
kilometres
 
of
 
110
 
kV
 
transmission
 
lines
 
are
currently
 
under
 
construction
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid.
 
A
 
total
 
of
 
79
 
substation
 
projects
 
are
 
being
 
implemented.
 
Finland’s
main
 
grid
 
consists
 
of
 
rough
 
ly
 
14,700
 
kilometres
 
of
 
transmission
 
lines
 
and
 
131
 
substations.
During
 
the
 
review
 
period,
 
Fingrid
 
decided
 
on
 
investments
 
to
 
construct
 
a
 
400-kilovolt
 
transmission
 
line
 
named
Lowlands
 
Line.
 
The
 
Lowlands
 
Line,
 
running
 
from
 
Kalajoki
 
to
 
Jämsä,
 
will
 
be
 
a
 
new
 
400-kilometre
 
-long
 
400-kV
 
main
transmission
 
line
 
to
 
support
 
the
 
transmission
 
of
 
wind
 
power,
 
with
 
production
 
heavily
 
concentrated
 
on
 
Finland’s
western
 
coast,
 
to
 
consumers.
 
The
 
project
 
is
 
due
 
for
 
completion
 
in
 
2027.
Of
 
the
 
investments
 
decided
 
earlier,
 
the
 
most
 
significant
 
projects
 
entering
 
the
 
construction
 
phase
 
in
 
2024
 
were
 
the
Lake
 
Line
 
and
 
a
 
400-kV
 
underground
 
cable
 
connection
 
in
 
Helsinki.
 
The
 
Lake
 
Line
 
is
 
a
 
roughly
 
300-kilometre-long
transmission
 
link
 
between
 
Vaala
 
and
 
Joroinen,
 
improving
 
the
 
transmission
 
of
 
electricity
 
from
 
production-heavy
northern
 
Finland
 
to
 
consumption-heavy
 
southern
 
Finland.
 
The
 
400
 
kV
 
underground
 
cable
 
connection
 
to
 
be
 
built
 
in
Helsinki
 
is
 
a
 
joint
 
project
 
between
 
the
 
City
 
of
 
Helsinki,
 
Helen
 
Sähköverkko
 
and
 
Fingrid,
 
which
 
will
 
meet
 
the
 
needs
 
of
growing
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
in
 
the
 
capital.
 
The
 
construction
 
of
 
the
 
new
 
cable
 
connection
 
began
 
in
 
spring
 
2024
and
 
will
 
be
 
completed
 
in
 
2026.
The
 
Tammisto
 
substation
 
in
 
Vantaa
 
was
 
expanded
 
with
 
a
 
third
 
transformer
 
to
 
also
 
respond
 
to
 
the
 
increase
 
in
electricity
 
consumption
 
in
 
Helsinki.
 
Fingrid
 
will
 
also
 
expand
 
a
 
substation
 
located
 
in
 
Kajaani
 
and
 
build
 
new
 
substations
in
 
Kouvola
 
and
 
Hamina
 
to
 
enable
 
new
 
customer
 
connections.
 
A
 
substation
 
located
 
in
 
Jyväskylä
 
will
 
be
 
modernised
 
to
improve
 
system
 
security.
 
During
 
the
 
period
 
under
 
review,
 
Fingrid
 
also
 
made
 
an
 
investment
 
decision
 
on
 
the
procurement
 
of
 
20
 
capacitors
 
for
 
nine
 
of
 
its
 
substations,
 
which
 
will
 
make
 
it
 
possible
 
to
 
increase
 
the
 
north–south
electricity
 
transmission
 
capacity.
In
 
spring
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
released
 
a
 
study
 
of
 
the
 
possibilities
 
to
 
connect
 
offshore
 
wind
 
power
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid.
 
The
results
 
were
 
elaborated
 
further
 
based
 
on
 
stakeholder
 
feedback
 
in
 
the
 
autumn.
 
The
 
study
 
proposed
 
six
 
potential
connection
 
areas
 
where
 
linking
 
offshore
 
wind
 
farms
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
on
 
the
 
Finnish
 
mainland
 
is
 
technically
 
possible.
The
 
proposed
 
areas
 
were
 
Raisio,
 
Ulvila,
 
Närpiö,
 
Vaasa,
 
Kokkola
 
and
 
Raahe.
 
The
 
Ingå
 
area
 
In
 
Uusimaa
 
is
 
another
potential
 
connection
 
area
 
if
 
offshore
 
wind
 
power
 
development
 
becomes
 
feasible
 
also
 
in
 
Finland’s
 
southern
 
sea
areas.
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
committed
 
to
 
the
 
mitigation
 
of
 
any
 
negative
 
climate
 
impacts
 
from
 
grid
 
construction.
 
During
 
the
 
period
under
 
review,
 
Fingrid
 
decided
 
to
 
set
 
a
 
science-based
 
greenhouse
 
gas
 
(GHG)
 
emission
 
reduction
 
target
 
and
 
submit
 
it
to
 
the
 
Science
 
Based
 
Targets
 
initiative
 
(SBTi)
 
for
 
validation.
 
In
 
transmission
 
line
 
construction,
 
agreements
 
extending
 
until
 
2027
 
were
 
concluded
 
on
 
the
 
supply
 
of
 
low-emission
aluminium
 
conductors.
 
At
 
substations,
 
Fingrid
 
continued
 
work
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
growth
 
of
 
sulphur
 
hexafluoride
 
(SF6)
gas
 
volumes
 
by
 
focusing
 
on
 
SF6-free
 
gas
 
-insulated
 
switchgears.
 
The
 
company
 
acquired
 
for
 
the
 
first
 
time
 
steel
structures
 
made
 
from
 
recycled
 
steel
 
for
 
three
 
new
 
substations.
 
The
 
company’s
 
climate
 
-related
 
targets,
 
climate
benefits
 
and
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
are
 
disclosed,

Power
 
system
Electricity
 
consumption
 
in
 
Finland
 
grew
 
3,4
 
per
 
cent
 
in
 
2024
 
compared
 
to
 
the
 
previous
 
year.
 
The
 
growth
 
in
consumption
 
was
 
mainly
 
driven
 
by
 
data
 
centres
 
and
 
the
 
electrification
 
of
 
heating.
 
Fingrid’s
 
share
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
transmitted
 
in
 
Finland
 
also
 
grew
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
year
 
to
 
84.4
 
(82.9)
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
consumed
 
in
Finland.
 
Self-sufficiency
 
in
 
electricity
 
increased
 
in
 
2024.
 
On
 
an
 
annual
 
level,
 
Finland
 
is
 
almost
 
self-sufficient
 
in
 
terms
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption,
 
but
 
in
 
periods
 
of
 
freezing
 
cold
 
or
 
little
 
wind,
 
imported
 
electricity
 
is
required
 
to
 
ensure
 
sufficiency.
 
The
 
exports
 
of
 
electricity
 
from
 
Finland
 
were
 
restricted
 
by
 
outages
 
in
 
the
 
cross-border
links
 
due
 
to
 
failures
 
and
 
construction
 
work.
The
 
grid’s
 
system
 
security
 
remained
 
at
 
a
 
high
 
level,
 
despite
 
brief
 
disturbances,
 
more
 
connections
 
and
 
extensive
construction
 
work.
 
The
 
transmission
 
reliability
 
rate
 
during
 
the
 
year
 
under
 
review
 
was
 
99.9995
 
(99.99995)
 
per
 
cent.
The
 
transmission
 
reliability
 
rate
 
remains
 
at
 
an
 
excellent
 
level,
 
with
 
the
 
slight
 
drop
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
year
 
mainly
resulting
 
from
 
a
 
few
 
faults
 
occurring
 
in
 
the
 
main

The
 
long
 
and
 
exceptionally
 
cold
 
spell
 
during
 
the
 
first
 
week
 
of
 
the
 
year,
 
combined
 
with
 
failures
 
in
 
thermal
 
power
plants,
 
resulted
 
in
 
the
 
most
 
challenging
 
period
 
of
 
the
 
winter
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
adequate
 
supply
 
of
 
electricity.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
strained
 
power
 
balance,
 
Fingrid
 
raised
 
its
 
state
 
of
 
readiness
 
on
 
4
 
January
 
2024.
 
Despite
 
the
 
challenging
circumstances,
 
there
 
was
 
enough
 
electricity
 
and
 
Fingrid
 
cancelled
 
the
 
heightened
 
state
 
of
 
readiness
 
on
 
5
 
January
2024.
 
A
 
significant
 
factor
 
at
 
that
 
time
 
was
 
the
 
price
 
flexibility
 
of
 
consumers,
 
which
 
also
 
played
 
a
 
part
 
in
 
ensuring
 
the
availability
 
of
 
electricity.
The
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
peak
 
for
 
2024,
 
14,993
 
MWh,
 
was
 
reached
 
in
 
winter,
 
on
 
Wednesday
 
3
 
January
 
2024
between
 
7
 
and
 
8
 
pm.
 
The
 
production
 
peak
 
of
 
the
 
winter,
 
also
 
Finland’s
 
all-time
 
high
 
in
 
electricity
 
production,
 
14,246
MWh,
 
was
 
measured
 
on
 
26
 
January
 
2024
 
between
 
6
 
and
 
7
 
pm.
 
This
 
peak

March
 
2025
comprised
 
of
 
large
 
amounts
 
of
 
wind
 
power
 
(roughly
 
80%
 
of
 
the
 
installed
 
capacity)
 
and
 
the
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plants
running
 
at
 
full
 
power.
In
 
July,
 
a
 
major
 
grid
 
failure
 
occurred
 
in
 
Loimaa,
 
where
 
a
 
wooden
 
tower
 
of
 
a
 
110-kilovolt
 
transmission
 
line
 
fell
 
down
as
 
a
 
result
 
of
 
a
 
technical
 
fault.
 
The
 
disturbance
 
resulted
 
in
 
delivery
 
interruptions
 
at
 
roughly
 
10,000
 
points
 
of
electricity
 
consumption
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
outages
 
of
 
varying
 
length,
 
up
 
to
 
23
 
hours.
 
No
 
back-up
 
transmission
 
link
 
was
available
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
during
 
the
 
repair.
 
The
 
construction
 
of
 
a
 
new
 
transmission
 
line
 
and
 
substation
 
expansions
had
 
already
 
been
 
started
 
in
 
the
 
area
 
before
 
the
 
failure.
A
 
November
 
storm
 
had
 
the
 
exceptional
 
result
 
of
 
knocking
 
down
 
two
 
400-kV
 
transmission
 
line
 
towers
 
located
 
in
 
an
exposed
 
field
 
in
 
Eurajoki.
 
The
 
duration
 
of
 
the
 
disturbance
 
was
 
very
 
brief.
 
The
 
investigation
 
showed
 
that
 
the
 
fall
 
had
been
 
affected
 
by
 
structural
 
weakness
 
due
 
to
 
corrosion
 
in
 
the
 
guy
 
wires.
 
Because
 
of
 
this,
 
Fingrid
 
investigated
 
the
condition
 
of
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
towers
 
in
 
the
 
area.
In
 
2024,
 
disturbance-clearing
 
readiness
 
was
 
raised
 
a
 
few
 
times
 
due
 
to
 
weather
 
conditions,
 
for
 
example
 
forecasts
predicting
 
freezing
 
rain,
 
potential
 
crown
 
snow-load
 
or
 
heavy
 
wind.
 
The
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
between
 
Finland
 
and
Sweden
 
operated
 
reliably
 
in
 
2024.
 
The
 
link
 
with
 
northern
 
Sweden
 
was
 
constricted
 
in
 
spring
 
and
 
autumn
 
2024
 
due
 
to
construction
 
and
 
maintenance
 
work
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
and
 
Swedish
 
main
 
grids
 
and
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
construction
 
of
 
the
 
new
Aurora
 
Line
 
transmission
 
connection.
The
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
between
 
Finland
 
and
 
Estonia
 
operated
 
under
 
limitations
 
due
 
to
 
a
 
failure
 
of
 
the
 
EstLink
 
2
link
 
on
 
26
 
January
 
2024.
 
The
 
location
 
of
 
the
 
fault
 
was
 
pinpointed
 
off
 
the
 
Estonian
 
coast
 
and,
 
under
 
the
 
lead
 
of
 
the
Estonian
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator
 
Elering,
 
the
 
repair
 
work
 
was
 
completed
 
in
 
September
 
and
 
the
 
EstLink
 
2
resumed
 
commercial
 
operation
 
on
 
4
 
September
 
2024.
 
The
 
EstLink2
 
failed
 
again
 
on
 
25
 
December
 
2024.
 
The
 
failure
 
is
suspected
 
to
 
have
 
been
 
caused
 
by
 
the
 
m/s
 
Eagle
 
S
 
oil
 
tanker.
 
The
 
incident
 
is
 
being
 
investigated
 
by
 
authorities.
 
This
time,
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
leading
 
the
 
cable
 
repair
 
work
 
together
 
with
 
the
 
Estonian
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator
 
Elering.
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
expended
 
EUR
 
7.1
 
(0.9)
 
million
 
in
 
countertrade.

is
 
part
 
of
 
the

at
 
the

The
 
introduction
 
was
 
a
 
success
 
and
 
met
 
the
 
objectives.
 
The

has
 
increased

The

has
 
increased
 
as
 
a
 
result
 
of
 
the
 
expansion
 
of
 
Fingrid’s

the
 
growth
 
of

There
 
are
 
several
 
reasons
 
behind
 
the
 
growth
 
in
 
the

The
 
extensive

and
 
the
 
requirements
 
for
 
the
development
 
of
 
the

have
 
increased
 
the
 
workload.
 
As
 
business
 
requirements
 
increase,
 
the

also
 
need
 
to
 
expand.

Foremost
 
risks
Since
 
Fingrid
 
plays
 
a
 
significant
 
role
 
in
 
Finnish
 
society,
 
the
 
impact
 
of
 
risks
 
is
 
assessed
 
from
 
both
 
the
 
company’s
 
and
society’s
 
perspective.
 
Strategic
 
risks
 
are
 
considered
 
to
 
be
 
events
 
that
 
may
 
lead
 
to
 
a
 
material
 
deterioration
 
in
 
the
company’s
 
ability
 
to
 
operate
 
or
 
in
 
its
 
corporate
 
image
 
or,
 
in
 
the
 
worst
 
-case
 
scenario,
 
events
 
that
 
may
 
lead
 
to
 
the
company’s
 
operations
 
being
 
called
 
into
 
question
 
by
 
society.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
three
 
identified
 
strategic
 
risks
 
is
 
a
 
severe
 
disturbance
 
related
 
to
 
the
functionality
 
of
 
the

caused
 
by,
 
among
 
other
 
things,
 
a
 
technical
 
malfunction,
 
an
 
extreme
 
weather
 
event,
 
human
 
error,
 
an
accident,
 
vandalism
 
or
 
the
 
simultaneous
 
occurrence
 
of
 
several
 
of
 
these
 
events.
 
A
 
blackout
 
can
 
paralyse
 
society’s
functions
 
and
 
cause
 
major
 
damage
 
to
 
Finnish
 
business
 
and
 
industry.
 
A
 
significant
 
negative
 
change
 
in
 
regulation
 
constitutes
 
a
 
material
 
strategic
 
risk
 
for
 
the
 
company’s
 
operations,
affecting
 
the
 
company’s
 
responsibilities,
 
scope
 
of
 
its
 
mission
 
and
 
financial
 
operating
 
conditions.
 
Financial
 
regulation
directly
 
impacts
 
shareholder
 
value,
 
financing
 
and
 
credit
 
ratings,
 
thus
 
creating
 
the
 
framework
 
for
 
the
 
company’s
investment
 
programme
 
and
 
mitigation
 
of
 
financial
 
risk.
 
The
 
third
 
strategic
 
risk
 
for
 
the
 
company’s
 
operations
 
is
 
the
 
possibility
 
of
 
a
 
distortion
 
in
 
the
 
corporate
 
culture
 
under
the
 
cover
 
of
 
monopolistic
 
operations,
 
which
 
can
 
surface
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
disregard
 
for
 
sustainability
 
requirements
 
or
other
 
unprofessional
 
behaviour.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
the
 
strategic
 
risks,
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
regularly
 
receives
 
reports
 
on
 
business
 
risks
 
that
 
have
 
been
identified
 
as
 
material
 
and
 
which
 
are
 
related
 
to

the
 
electricity
 
market,
 
customer
 
activities,
 
the

additionally
 
includes
 
various
 
risks
 
linked
 
with
 
major
 
financial
 
value,
 
such
 
as
 
compliance,
 
the
 
management
 
of
electricity
 
transmission,
 
solvency
 
and
 
liquidity,
 
the
 
management
 
of
 
loss
 
power
 
and
 
reserves,
 
and
 
counterparty
 
risks.
As
 
the
 
company’s
 
operating
 
environment
 
changes,
 
the
 
risk
 
of
 
the
 
operations
 
has
 
grown.
 
A
 
weather
 
-dependent,
expanding
 
electricity
 
system
 
and
 
large
 
-capacity
 
production
 
units
 
increase
 
the
 
significance
 
of
 
power
 
system
management
 
and
 
balance
 
service
 
business
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
operations.
 
The
 
expanding,
 
increasingly
 
complex
electricity
 
system
 
will
 
increase
 
the
 
share
 
of
 
market
 
-based
 
costs,
 
such
 
as
 
reserve,
 
loss
 
power
 
and
 
congestion
 
costs,
 
of
the
 
company’s
 
total
 
costs
 
and
 
also
 
their
 
significance
 
in
 
corporate
 
finances.
 
Predicting
 
the
 
market
 
-based
 
costs
 
will
 
be
increasingly
 
difficult
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
volatility
 
of
 
electricity
 
prices
 
and
 
transmission
 
conditions.
 
The
 
company’s
 
major
investment
 
programme
 
will
 
increase
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
planned
 
outages
 
and
 
the
 
related
 
transmission
 
restrictions
 
and
risks
 
from
 
the
 
outages.
 
Fingrid
 
assumes
 
a
 
significant
 
financial
 
risk
 
of
 
the
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties
 
by
 
maintaining
the
 
national
 
power
 
balance.
 
The
 
changes
 
in
 
the
 
price
 
of
 
imbalance
 
power
 
can
 
also
 
unexpectedly
 
increase
 
the
company’s
 
counterparty
 
risks,
 
which
 
the
 
company
 
mitigates
 
mainly
 
by
 
the
 
collaterals
 
required
 
from
 
the
 
balance
responsible
 
parties
 
and
 
by
 
other
 
operational
 
terms
 
specified
 
in
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
of
 
the
 
balance
 
service.
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid’s
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management
 
(ERM)
 
was
 
subject
 
to
 
an
 
internal
 
audit.
 
The
 
audit
 
did
 
not
 
reveal
 
any
major
 
shortcomings
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
risk
 
management.
 
The
 
company’s
 
ERM
 
development
 
programme
 
was
completed.
 
The
 
key
 
development
 
areas
 
concerned
 
the
 
reform
 
of
 
the
 
risk
 
management
 
model
 
and
 
risk
 
criteria,
 
as
well
 
as
 
data
 
and
 
technology
 
solutions.

in

Legal
 
proceedings
 
and
 
proceedings
 
by
 
authorities
 
On
 
2
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
conditions
 
of
 
balance
 
service.
 
The
 
appeal
 
mainly
 
concerns
 
the
 
collateral
 
model
 
for
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties
presented
 
in
 
the
 
decision.
 
In
 
November
 
2023,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
issued
 
a
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
for
balance
 
responsible
 
parties,
 
which
 
include
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
how
 
collateral
 
requirements
 
are
 
determined.
 
The
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
includes
 
major
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
 
collateral
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
and
 
sets
 
apart
Finland’s
 
collateral
 
model
 
from
 
that
 
used
 
in
 
other
 
Nordic
 
countries.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
collateral
 
model
 
include
 
a
 
major
 
reduction
 
in
 
the
 
required
 
collaterals,
 
elimination
 
of
 
the
 
requirement
 
to
 
provide
 
an
adequate
 
additional
 
collateral
 
and
 
a
 
possible
 
collateral
 
ceiling.
On
 
29
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
methods
concerning
 
the
 
specification
 
of
 
the
 
profit
 
for
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations
 
for
 
the
 
sixth
 
regulatory
period
 
1
 
January
 
2024–31
 
December
 
2027
 
and
 
seventh
 
regulatory
 
period
 
1
 
January
 
2028–31
 
December
 
2031.
According
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
assessment,
 
the
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
is
 
a
 
significant
 
weakening
 
of
 
the
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations’
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
regulatory
 
method
 
that
 
expired
 
at
 
year
 
-end.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
view,
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
impacts
 
in
 
preparing
 
the
 
regulatory
 
model
 
decision
 
has
 
been
 
deficient
 
and
 
there
 
are
 
still
issues
 
open
 
to
 
interpretation
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
presented
 
decision.
 
The
 
decision
 
weakens
 
Fingrid’s
 
ability
 
to
 
invest.
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
a
 
solution
 
that
 
would
 
also
 
enable
 
the
 
future
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
grid,
 
allowing
 
the
 
hundreds
 
of
billions
 
in
 
green
 
transition
 
investments
 
in
 
Finland
 
to
 
be
 
implemented
 
as
 
planned.
On
 
15
 
February
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
given
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
11
January
 
2024
 
on
 
the
 
scope
 
of
 
the
 
national
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
systems
 
responsibility
 
regarding
 
the
 
grid
connection
 
of
 
the
 
OL3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant.
 
Teollisuuden
 
Voima
 
Oyj
 
(“TVO”)
 
lodged
 
a
 
request
 
for
 
an
 
investigation
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
25
 
May
 
2022
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
claims
 
by
 
TVO
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
neglected
 
its
 
obligation
 
to
develop
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
as
 
stated
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act
 
and/or
 
other
 
applicable
 
legislation,
 
and
 
that,
 
as
a
 
result,
 
it
 
has
 
placed
 
unlawful
 
restrictions
 
on
 
connecting
 
the
 
Olkiluoto
 
3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant
 
to
 
the
 
grid,
 
and
 
that
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
its
 
administrative
 
obligations
 
linked
 
to
 
carrying
 
out
 
its
 
public
 
administrative
 
task.
 
The
 
Energy
Authority
 
states
 
in
 
its
 
decision
 
of
 
11
 
January
 
2024
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
fulfilled
 
its
 
development,
 
connection
 
and
 
transmission
obligations
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
also
 
found
 
the
 
1,300
 
MW
 
power
 
limit
specified
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
connection
 
terms
 
justified
 
and
 
did
 
not
 
find
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
have
 
restricted
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
access
 
to
 
the
grid.
 
In
 
its
 
decision,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
sees,
 
however,
 
that
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
falls
 
under
 
Fingrid’s
responsibility
 
based
 
on
 
a
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
as
 
intended
 
by
 
legislation
 
and
 
that
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
Article
 
9
 
of
 
the
 
Commission
 
Regulation
 
(EU)
 
2017/1485
 
establishing
 
a

it
 
applies
 
before
 
the

Authority
 
for
 
approval
 
prior
 
to
 
their
 
implementation.
 
In
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision,
 
Fingrid
 
submitted
 
its
 
proposal
 
concerning
 
the
 
determination
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
OL3
 
protection

on

its
 
decision
 
on
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for

on
 
30
 
December
 
2024.
 
According
 
to

Fingrid
 
and

have
 
agreed
 
on
 
provisional

arrangements
 
for
 
Olkiluoto

scheme
 
as
 
of
 
1

on
 
the

The
 
provisional

for
 
the

scheme
 
do
 
not
 
directly
 
affect
 
the
 
legal

extent,
 
which
 
are

kick-off
 
meeting
 
for
 
the
 
expropriation
 
procedure
 
on
 
1
 
December
 
2022,
 
the
 
expropriation
committee
 
decided
 
that
 
the
 
expropriating
 
party
 
is
 
obligated
 
to
 
assume
 
responsibility
 
for
 
the
 
tree
 
stands
 
within
 
the
scope
 
of
 
the
 
rights
 
and
 
restrictions
 
set
 
in
 
the
 
expropriation
 
permit,
 
unless
 
otherwise
 
agreed.
 
The
 
final
 
meeting
 
of
 
the
expropriation
 
procedure
 
was
 
held
 
on
 
16
 
November
 
2023.
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
concerning
 
the
Torna
 
–Lautakari
 
tree
 
stands’
 
expropriation
 
to
 
the
 
Southwest

Events
 
after
 
the
 
review
 
period
 
and
 
future
 
outlook
Fingrid
 
Group’s
 
result
 
for
 
the
 
2025
 
financial
 
period,
 
excluding
 
changes
 
in
 
the
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
derivatives
 
and
 
before
taxes,
 
is
 
expected
 
to
 
be
 
on
 
the
 
same
 
level
 
as
 
in
 
2024.
 
This
 
estimation
 
includes
 
the
 
recognition
 
of
 
congestion
 
income
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
turnover
 
and
 
other
 
operating
 
income.
 
The
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
investment
 
programme
 
is
advancing.
 
The
 
investment
 
level
 
is
 
estimated
 
to
 
be
 
lower
 
than
 
in
 
the
 
previous
 
year.
 
The
 
power
 
system
 
is
 
expanding
and
 
its
 
complexity
 
is
 
increasing,
 
and
 
the
 
availability
 
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
flexibility
 
is
 
subject
 
to
uncertainty.
 
This,
 
coupled
 
with
 
growing
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
needs,
 
will
 
increase
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
and
 
the
 
uncertainty
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
costs
 
in
 
2025.
 
At
 
the
 
same
 
time,
 
fluctuations
 
in
 
the
 
national
 
power
 
balance
 
will
increase.
 
The
 
grid’s
 
connection
 
capability
 
will
 
be
 
affected
 
by
 
the
 
location
 
of
 
the
 
customer
 
projects
 
to
 
be
 
connected,
flexibility
 
in
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
and
 
changes
 
in
 
customer
 
needs.
 
The
 
company’s
 
financial
position
 
is
 
expected
 
to
 
remain
 
stable.
The
 
company’s
 
balance
 
sheet
 
contains
 
a
 
significant
 
amount
 
of
 
congestion
 
income,
 
mostly
 
from
 
2022
 
from
 
the
 
cross-
border
 
links
 
between
 
Estonia
 
and
 
Finland
 
and
 
Sweden
 
and
 
Finland.
 
Also
 
going
 
forward,
 
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
to
 
use
congestion
 
income
 
actively
 
for
 
investments
 
that
 
will
 
increase
 
cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
and
 
to
 
cover
operating
 
costs
 
to
 
benefit
 
Fingrid’s
 
customers.
 
The
 
use
 
of
 
congestion
 
income
 
is
 
decided
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
based
 
on
 
an
 
EU
 
regulation.
Concerning
 
the
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
EstLink2
 
submarine
 
cables,
 
the
 
maritime
 
court
 
ordered,
 
on
 
3
 
January
 
2025,
 
the
seizure
 
of
 
the
 
vessel
 
suspected
 
of
 
causing
 
the
 
damage,
 
Eagle
 
S,
 
to
 
secure
 
the
 
claims
 
of
 
Fingrid
 
and
 
the
 
other
 
parties
applying
 
to
 
the
 
court
 
for
 
the
 
seizure.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
decided
 
to
 
waive
 
enforcement
 
of
 
the
 
seizure
 
of
 
the
 
Eagle
 
S
 
oil
tanker
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
financial
 
risk
 
involved.
 
The
 
decision
 
to
 
waive
 
enforcement
 
of
 
the
 
seizure
 
does
 
not
 
affect
 
further
legal
 
actions.
 
Fingrid
 
will
 
sue
 
for
 
damages
 
caused
 
by
 
the
 
Eagle
 
S.
On
 
29
 
January
 
2025,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
issued
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
30
December
 
2024
 
concerning
 
the
 
confirmation
 
of
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
for
 
the
 
OL3
 
nuclear
 
power
plant’s
 
system
 
protection
 
scheme.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
 
view,
 
the
 
OL3
 
system
 
protection
 
scheme
 
is
 
not
 
included
 
in
 
its
statutory
 
system
 
responsibility,
 
which
 
means
 
that
 
it
 
is
 
not
 
responsible
 
for
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
OL3
 
system
protection
 
scheme
 
or
 
any
 
fees.

Board
 
of
 
Directors’
 
proposal
 
for
 
the
 
distribution
 
of
 
profit
The
 
guiding
 
principle
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
dividend
 
policy
 
is
 
to
 
distribute
 
substantially
 
all
 
of
 
the
 
parent
 
company
 
profit
 
as
dividends.
 
When
 
making
 
the
 
decision,
 
however,
 
the
 
economic
 
conditions,
 
the
 
company’s
 
near-term
 
capital
expenditure
 
and
 
development
 
needs
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
any
 
prevailing
 
financial
 
targets
 
of
 
the
 
company
 
are
 
always
 
taken
 
into
account.
Fingrid
 
Oyj’s
 
parent
 
company’s
 
profit
 
for
 
the
 
financial
 
year
 
was
 
EUR
 
134,979,777.26
 
and
 
distributable
 
funds
 
in
 
the
financial
 
statements
 
total
 
EUR
 
172,219,414.81.
 
Since
 
the
 
close
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
year,
 
there
 
have
 
been
 
no
 
material
changes
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
position
 
and,
 
in
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors’
 
view,
 
the
 
proposed
 
dividend
 
distribution
does
 
not
 
compromise
 
the
 
company’s
 
solvency.
After
 
the
 
closing
 
date,
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
has
 
proposed
 
to
 
the
 
Annual
 
General
 
Meeting
 
of
 
shareholders
 
that,
 
on
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
balance
 
sheet
 
adopted
 
for
 
the
 
financial
 
period
 
that
 
ended
 
on
 
31
 
December
 
2024,
 
a
 
dividend
 
of
 
EUR
53,400.00
 
at
 
maximum
 
per
 
share
 
be
 
paid
 
for
 
Series
 
A
 
shares
 
and
 
EUR
 
19,500.00
 
at
 
maximum
 
for
 
Series
 
B
 
shares,
 
for
a
 
total
 
of
 
EUR
 
135,281,700.00
 
at
 
maximum.
 
The
 
dividends
 
will
 
be
 
paid
 
in
 
two
 
instalments.
 
The
 
first
 
instalment
 
of
 
EUR
35,600.00
 
for
 
each
 
Series
 
A
 
share
 
and
 
EUR
 
13,000.00
 
for
 
each
 
Series
 
B
 
share,
 
totalling
 
EUR
 
90,187,800.00
 
in
dividends,
 
shall
 
be
 
paid
 
on
 
7
 
April
 
2025.
 
The
 
second
 
instalment
 
of
 
EUR
 
17,800.00
 
at
 
maximum
 
per
 
share
 
for
 
each
Series
 
A
 
share
 
and
 
EUR
 
6,500.00
 
at
 
maximum
 
per

for
 
each
 
Series
 
B
 
share,
 
totalling
 
EUR
 
45,093,900.00
 
at
maximum
 
in
 
dividends,
 
will
 
be
 
paid
 
according
 
to
 
the
 
Board’s
 
decision
 
after
 
the
 
half-year
 
report
 
has
 
been
 
confirmed,
based
 
on
 
the
 
authorisation
 
given
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
in
 
the
 
Annual
 
General
 
Meeting.
 
The
 
Board
 
has
 
the
 
right
 
to
 
decide,
based
 
on
 
the
 
authorisation
 
granted
 
to
 
it,
 
on
 
the
 
payment
 
of
 
the
 
second
 
dividend
 
instalment
 
after
 
the
 
half-year
report
 
has
 
been
 
confirmed
 
and
 
it
 
has
 
assessed
 
the
 
company’s
 
solvency,
 
financial
 
position
 
and
 
financial
 
development.
The
 
dividends
 
that
 
have
 
been
 
decided
 
on
 
with
 
the
 
authorisation
 
given
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
will
 
be
 
paid
 
on
 
the
 
third
 
banking
day
 
after

Fingrid
 
is
 
Finland’s
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator,
 
whose
 
tasks
 
are
 
defined
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
Act.
 
The
 
company’s
 
obligations
 
are
 
to
 
maintain,
 
operate
 
and
 
develop
 
its
 
electricity
 
network
 
and
 
connections
 
to
 
other
networks,
 
connect
 
new
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
to
 
the
 
electricity
 
network,
 
transmit
 
electricity
 
and
maintain
 
a
 
balance
 
between
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
production.
 
In
 
addition,
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
the
 
obligation
 
to
develop
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
 
The
 
EU
 
Regulation
 
on
 
the
 
internal
 
market
 
for
 
electricity
 
obligates
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
cooperate
 
within
 
ENTSO-E,
 
the
 
European
Network
 
of
 
Transmission
 
System
 
Operators
 
for
 
Electricity,
 
and
 
also
 
regionally
 
with
 
Nordic
 
and
 
Baltic
 
transmission
grid
 
companies,
 
to
 
improve
 
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
internal
 
market
 
in
 
electricity.
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
are
 
supervised
and
 
regulated
 
nationally
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority,
 
which
 
has
 
granted
 
the
 
company
 
a
 
licence
 
for
 
the
 
transmission
 
grid
operations.
 
Through
 
its
 
operations,
 
the
 
company
 
enables
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
and
 
maintains
 
the
 
high
 
quality
 
of
 
the
power
 
system.
 
The
 
company
 
develops
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
 
in
 
a
 
changing
 
operating
environment,
 
improving
 
the
 
operating
 
conditions
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid

Finland,
 
as
 
reported
 
in

As
 
a
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator,
 
Fingrid
 
influences
 
sustainability
 
matters
 
through
 
its
 
strategy
 
and
 
basic
 
tasks,
especially
 
by
 
securing
 
the
 
social
 
and
 
financial
 
well
 
-being
 
of
 
Finnish
 
society
 
and
 
enabling
 
the
 
cleaning
 
up
 
of
 
the
energy
 
system.
 
The
 
goal
 
of
 
grid
 
investments
 
is
 
to
 
create
 
the
 
conditions
 
for
 
Finland’s
 
competitiveness
 
in
 
industrial
investments
 
and
 
to
 
enable
 
the
 
achievement
 
of
 
Finland’s
 
carbon
 
neutrality
 
goal.
 
The
 
most
 
material
 
impacts
 
of

are
 
reflected
 
positively
 
in
 
a
 
well

The
 
value
 
of
 
the
 
basic
 
tasks
 
of
 
a
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator
 
and
critical
 
electricity
 
infrastructure
 
for
 
social
 
well
 
-being
 
is
 
evident
 
for
 
every
 
person
 
living
 
in
 
Finland
 
through
 
a
 
secure
supply
 
of
 
electricity
 
and
 
a
 
clean
 
power
 
system.
 
The
 
social
 
value
 
translates
 
into
 
competitiveness
 
for
 
Finland
 
based
 
on
clean,
 
reliable

Fingrid
 
enables
 
this
 
competitiveness
 
by
 
investing
 
in
 
the

cross-

transmission
 
connections
 
and
 
electricity

Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
as
 
the
 
party
 
charged
 
with
 
system
 
responsibility
 
for
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
impact
 
many
 
stakeholders.
Society
 
is
 
becoming
 
increasingly
 
reliant
 
on
 
electricity,
 
as
 
clean
 
energy
 
replaces
 
fossil
 
fuels.
 
A
 
large
 
part
 
of
 
the
electricity
 
used
 
in
 
Finland
 
is
 
transmitted
 
through
 
Fingrid’s
 
main
 
grid,
 
which
 
highlights
 
the
 
company’s
 
important
 
task
in
 
achieving
 
climate
 
goals.
 
The
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
Fingrid’s
 
investments
 
are
 
a
 
prerequisite
 
for
many
 
investments
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
use,
 
production
 
and
 
storage
 
of
 
electricity.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
reliable
 
electricity
transmission
 
and
 
the
 
power
 
system’s
 
balance
 
management,
 
stakeholders’
 
main
 
expectations
 
for
 
the
 
company
 
are
related
 
to
 
the
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
diversity
 
of
 
the
 
stakeholders,
 
individual
 
expectations
for
 
the
 
company
 
can
 
be
 
conflicting.
The
 
company’s
 
customer
 
base
 
has
 
diversified
 
following
 
the
 
energy
 
transformation.
 
New
 
actors
 
have
 
joined
 
the
customer
 
base,
 
representing
 
new
 
forms
 
of
 
electricity
 
production,
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
storage
 
and
 
electricity
market
 
services.
 
The
 
role
 
of
 
electricity
 
consumers
 
in
 
balancing
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
has
 
grown,
 
and
 
demand
 
for
flexibility
 
in
 
electricity
 
demand
 
and
 
production
 
has
 
increased,
 
creating
 
new
 
business
 
opportunities
 
for
 
a
 
number
 
of
actors.
The
 
scope
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
has
 
increased
 
rapidly.
 
New
 
investments
 
require
 
planning;
 
developing
 
and
implementing
 
electricity
 
market
 
solutions
 
requires
 
work;
 
and
 
the
 
growing
 
main
 
grid
 
requires
 
maintenance.
 
The
 
pace
of
 
growth
 
in
 
wind
 
power
 
production
 
in
 
Finland
 
has
 
been
 
among
 
the
 
fastest
 
in
 
Europe,
 
and
 
this
 
requires
 
new
 
kinds
 
of
solutions
 
and
 
cooperation
 
models
 
from
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
respond
 
to
 
the
 
high
 
demand
 
for
 
connections
 
and
 
the
 
rapid
 
change
in
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
.
 
This
 
development
 
creates
 
new
 
opportunities
 
not
 
only
 
for
 
the
 
company’s
 
own
 
personnel
 
but
also
 
for
 
partners,
 
such
 
as
 
contractors,
 
supplier,
 
financers
 
and
 
various
 
developers.

standards.
The
 
material
 
sustainability-related
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
are
 
taken
 
into
 
account
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
strategy,
management
 
system
 
and
 
risk
 
management.
 
This
 
integrated
 
approach
 
implements
 
the
 
interaction
 
of
 
sustainability
topics
 
with
 
the
 
strategy
 
and
 
business

Fingrid
 
has
 
not
 
identified
 
any
 
material
 
risks
 
and

that
would
 
have
 
materially
 
affected
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
position,
 
financial
 
result
 
and

during
 
the

period,
 
except
 
for
 
the
 
opportunity
 
for

and
 
related
 
investments.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
also
 
not
identified
 
any
 
material
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
for
 
which
 
there
 
would
 
be
 
a
 
significant
 
risk
 
of
 
a
 
material

within
 
the
 
next

period
 
to
 
the
 
carrying
 
amounts
 
of
 
assets
 
and
 
liabilities
 
reported
 
in
 
the
 
related
financial
 
statements.
 
The
 
company’s
 
material
 
sustainability-related
 
impacts
 
described
 
below
 
were
 
already
 
realised
during
 
the
 
reporting
 
period.
Fingrid
 
enables
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation
 
through
 
grid
 
investments,
 
electricity
 
market
 
solutions
 
and
 
customer
flexibility.
 
Fingrid
 
creates
 
a
 
positive
 
climate
 
impact
 
through
 
its
 
operations
 
by
 
reinforcing
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
developing
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
 
to
 
meet
 
the
 
needs
 
of
 
clean
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
the
 
electricity-consuming
industries
 
and
 
other
 
societal
 
parties.
 
This
 
enables
 
the
 
growth
 
of
 
a
 
clean
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
helps
 
indirectly
 
avoid
GHG
 
emissions.
 
Developing
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
 
ensuring
 
the
 
quality
 
of
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
are
 
necessary
 
for
 
both
the
 
functioning
 
of
 
society
 
and
 
the
 
achievement
 
of
 
climate
 
goals.
 
However,
 
building
 
the
 
transmission
 
grid
 
causes
 
land
use
 
change,
 
deforestation
 
and
 
biodiversity
 
loss.
 
Risks
 
can
 
be
 
associated
 
with
 
the
 
grid
 
construction
 
materials
 
needed
to
 
build
 
a
 
clean
 
power
 
system,
 
as
 
they
 
can
 
be
 
subject
 
to
 
cost
 
increases
 
or
 
availability
 
challenges.
In
 
addition
 
to
 
the
 
occupational
 
well-being
 
and
 
safety
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
own
 
personnel,
 
the
 
impacts
 
on
 
the
 
workers
 
in
the
 
value
 
chain
 
are
 
material
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
business
 
model,
 
which
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
partnership.
 
Partners
 
are,
 
for
 
example,
responsible
 
for
 
grid
 
construction
 
and
 
maintenance
 
work.
 
Safe
 
working
 
conditions
 
and
 
reasonable
 
contract
 
policies
for
 
contractors
 
and
 
suppliers
 
are
 
at
 
the
 
core,
 
especially
 
at
 
worksites
 
and
 
projects
 
in
 
Finland,
 
but
 
also
 
when
 
making
international
 
equipment
 
and
 
materials
 
procurement.
Landowners
 
of
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
are
 
a
 
key
 
affected
 
community.
 
Fingrid
 
expropriates
 
a
 
right-of-
use
 
to
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
area
 
from
 
private
 
landowners
 
in
 
order
 
to
 
be
 
able
 
to
 
build,
 
operate
 
and
 
maintain
 
a
transmission
 
line,
 
and
 
this
 
is
 
associated
 
with
 
a
 
risk
 
of
 
erosion
 
of
 
general
 
acceptance.
 
The
 
company
 
also
 
plays
 
a
central
 
role
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
consumers
 
and
 
end-users,
 
as
 
the
 
Fingrid
 
Datahub
 
maintains
 
and
 
manages
 
Finland’s
consumer
 
customers’
 
data
 
regarding
 
electricity
 
use,
 
enabling
 
the
 
efficient
 
functioning
 
of
 
the
 
retail
 
market.
 
Material
impacts
 
in
 
this
 
activity
 
are
 
related
 
to
 
privacy
 
and
 
data
 
protection.
Transition
 
risks,
 
i.e.
 
changes
 
resulting
 
from
 
the
 
transition
 
to
 
a
 
clean

system,
 
include
 
the
 
growing
 
complexity
 
of
the

system
 
as
 
weather-dependent
 
production
 
increases
 
and
 
variations
 
in

and

intensify.
 
Finland’s
 
transition
 
towards
 
a
 
clean
 
and
 
growing
 
power
 
system
 
has
 
been
 
one
 
of
 
the

Europe.
 
Part
 
of
 
this
 
development
 
can
 
be
 
seen
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
and
 
on
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
 
The
 
described
development
 
is
 
reflected
 
in
 
the
 
increase
 
and
 
variation
 
of
 
power
 
system
 
maintenance
 
costs,
 
such
 
as
 
reserve
 
and
transmission
 
loss
 
costs,
 
which
 
results
 
in
 
uncertainty
 
in
 
the
 
pricing
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
services,
 
requiring
 
corporate
 
financing
sustainability.
 
The
 
number
 
of
 
different
 
power
 
system
 
disturbances
 
has
 
also
 
grown,
 
increasing
 
risks
 
in
 
the
 
operation
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
and
 
availability
 
of
 
electricity.
 
Fingrid
 
aims
 
to
 
offer
 
its
 
customers
 
high-quality
 
electricity
transmission,
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
and
 
opportunities
 
to
 
connect
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
to
 
meet
 
Finland’s
climate
 
targets
 
in
 
a
 
sufficiently
 
fast
 
and
 
cost
 
-effective
 
manner.
 
This
 
requires
 
developing
 
the
 
electricity
 
market,
balancing
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
production,
 
building
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
 
creating
 
various
 
flexibility
 
solutions
together
 
with
 
customers.
 
A
 
key
 
to
 
success
 
in
 
this
 
is
 
a
 
regulatory
 
framework
 
that
 
enables
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
and
well
 
-functioning
 
cooperation
 
between
 
Fingrid,
 
the
 
company's
 
customers
 
and
 
various
 
stakeholders.Sufficient
 
building
of
 
grid
 
infrastructure
 
also
 
requires
 
proactive
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessments,
 
fast
 
project
 
permit
 
processes
 
and
effective
 
project
 
management.
 
Fingrid’s
 
extensive
 
investment
 
programme
 
requires,
 
in
 
addition
 
to
 
income
 
financing,
a
 
lot
 
of
 
debt
 
financing,
 
for
 
which
 
the
 
company
 
uses
 
the
 
Green
 
Finance
 
Framework.
 
The
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
and
 
the
 
growth
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
can
 
be
 
subject
 
to
 
risks
 
from
changes
 
in
 
legislation
 
and
 
other
 
regulations
 
that
 
restrict
 
the
 
company’s
 
operating
 
conditions.
 
Some
 
of
 
these
 
risks
 
are
climate
 
-related
 
transition
 
risks.
 
A
 
significant
 
negative
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
regulatory
 
landscape
 
is
 
identified
 
as
 
a
 
strategic
risk
 
for
 
the
 
company,
 
in
 
addition
 
to
 
a
 
serious
 
electricity
 
disturbance
 
and
 
the
 
warping
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
culture.
 
The
needs
 
of
 
different
 
stakeholders
 
for
 
developing
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
are
 
increasing
 
sharply.
 
Fingrid’s
 
corporate
 
financing
together
 
with
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
controls
 
sets
 
limitations
 
on
 
annual
 
investment
 
levels.
 
The
 
progress
 
of
 
the
green
 
transition
 
is
 
at
 
the
 
core
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
strategy
 
and
 
business
 
model.
 
In
 
2024,
 
the
 
company
 
analysed,
 
through
scenario
 
analyses
 
on
 
the
 
investment
 
programme
 
that
 
enables
 
the
 
green
 
transition,
 
its
 
strategy’s
 
and
 
business
model’s
 
resilience
 
and
 
ability
 
to
 
address
 
material
 
sustainability-related
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities.
 
The
scenarios
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
alternative
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
projections,
 
which
 
are
 
determined
 
by
 
the
progress
 
of
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
in
 
Finland.
 
The
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
investment
 
programme
 
depends
 
on
 
the
growth
 
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption.
 
In
 
the
 
company,
 
a
 
warping
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
culture
 
in
 
a
 
rapidly
changing
 
operating
 
environment
 
and
 
in
 
meeting
 
a
 
number
 
of
 
different
 
stakeholder
 
needs,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
breaches
 
of
 
the
company’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
or
 
values
 
could
 
impair
 
the
 
company’s
 
capacity
 
to
 
function
 
and
 
weaken
 
the
 
transmission
system
 
operator’s
 
reputation
 
as
 
an
 
enabler
 
of
 
the
 
green
 
transition.
 
Fingrid’s
 
risk
 
management
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
holistic
risk
 
and
 
continuity
 
management,
 
in
 
which
 
event
 
impacts
 
are
 
extensively
 
assessed
 
within
 
the
 
company
 
and
 
risk
management
 
is
 
designed
 
accordingly.

Description
 
of
 
the
 
processes
 
to
 
identify
 
and
 
assess
 
material
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
In
 
2023,
 
Fingrid
 
carried
 
out
 
a
 
double
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
with
 
support
 
from
 
an
 
external
 
expert.
 
The
 
impacts,
opportunities
 
and
 
risks
 
identified
 
in
 
the
 
assessment,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
related
 
sustainability
 
topics,
 
form
 
the
 
basis
 
for
 
the
sustainability
 
reporting
 
that
 
will
 
be
 
required
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
corporate
 
responsibility
 
work.
 
With
 
regard
 
to
 
the
 
2024
reporting
 
period,
 
the
 
double
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
was
 
found
 
to
 
be
 
up
 
to
 
date
 
by
 
the
 
executive
 
management
 
group
and
 
the
 
Board
 
of

in
 
society.
 
Sustainability
 
risks
 
are
 
not
 
prioritised
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
other
risks;
 
instead,
 
these
 
risks,
 
including
 
climate
 
-related
 
risks,
 
are
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management.
 
The
assessment
 
of
 
business
 
risks
 
is
 
developed
 
further
 
by
 
also
 
including
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
human
 
rights
 
risks
 
where
applicable.
 
The
 
sustainability
 
materiality
 
process
 
also
 
takes
 
into
 
account
 
the
 
connection
 
to
 
risk
 
management.
 
The
selected
 
approach
 
ensures
 
that
 
addressing
 
sustainability
 
risks
 
is
 
a
 
natural
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
management
 
and
decision-making.
The

process
 
was
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Accounting
 
Act
 
and
 
other

which
 
were
supplemented
 
with
 
entity-specific
 
sustainability
 
topics
 
material
 
for
 
Fingrid.
 
The
 
input
 
parameters
 
used
 
in
 
the
assessment
 
were
 
the
 
key
 
risks
 
and
 
the
 
related
 
financial
 
impacts
 
identified
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
proactive
 
risk
 
management,
maintained
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
risk
 
register
 
and
 
reported
 
to
 
the
 
company’s
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
other
relevant
 
internal
 
and
 
external
 
information
 
sources,
 
such
 
as
 
the
 
SASB’s
 
industry-specific
 
reporting
 
standard.
 
The
materiality
 
analysis
 
conducted
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
when
 
applying
 
the
 
GRI
 
reporting
 
guidelines
 
(Global
 
Reporting
 
Initiative,
Sustainability
 
Reporting
 
Standards)
 
was
 
also
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
assessment.
 
As
 
for
 
stakeholders,
 
the
 
input
 
data
 
included
 
the
results
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
responsibility
 
stakeholder
 
survey
 
2022
 
and
 
up-to-date
 
feedback
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
consultation
and
 
cooperation
 
with
 
its
 
affected
 
stakeholders.
For
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
materiality
 
related
 
to
 
pollution,
 
water
 
resources,
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
resource
 
use
 
and
 
circular
economy,
 
the
 
company
 
had
 
access
 
to
 
information
 
about
 
the
 
location
 
of
 
its
 
sites,
 
its
 
holdings
 
and
 
its
 
operations
 
as
 
a
whole.
 
The
 
geospatial
 
coordinates
 
of
 
the
 
assets
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
areas
 
that
 
are
 
sensitive
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
biodiversity
 
are
managed
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
geographic
 
database.
 
The
 
environmental
 
impacts
 
of
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
substations
 
and
reserve
 
power
 
plants
 
are
 
known,
 
and
 
impact
 
assessments
 
take
 
place
 
continuously
 
in,
 
among
 
other
 
things,
 
the
statutory
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessments
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects
 
and
 
through
 
the
 
reserve
 
power
 
plants’
environmental
 
permit
 
obligation.
 
In
 
this
 
context,
 
regular
 
consultation
 
with
 
authorities
 
and
 
affected
 
communities
 
also
takes
 
place,
 
including
 
impacts
 
on
 
pollution,
 
water
 
resources,
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems,
 
and
 
resource
 
use
 
and
circular
 
economy.
 
Transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
are
 
known
 
to
 
have
 
the
 
potential
 
to
 
both
 
reinforce
 
and
 
weaken
 
the
ecosystem
 
services
 
provided
 
by
 
nature.
 
In
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
overall
 
materiality,
 
both
 
the
 
direct
 
impact
 
drivers
 
and
the
 
impacts
 
on
 
the
 
state
 
of
 
species,
 
ecosystems
 
and
 
the
 
services
 
offered
 
by
 
them
 
were
 
considered.
 
To
 
assess
biodiversity
 
-related
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities,
 
no
 
separate
 
scenario
 
or
 
resilience
 
analysis
 
was
 
performed,
 
but
 
the
assessment
 
acknowledged
 
the
 
connections
 
between
 
the
 
changing
 
climate
 
and
 
the
 
loss
 
of
 
biodiversity
 
as
 
described
 
in
connection
 
with
 
disclosure
 
requirement
 
E4-1
 
(Transition
 
plan
 
for
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation).
As
 
for
 
the
 
relevant
 
business
 
conduct
 
criteria,
 
the
 
starting
 
point
 
was
 
the
 
company’s
 
operations
 
in
 
Finland
 
in
 
the
electricity
 
transmission
 
sector.
 
Fingrid’s
 
business
 
consists
 
of
 
grid
 
and
 
balance
 
services,
 
in
 
addition
 
to
 
which
 
the
company
 
offers
 
other
 
electricity
 
market
 
-related
 
services,
 
such
 
as
 
information
 
exchange,
 
financial
 
transmission
 
rights
and
 
a
 
market
 
related
 
to
 
power
 
system
 
reserves.
The
 
double
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
consisted
 
of
 
three
 
elements:
 
initial
 
charting,
 
assessment
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
impacts
 
on
people
 
and
 
the
 
environment,
 
and
 
identification
 
and
 
assessment
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
impacts
 
on
 
Fingrid.
 
The
 
assessment
covered
 
short-term,
 
medium-term
 
and
 
long-term
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities,
 
taking
 
into
 
account
 
Fingrid’s
business
 
relationships
 
and
 
the
 
entire
 
value
 
chain
 
in
 
all
 
material
 
respects.
 
With
 
regard
 
to
 
the
 
value
 
chain,
 
the
 
impact
assessment
 
essentially
 
covered
 
international
 
goods
 
procurement,
 
the
 
operations
 
of
 
contractors
 
and
 
service
providers
 
and
 
the
 
electricity
 
market.
 
The
 
impact
 
assessment
 
was
 
performed
 
as
 
workshop
 
work
 
by
 
Fingrid’s

management
 
and
 
experts.
 
A
 
large
 
number
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
management
 
and
 
experts
 
from
 
different
 
functions
participated
 
in
 
the
 
workshops.
The
 
initial
 
charting
 
consisted
 
of
 
a
 
broad
 
review
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
material
 
sustainability
 
topics
 
from
 
the
 
perspectives
 
of
actual
 
and
 
potential
 
impacts
 
on
 
the
 
environment
 
or
 
people
 
and
 
financial
 
impacts
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
business.
 
Fingrid
identified
 
the
 
negative
 
and
 
positive
 
impacts
 
of
 
its
 
own
 
operations
 
and
 
those
 
resulting
 
from
 
its
 
business
 
relationships
with
 
upstream
 
and
 
downstream
 
value
 
chain
 
actors
 
on
 
people
 
and
 
the
 
environment
 
(impact
 
materiality)
 
and
 
the
financial
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
resulting
 
from
 
sustainability
 
factors
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
business.
 
The
 
initial
 
charting
 
utilised
information
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
 
regular
 
stakeholder
 
interaction
 
about
 
the
 
information
 
needs
 
of
 
key
 
affected
 
stakeholders
and
 
users
 
of
 
the
 
sustainability
 
statement.
 
The
 
initial
 
charting
 
resulted
 
in
 
a
 
preliminary
 
list
 
of
 
the
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
opportunities
 
related
 
to
 
sustainability
 
factors
 
for
 
prioritisation.
Thereafter,
 
Fingrid’s
 
management
 
and
 
experts
 
assessed
 
the
 
identified
 
negative
 
and
 
positive
 
impacts
 
on
 
people
 
and
the
 
environment
 
(impact
 
materiality)
 
based
 
on
 
scale,
 
scope
 
and
 
irremediability.
 
For
 
potential
 
impacts,
 
the
 
likelihood
of
 
their
 
materialisation
 
was
 
also
 
assessed.
 
Negative
 
and
 
positive
 
impacts
 
were
 
assessed
 
separately,
 
and
 
for
 
negative
human
 
rights
 
impacts,
 
the
 
assessment
 
was
 
primarily
 
based
 
on
 
their
 
severity,
 
considering
 
Fingrid’s
 
impacts
 
in
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
due
 
diligence
 
process.
Fingrid’s
 
management
 
and
 
experts
 
also
 
assessed
 
the
 
actual
 
and
 
potential
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
business
 
(financial
 
materiality)
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
size
 
and
 
likelihood
 
of
 
the
 
anticipated
 
impact.
 
The
 
assessment
 
was
performed
 
as
 
workshop
 
work
 
where
 
Fingrid’s
 
management
 
and
 
experts
 
placed
 
the
 
identified
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
opportunities
 
related
 
to
 
sustainability
 
factors
 
in
 
order
 
of
 
importance.
 
An
 
understanding
 
of
 
the
 
connections
 
of
 
the
identified
 
impacts
 
to
 
the
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
being
 
assessed
 
had
 
been
 
built
 
with
 
the
 
help
 
of
 
the
 
input
 
data
 
for
 
the
assessment
 
and
 
the
 
workshop
 
work.
Finally,
 
Fingrid’s
 
executive
 
management
 
group
 
ensured
 
the
 
commensurability
 
of
 
the
 
assessments
 
and
 
set
 
threshold
values
 
to
 
determine
 
which
 
sustainability
 
topics
 
are
 
material
 
for
 
reporting.
 
Fingrid’s
 
executive
 
management
 
group
validated
 
the
 
results
 
of
 
the
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
in
 
June
 
2023.
 
The
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
discussed
 
it
 
in
 
June
 
2023.
The
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
will
 
be
 
reviewed
 
for
 
the
 
next
 
time
 
in
 
the
 
first
 
half
 
of
 
2025.
 
In
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
company’s
 
annual
 
management
 
cycle,
 
the
 
results
 
of
 
the
 
annual
 
review
 
of
 
the
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
(impacts,
 
risks
and
 
opportunities)
 
will
 
be
 
incorporated
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
risk
 
management
 
and
 
strategy
 
preparation
 
process.
 
Fingrid
will
 
also
 
update
 
its
 
sustainability
 
metrics
 
and
 
targets
 
for
 
2025.

At
 
Fingrid,
 
risk
 
management
 
is
 
planned
 
using
 
a
 
holistic
 
approach.
 
The
 
objective
 
is
 
to
 
comprehensively
 
identify,
 
assess
and
 
monitor
 
threats
 
and
 
risks
 
on
 
the
 
company’s
 
operations,
 
the
 
environment,
 
personnel
 
and
 
assets,
 
and
 
protect
them
 
against
 
such
 
threats
 
and
 
risks.
 
This
 
enterprise

(ERM)
 
includes
 
a
 
process
 
to
 
identify
 
and
 
assess
climate
 
-related
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
as
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
annual
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management
process.
 
This
 
covers
 
addressing
 
climate
 
risks
 
in
 
the
 
short
 
term
 
for
 
different
 
asset
 
classes
 
in
 
Finland’s
 
already
 
extreme
climate
 
conditions,
 
with
 
temperatures
 
varying
 
from
 
+40
 
to
 
-50°C,
 
for
 
example.
Based
 
on
 
a
 
GHG
 
inventory
 
covering
 
the
 
whole
 
value
 
chain,
 
its
 
previous
 
reporting
 
and
 
its
 
climate
 
engagement
 
work,
the
 
company
 
has
 
identified
 
the
 
sources
 
of
 
its
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
and
 
the
 
other
 
drivers
 
of
 
its
 
climate-related
 
impacts,
including
 
land
 
use.
 
The
 
company
 
is
 
aware
 
of

This
 
information
 
was
 
available
during
 
the
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
and
 
the
 
process
 
to
 
identify
 
and
 
assess
 
climate
 
risks.
With
 
the
 
support
 
of
 
an
 
external
 
expert,
 
work
 
was
 
performed
 
at
 
Fingrid
 
in
 
2024
 
to
 
develop
 
the
 
process
 
to
 
identify
 
and
assess
 
material
 
climate-related
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities.
 
The
 
overall
 
objective
 
of
 
the
 
work
 
was
 
to
 
develop
Fingrid’s
 
risk
 
assessment
 
through
 
the
 
incorporation
 
of
 
climate
 
scenarios
 
and
 
to
 
ensure
 
that
 
climate
 
risk
 
management
can
 
be
 
embedded
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
risk
 
management
 
in
 
the
 
manner
 
required
 
by
 
evolving
 
regulations.
Fingrid’s
 
current
 
risk
 
assessment
 
and
 
climate
 
risk
 
management,
 
best
 
practices
 
and
 
legal
 
requirements
 
(CSRD/ESRS
and
 
the
 
EU
 
taxonomy)
 
were
 
taken
 
into
 
account
 
in
 
the
 
structure,
 
key
 
elements
 
and
 
assumptions
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
climate
risk
 
assessment
 
methodology.
 
The
 
work
 
was
 
performed
 
using
 
the
 
TCFD’s
 
(Task
 
Force
 
on
 
Climate
 
-related
 
Financial
Disclosures)
 
approach,
 
with
 
the
 
participation
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
key
 
businesses
 
and
 
the
 
persons
 
responsible
 
for
 
risks.
Based
 
on
 
the
 
methodology
 
developed,
 
the
 
transition
 
risks
 
and
 
physical
 
risks
 
resulting
 
from
 
climate
 
change
 
and
 
their
impacts
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
the
 
risk
 
portfolio
 
and
 
the
 
development
 
of
 
risk
 
management
 
were
 
identified
 
and
 
validated.
 
For
physical
 
risks,
 
both
 
acute
 
and
 
chronic
 
climate
 
risks
 
were
 
considered.
 
Transition
 
risks
 
were
 
addressed
 
in
 
four
categories:
 
politics
 
and
 
legislation,
 
technology,
 
markets
 
and
 
reputation.
 
Physical
 
risks
 
were
 
reviewed
 
at
 
the
 
level
 
of
Fingrid’s
 
key
 
asset
 
classes:
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
substations,
 
reserve
 
power,
 
ICT
 
and
 
real
 
estate.
 
Transition
 
risks
 
were
reviewed
 
at
 
the
 
company
 
level.
 
The
 
key
 
steps
 
of
 
the
 
review
 
consisted
 
of
 
identifying
 
material
 
risks,
 
describing
 
the
risks
 
in
 
more
 
detail
 
and
 
assessing
 
the
 
likelihood
 
and
 
impacts
 
of
 
the
 
risks,
 
based
 
on
 
which
 
a
 
risk
 
rating
 
was
 
given
 
to
each
 
risk
 
identified
 
as
 
material.
 
The
 
work
 
resulted
 
in
 
an
 
operating
 
model
 
for
 
climate
 
risk
 
assessment,
 
which
 
is
repeated
 
every
 
year
 
and
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
materiality
 
and
 
likelihood,
 
and
 
in
 
which
 
an
 
estimated
 
financial
 
impact
 
is
 
also
determined
 
for
 
the
 
risks.
Applicable
 
climate
 
scenarios
 
(Intergovernmental
 
Panel
 
on
 
Climate
 
Change
 
IPCC
 
and
 
International
 
Energy
 
Agency
 
IEA)
aligned
 
with
 
the
 
latest
 
scientific
 
information
 
and
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
most
 
recent
 
research
 
data,
 
adapted
 
to
 
Finland’s
conditions,
 
were
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
work.
 
Fingrid
 
considers
 
that
 
the
 
scenarios
 
used
 
and
 
their
 
time
 
horizons
 
cover
 
its
plausible
 
risks
 
and
 
uncertainties,
 
and
 
they
 
have
 
not
 
been
 
identified
 
to
 
include
 
any
 
particular
 
restrictions
 
to
 
be
considered.
 
From
 
the
 
perspective
 
of
 
ensuring
 
the
 
compatibility
 
of
 
the
 
climate
 
scenarios,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
not
 
identified
any
 
critical
 
climate
 
-related
 
assumptions
 
to
 
be
 
presented
 
in
 
its
 
financial
 
statements.
 
In
 
the
 
risk
 
review,
 
one
 
input
 
data
was
 
a
 
regional
 
breakdown
 
but
 
the
 
differences
 
did
 
not
 
require
 
moving
 
away
 
from
 
a
 
nationwide
 
review.
The
 
development
 
of
 
physical
 
risks
 
was
 
assessed
 
in
 
a
 
scenario
 
where
 
the
 
efforts
 
to
 
limit
 
emissions
 
fail
 
and
 
the
 
impacts
of
 
climate
 
change
 
gain
 
momentum
 
and
 
become
 
more
 
extreme
 
(IPCC
 
high
 
emissions,
 
SSP5-8.5).
 
Physical
 
risks
 
were
reviewed
 
on
 
a
 
long
 
time
 
horizon
 
of
 
around
 
30–50
 
years,
 
which
 
corresponds
 
with
 
the
 
expected
 
life
 
cycle
 
of
 
key
 
assets
and
 
the

of
 
physical

due
 
to
 
the
 
long
 
lifetime
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
key

The

assessed
 
the

to
 
which
 
the

business
 
operations
 
may
 
be
 
exposed
and
 
are
 
sensitive
 
to
 
the

the

as

The

The

did
 
not

the

to
 
have
 
any
 
significant

that
 
are
 
not

The

were
 
used
 
as

parameters
 
in
 
the

of
the

The
 
work
 
resulted
 
in
 
a
 
climate
 
risk
 
assessment
 
methodology
 
suitable
 
for
 
Fingrid,
 
which
 
uses
 
climate
scenarios
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
latest
 
research
 
data
 
and
 
covers
 
both
 
transition
 
risks
 
and
 
physical
 
risks.
 
The
 
results
 
of
 
the
work
 
were
 
integrated
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management
 
process,
 
in
 
which
 
the
 
heads
 
of
 
business
 
are
responsible
 
for
 
the

in
 
their
 
areas
 
of

and
 
for
 
the

and
 
for

Risk
 
assessment
 
of
 
climate
 
-related
 
physical
 
risks
Fingrid
 
prepares
 
for
 
the
 
physical
 
risks
 
of
 
more
 
frequent
 
and
 
more
 
powerful
 
extreme
 
weather
 
phenomena
 
in
 
grid
construction
 
and
 
operations.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
critical
 
security
 
of
 
supply
 
aspect
 
of
 
its
 
operations,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
used
 
this
approach
 
for
 
a
 
long
 
time
 
already.
 
The
 
management
 
of
 
physical
 
climate
 
risks
 
has
 
long
 
been
 
integrated
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
processes,
 
taking
 
into
 
consideration
 
natural
 
weather
 
variations
 
and
 
the
 
already
 
experienced
 
impacts
 
of
 
climate
change.
 
The
 
contingency
 
measures
 
related
 
to
 
physical
 
climate
 
risks
 
have
 
focused
 
on
 
various
 
context
 
-specific
 
risks
 
as
part
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management
 
since
 
2023,
 
including,
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
EU
 
taxonomy,
temperature
 
-related,
 
wind-related,
 
water
 
-related
 
and
 
solid
 
mass-related
 
chronic
 
and
 
acute
 
risks.
 
The
 
physical
climate
 
risks
 
are
 
largely
 
hazards
 
already
 
identified
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
for
 
the
 
company’s
 
key
 
assets
 
and
 
business
 
activities.
These
 
are
 
primarily
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
rise
 
in
 
temperature
 
(heatwaves,
 
rise
 
in
 
heat
 
load),
 
changes
 
in
 
precipitation
patterns
 
(freezing
 
rain,
 
heavy
 
precipitation,
 
flood),
 
an
 
increase
 
in
 
the
 
likelihood
 
of
 
wildfires
 
and
 
changes
 
in
 
the
likelihood
 
of
 
storms
 
and
 
ground
 
frost.
 
Of
 
the
 
assets,
 
physical
 
risks
 
primarily
 
affect
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
substations
 
and
reserve
 
power.
Risk
 
assessment
 
of
 
climate
 
-related
 
transition
 
risks
When
 
reviewing
 
climate
 
risks
 
through
 
scenarios,
 
transition
 
risks
 
are
 
top
 
of
 
the
 
list
 
in
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
total
 
risk,
especially
 
as
 
a
 
systemic
 
risk
 
for
 
the
 
power
 
system.
 
Transition
 
risks
 
are
 
a
 
fairly
 
new
 
challenge
 
for
 
all
 
green
 
transition
actors,
 
and
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
many
 
ways
 
at
 
the
 
core
 
of
 
this
 
transition.
 
This
 
requires
 
proactive
 
and
 
continuous
 
monitoring
from
 
Fingrid,
 
because
 
many
 
transition
 
risks
 
still
 
involve
 
significant
 
uncertainties.
 
Transition
 
risks
 
are
 
a
 
material
sustainability
 
matter
 
for
 
the
 
company.
 
That
 
is
 
why
 
the
 
matter
 
is
 
addressed
 
already
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
disclosure
requirement
 
SBM-3
 
(Material
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
and
 
their
 
interaction
 
with
 
strategy
 
and
 
business
model).
Climate
 
change
 
transition
 
risks
 
consist
 
of
 
events
 
related
 
to
 
regulations
 
and
 
policies,
 
technological
 
development,
market
 
changes
 
and/or
 
reputation,
 
and
 
often
 
of
 
combinations
 
thereof.
 
The
 
risks
 
that
 
are
 
considered
 
critical
 
in
 
the
risk
 
assessment
 
included
 
many
 
of
 
the
 
system
 
level
 
challenges
 
faced
 
by
 
Finland’s
 
electricity
 
system,
 
especially
 
the
management
 
and
 
controllability
 
of
 
the
 
system
 
when
 
different
 
technologies
 
need
 
to
 
be
 
integrated
 
in
 
new
 
ways
 
to
maintain
 
the
 
balance
 
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption.
 
Simultaneously,
 
new
 
electricity
 
production
technologies
 
are
 
changing
 
the
 
system’s
 
operating
 
principles
 
and
 
increasing
 
the
 
risk
 
level
 
of
 
operation
 
as
 
the
renewable,
 
more
 
weather
 
-dependent
 
electricity
 
system
 
becomes
 
less
 
controllable.
 
The
 
impact
 
of
 
climate
 
policies
 
on
the
 
carbon
 
price
 
and
 
the
 
spill-over
 
effect
 
on
 
investment
 
costs
 
and
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
own
 
emission
 
reduction
 
measures
 
is
one
 
of
 
the
 
significant
 
transition
 
risks
 
with
 
a
 
cross
 
-cutting
 
dimension.
 
Together
 
with
 
this
 
development,
 
another
significant
 
risk
 
is
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
would
 
not
 
be
 
able
 
to
 
enable
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
in
 
Finland
 
in
 
an
 
adequate
 
manner.

activities
 
were
only
 
assessed
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
the
 
most
 
material
 
environmental

One
 
aspect
 
of
 
the

was
 
to
 
verify
 
that
 
Fingrid’s

contributing
 
significantly

does
 
not
 
significantly
 
harm
 
the

and
 
management
 
of
 
the

Global
 
Compact
 
initiative
 
and
 
defined
 
the
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
for
 
its
 
personnel
 
in
compliance
 
with
 
these
 
principles
 
and
 
the
 
UN’s
 
Guiding
 
Principles
 
on
 
Business
 
and
 
Human
 
Rights.
 
The
 
public
 
Code
 
of
Conduct
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
company’s
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
also
 
includes
 
Fingrid’s
 
human
 
rights
 
commitment
 
drawn
 
up
with
 
assistance
 
from
 
a
 
third-party
 
specialist.
 
Fingrid
 
requires
 
its
 
service
 
providers
 
and
 
suppliers
 
to
 
commit
 
to
 
the
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct,
 
which
 
covers
 
issues
 
such
 
as
 
business
 
practices,
 
human
 
rights,
 
labour
 
rights,
 
occupational
safety,
 
the
 
environment,
 
and
 
anti-corruption
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
United
 
Nations’
 
Global
 
Compact
 
initiative.
 
The
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
is
 
also
 
publicly
 
available
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
website.
 
As
 
early
 
as
 
2016,
 
Fingrid
 
started
 
to
 
further
sharpen
 
its
 
human
 
rights
 
focus
 
with
 
an
 
overall
 
assessment
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
UN’s
 
Guiding
 
Principles.
 
Since
then,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
annually
 
updated
 
its
 
human
 
rights
 
action
 
plan
 
drawn
 
up
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
assessment
 
and
reviewed
 
the
 
need
 
for
 
an
 
overall
 
update
 
of
 
the
 
assessment.
 
In
 
2023–2024,
 
the
 
human
 
rights
 
impact
 
and
 
risks
assessment
 
on
 
which
 
the
 
Human
 
Rights
 
Due
 
Diligence
 
(HRDD)
 
process
 
is
 
based
 
was
 
updated
 
with
 
support
 
from
 
third-
party
 
experts.
 
At
 
the
 
same
 
time,
 
the
 
human
 
rights
 
impact
 
assessment
 
(HRIA)
 
was
 
carried
 
out
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
entire
value
 
chain
 
to
 
assess
 
actual
 
or
 
potential
 
negative
 
human
 
rights
 
impacts.
 
The
 
human
 
rights
 
responsibility
 
of
 
the
subsidiaries
 
Finextra
 
and
 
Fingrid
 
Datahub
 
was
 
taken
 
into
 
consideration
 
in
 
the
 
assessment.
 
The
 
human
 
rights
assessment
 
focuses
 
on
 
ensuring
 
responsible
 
procurement,
 
because
 
the
 
company’s
 
business
 
model
 
is
 
based
 
on
combining
 
its
 
core
 
expertise
 
with
 
that
 
of
 
its
 
partners.
 
The
 
descriptions
 
of
 
other
 
areas
 
in
 
the
 
HRDD
 
process
 
were
 
also
edited
 
for
 
more
 
clarity
 
and
 
more
 
concrete
 
specifics
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations.
Anti-corruption
 
and
 
the
 
prohibition
 
to
 
offer
 
or
 
accept
 
an
 
undue
 
benefit,
 
including
 
anti-money
 
laundering,
 
anti-
extortion
 
and
 
anti-bribery,
 
are
 
included
 
in
 
the
 
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
and
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct,
 
which
obligate
 
the
 
entire
 
personnel,
 
with
 
various
 
practices
 
in
 
place
 
to
 
oversee
 
compliance
 
at
 
the
 
company
 
level.
 
The
 
Code
of
 
Conduct
 
also
 
prohibits
 
any
 
support
 
to
 
religious
 
or
 
political
 
activities
 
by
 
Fingrid.

The
 
risk
 
of
 
warping
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
culture
 
is
 
reported
annually
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors,
 
covering
 
any

Fingrid
 
complies
 
in
 
all
 
its
 
operations
 
with
 
the
 
principles
 
and
 
regulations
 
of
 
Finnish
 
and
 
EU
 
competition
 
law.
 
Each
person
 
working
 
at
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
the
 
duty
 
to
 
contribute
 
to
 
ensuring
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
complies
 
with
 
the
 
competition
legislation
 
in
 
force.
 
This
 
obligation
 
also
 
applies
 
to
 
the
 
company’s
 
customer
 
organisations.
 
Separate
 
public
 
guidelines
on
 
the
 
compliance
 
of
 
competition
 
law
 
are
 
in
 
place
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
advisory
 
committee,
 
other
 
committees
 
and
 
similar
working
 
groups.
 
Tendering
 
of
 
services
 
in
 
an
 
honest,
 
ethical,
 
professional,
 
market
 
-based
 
and
 
transparent
 
manner
 
is
included
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct.
 
As
 
regards
 
taxation,
 
Fingrid
 
honours
 
its
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
by
 
being
 
a
 
responsible
 
tax
 
payer
 
and
 
does
 
not
 
make
 
special
arrangements
 
to
 
minimise
 
taxes.
 
Fingrid
 
commits,
 
for
 
its
 
part,
 
to
 
prevent
 
the
 
grey
 
economy.
 
The
 
company
 
has
 
no
taxation
 
risk
 
strategy
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors,
 
because
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
not
 
identified
 
any
 
material
 
risks
related
 
to
 
taxation.
According
 
to
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
the
 
operations
 
in
 
2024,
 
a
 
substantial
 
proportion
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
is
 
both
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
and
 
taxonomy
 
-aligned
 
and
 
significantly
 
reduces
 
the
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
from
 
other
 
sectors.

operational
 
expenditure
 
was
 
EUR
 
3.1
 
million
 
(EUR

grid

costs
 
were
 
EUR

and
 
lease
 
expenses
 
were
 
EUR
 
1.3
 
million
 
(EUR
 
1.1
 
million).
 
The
increase
 
in
 
grid
 
maintenance
 
costs
 
was
 
mainly
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
repair
 
of
 
the
 
EstLink
 
2
 
cross
 
-border
 
transmission
 
cable,
which
 
sustained
 
damage
 
in
 
January.
Electricity
 
transmission
 
is
 
classified
 
as
 
a
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
sustainable
 
economic
 
activity,
 
which
 
has
 
technical
assessment
 
criteria
 
in
 
place
 
for
 
assessing
 
taxonomy
 
-alignment.
 
In
 
terms
 
of
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation,
 
the
transmission
 
of
 
electricity
 
has
 
been
 
defined
 
as
 
an
 
enabling
 
activity
 
with
 
which
 
other
 
sectors’
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
can
 
be
significantly
 
reduced.
Calculations
 
have
 
been
 
made
 
on
 
the
 
portions
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
that
 
are
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
and
 
meet
 
the
assessment
 
criteria
 
related
 
to
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation.
 
The
 
three
 
key
 
performance
 
indicators
 
(KPIs)
 
required
 
by
the
 
taxonomy
 
have
 
been
 
calculated:
 
turnover,
 
capital
 
expenditure
 
and
 
operational
 
expenditure.
 
The
 
starting
 
point
for
 
the
 
assessment
 
is
 
the
 
fact
 
that
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
has
 
been
 
classified
 
as
 
a
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
sustainable
economic
 
activity.
 
However,
 
the
 
peak
 
load
 
capacity
 
income
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
is
 
not
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
because
 
it
 
is
 
not
 
directly
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
transmission
 
and
 
use
 
of
 
electricity
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and,
 
according
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
interpretation,
 
there
 
are
 
no
 
other
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
activities
 
(in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
Taxonomy
 
Regulation)
 
that
could
 
be
 
applied
 
in
 
this
 
case.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
same
 
reason,
 
the
 
Datahub
 
income
 
and
 
the
 
guarantee
 
of
 
origin
 
certificate
service
 
are
 
also
 
not
 
classified
 
as
 
taxonomy
 
-eligible
 
even
 
though
 
they
 
have
 
a
 
positive
 
impact
 
on
 
climate
 
change
mitigation.
When
 
assessing
 
the
 
taxonomy
 
-alignment
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations,
 
an
 
essential
 
criterion
 
is
 
met
 
in
 
that
 
the
transmission
 
system
 
is
 
an
 
interconnected
 
European
 
system.
 
However,
 
a
 
Fingrid
 
operation
 
is
 
not
 
taxonomy
 
-aligned
 
if
it
 
includes
 
infrastructure
 
dedicated
 
to
 
creating
 
a
 
direct
 
connection
 
or
 
expanding
 
an
 
existing
 
direct
 
connection
between
 
a
 
substation
 
or
 
network
 
and
 
a
 
power
 
production
 
plant
 
that
 
is
 
more
 
GHG
 
intensive
 
than
 
100
 
g
 
CO
2
e/kWh
measured
 
on
 
a
 
life
 
cycle
 
basis.
 
Such
 
direct
 
connections
 
are
 
rare
 
and
 
are
 
excluded
 
from
 
the
 
calculations
 
of
 
taxonomy-
aligned
 
operations.
 
Fingrid’s
 
reserve
 
power
 
activities
 
are
 
also
 
excluded
 
from
 
the
 
calculations,
 
on
 
the
 
same
 
grounds.
The
 
intelligent
 
measurement
 
systems
 
in
 
use
 
at
 
Fingrid
 
have
 
been
 
verified
 
to
 
comply
 
with
 
the
 
criteria
 
set
 
in
 
the
Electricity
 
Directive.
In
 
the
 
taxonomy
 
-alignment
 
calculations,
 
the
 
proportion
 
of
 
the
 
equipment
 
containing
 
PCBs
 
has
 
been
 
deducted
 
from
the
 
power
 
and
 
instrument
 
transformer
 
groups.
 
The
 
production
 
and
 
import
 
of
 
PCBs
 
have
 
been
 
prohibited
 
in
 
Finland
since
 
1990.
 
The
 
detected
 
PCB
 
concentrations
 
have
 
generally
 
been
 
low.
 
The
 
lifetime
 
of
 
grid
 
equipment
 
is
 
often
 
long,
which
 
is
 
why
 
PCBs
 
have
 
been
 
detected
 
in
 
a
 
limited
 
part
 
of
 
old
 
equipment
 
when
 
sampling
 
oils
 
in
 
power
 
transformers
and
 
dismantling
 
oil-insulated
 
equipment.

From
 
a
 
sustainable
 
development
 
perspective,
 
the
 
most
 
impactful
 
aspect
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
climate
 
work
 
is
 
the
 
positive
impact
 
 
the
 
climate
 
benefit
 
 
created
 
by
 
the
 
company
 
through
 
its
 
business.
 
The
 
EU
 
taxonomy
 
also
 
defines
 
the
transmission
 
of
 
electricity
 
as
 
an
 
enabling
 
activity
 
with
 
which
 
other
 
sectors’
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
can
 
be
 
significantly
reduced.
 
By
 
making
 
grid
 
investments,
 
Fingrid
 
enables
 
the
 
reduction
 
of
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
in
 
Finland
 
through
electrification.
 
The
 
company’s
 
power
 
system
 
vision
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
achievement
 
of
 
Finland’s
 
climate
 
goals
 
and
 
the
low-carbon
 
roadmaps
 
of
 
different
 
industries.
 
When
 
Fingrid
 
implements
 
grid
 
investments
 
as
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
Board
of
 
Directors,
 
the
 
connection
 
of
 
renewable
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
becomes
 
possible
 
and
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
in
Finland
 
decrease.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
grid
 
investments,
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation
 
is
 
enabled
 
through
 
electricity
 
market
solutions
 
and
 
customer
 
flexibility.
 
Through
 
its
 
operations,
 
Fingrid
 
supports
 
society’s
 
transition
 
to
 
a
 
sustainable
economy
 
and
 
the
 
limiting
 
of
 
global
 
warming
 
and
 
acts
 
as
 
an
 
enabler
 
in
 
achieving
 
climate
 
goals,
 
and
 
therefore,
 
there
 
is
no
 
need
 
for
 
the
 
company

is
 
assessed
 
as
 
a
 
continuous

of
 
targets
 
and
 
measures
 
included
 
in
 
the
 
transition
 
plan
 
for
 
climate
 
change
mitigation
 
is
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
sustainability
 
reporting.
In
 
2024,
 
according
 
to
 
the
 
EU
 
taxonomy
 
review,
 
a
 
substantial
 
proportion
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
is
 
both
 
taxonomy-
eligible
 
and
 
taxonomy
 
-aligned
 
activity,
 
which
 
significantly
 
reduces
 
the
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
from
 
other
 
sectors.
 
The
 
same
applies
 
to
 
capital
 
and
 
operational
 
expenditure,
 
and
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
no
 
specific
 
targets
 
or
 
plans
 
to
 
adapt
 
its
operations
 
in
 
this
 
respect.
 
In
 
2024,
 
the
 
operational
 
expenditure
 
(OpEx)
 
allocated
 
to
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
transition
 
plan,
 
aligned
 
with
 
the
 
taxonomy’s
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation
 
criteria,
 
was
 
EUR
 
51
 
million.
 
The
 
capital
expenditure
 
(CapEx)
 
allocated
 
to
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
transition
 
plan,
 
aligned
 
with
 
the
 
taxonomy’s
 
climate
change
 
mitigation
 
criteria,
 
was
 
EUR
 
449
 
million.
 
The
 
amounts
 
above
 
are
 
also
 
significant
 
monetary
 
amounts
 
of
 
CapEx
and
 
OpEx
 
required
 
to
 
implement
 
the
 
actions
 
taken
 
or
 
planned.
 
The
 
taxonomy
 
reporting
 
in
 
its
 
entirety
 
is
 
addressed
 
in
a
 
separate
 
section
 
(EU
 
taxonomy).
The
 
grid
 
building
 
and
 
maintenance
 
work
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
also
 
leads
 
to
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
that
 
result
 
in
 
negative
 
climate
impacts.
 
The
 
company
 
aims
 
to
 
reduce
 
these
 
emissions
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
the
 
Paris
 
Agreement.
 
Direct
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
result
from
 
the
 
sulphur
 
hexafluoride
 
(SF6)
 
needed
 
as
 
an
 
insulating
 
gas
 
at
 
substations
 
and
 
the
 
light
 
fuel
 
oil
 
needed
 
at
reserve
 
power
 
plants.
 
Indirect
 
emissions
 
result
 
from
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
the
 
power
 
losses
 
in
 
electricity
transmission.
 
Material
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
are
 
also
 
generated
 
in
 
the
 
upstream
 
value
 
chain,
 
especially
 
from
 
the
 
building
materials
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
and
 
substation
 
investments.
 
The
 
locked-in
 
of
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
and
 
the
 
limited
 
range
 
of
 
decarbonisation
 
levers
 
are
 
currently
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
use
 
of
sulphur
 
hexafluoride
 
at
 
substations
 
and
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
light
 
fuel
 
oil
 
at
 
reserve
 
power
 
plants.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
also
 
decided
 
to
reduce
 
its
 
SF6
 
amount
 
as
 
the
 
equipment
 
reaches
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
its
 
service
 
life
 
and
 
new
 
technology
 
enables
 
new
solutions.
 
It
 
is
 
not
 
possible
 
to
 
switch
 
out
 
the
 
SF6
 
gas
 
without
 
modernising
 
the
 
equipment.

large
 
-scale
 
use
 
of
 
new

is
 
restricted
 
by
 
technical
 
requirements,
 
a
 
lack
 
of
 
technology
 
suitable
 
for
 
higher
voltage
 
levels
 
and
 
a
 
lack
 
of
 
practical
 
experience.
 
However,
 
the
 
SF6
 
emissions
 
are
 
not
 
estimated
 
to
 
compromise
 
the
achievement
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
current
 
and
 
future
 
GHG
 
emission
 
reduction
 
targets.
 
The
 
functionality
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
reserve

plants
 
is
 
key
 
in
 
implementing
 
the
 
company’s
 
system
 
responsibility
 
in
 
severe
 
disturbances.
 
Based
 
on
previous
 
studies,
 
it
 
has
 
not
 
been
 
possible
 
to
 
switch
 
over
 
to
 
renewable
 
fuels
 
at
 
the
 
plants.
The
 
company
 
has
 
not
 
set
 
GHG
 
emission
 
reduction
 
targets
 
that
 
would
 
be
 
science-based
 
and
 
compatible
 
with
 
limiting
global
 
warming
 
to
 
1.5°C.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
decided
 
to
 
set
 
a
 
science-based
 
GHG
 
emission
 
reduction
 
target
 
and
 
submit
 
it
to
 
the
 
Science
 
Based
 
Targets
 
initiative
 
(SBTi)
 
for
 
validation.
 
The
 
key
 
emission
 
reduction
 
measures
 
to
 
achieve
 
the
target
 
are
 
the
 
procurement
 
of
 
aluminium
 
conductors
 
produced
 
using
 
fossil
 
-fee
 
electricity
 
and
 
the
 
switch
 
over
 
to
renewable
 
diesel
 
in
 
reserve
 
power
 
production,
 
which
 
is
 
currently
 
being
 
looked
 
into.
 
The
 
reduction
 
of
 
Scope
 
3
 
emissions
 
in
 
the

is
 
addressed
 
in

requirement
 
E1-3
(Actions

The
 
most
 
effective
 
way
 
to
 
reduce
 
emissions
 
occurring
in
 
the
 
value

is
 
to
 
choose
 
low-emission

The
 
positive
 
impact
 
of
 
the
 
indirect
 
climate
 
benefit
 
created
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
through
 
its
 
business
 
operations
 
is
 
difficult
 
to
measure,
 
but
 
it
 
is
 
clear
 
that
 
this
 
systemic
 
climate
 
benefit
 
far
 
outweighs
 
the
 
negative
 
carbon
 
footprint
 
from
 
the
operations.
 
The
 
clean
 
energy
 
production
 
connected
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
offers
 
one
 
way
 
to
 
estimate
 
the
 
future
 
indirect
climate
 
benefits
 
enabled
 
by
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations.
 
In
 
2024,
 
a
 
total
 
of
 
1,509
 
megawatts
 
of
 
wind
 
power
 
and
 
91
megawatts
 
of
 
solar
 
power
 
was
 
connected
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
main
 
grid,
 
which
 
will
 
help
 
to
 
indirectly
 
avoid
 
annual
 
emissions
of
 
around
 
150,818
 
CO
2
 
equivalent
 
tonnes
 
in
 
the
 
coming
 
years.
 
During
 
the
 
year,
 
Fingrid
 
additionally
 
concluded
 
new
agreements
 
on
 
connecting
 
a
 
total
 
of
 
roughly
 
904
 
megawatts
 
of
 
wind
 
power
 
and
 
631
 
megawatts
 
of
 
solar
 
power
production
 
to
 
the
 
electricity
 
network.
 
Once
 
realised,
 
this
 
will
 
lead
 
to
 
a
 
substantial
 
positive
 
climate
 
impact,
 
indirectly
avoiding
 
annual
 
emissions
 
of
 
around
 
109,213
 
CO
2
 
equivalent
 
tonnes.
Fingrid
 
has
 
estimated
 
the
 
carbon
 
dioxide
 
emissions
 
from
 
Finland’s
 
power
 
system
 
in
 
real
 
time
 
since
 
2019.
 
The
calculation
 
formula
 
in
 
use
 
for
 
the
 
emission
 
factor
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
real-time
 
production,
 
import
 
and
 
export
 
data,
 
and
emission
 
factors
 
for
 
specific
 
types
 
of
 
production.
 
The
 
average
 
emission
 
factor
 
for
 
the
 
electricity
 
consumed
 
in
 
Finland
in
 
2024
 
was
 
33
 
g
 
CO
2
/kWh.
 
The
 
emission
 
factor
 
continued
 
to
 
decrease
 
from
 
the
 
previous
 
year,
 
indicating
 
positive
progress
 
in
 
achieving
 
Finland’s
 
climate
 
targets.
From
 
a
 
carbon
 
footprint
 
perspective,
 
Fingrid’s
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
totalled
 
around
 
249,021
 
CO
2
 
equivalent
 
tonnes
 
in
2024.
 
The
 
calculation
 
also
 
includes
 
the
 
indirect
 
emissions
 
from
 
procurement
 
and
 
supply
 
chains
 
(location-based
Scope
 
1,
 
2
 
and
 
3).
 
Total
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
grew
 
22
 
per
 
cent
 
compared
 
to
 
the
 
previous
 
year,
 
mainly
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
higher
number
 
of
 
commissioned
 
transmission
 
lines.
The
 
building
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
required
 
by
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
increases
 
the
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
from
 
the
 
company’s
operations.
 
The
 
emissions
 
from
 
construction
 
are
 
highly
 
dependent
 
on
 
the
 
number
 
of

More
 
than
 
70
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
GHG
 
emissions
 
were
 
generated
 
in
 
the
 
upstream
 
value
 
chain
(Scope
 
3).
 
Transmission
 
line
 
and
 
substation
 
investments
 
caused
 
the
 
majority
 
of
 
the
 
value
 
chain’s
 
emissions
 
and
represented
 
around
 
36
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
the
 
total
 
emissions
 
(Scope
 
1,
 
2
 
and

The
 
company
 
currently
 
has
 
a
 
EUR
 
4
 
billion
 
investment
 
programme
 
under
 
way
 
for
 
the
 
next
 
ten
 
years.
 
With
 
this
programme,
 
the
 
company
 
contributes
 
to
 
enabling
 
the
 
connection
 
of
 
clean
 
electricity,
 
produced
 
using,
 
for
 
example,
wind
 
or
 
solar
 
power,
 
to
 
the
 
electricity
 
network.
 
It
 
is
 
not
 
possible
 
for
 
the
 
company
 
to
 
specify
 
time
 
horizons,
 
estimated
results
 
or
 
significant
 
costs
 
for
 
each
 
measure.
 
The
 
company’s
 
significant
 
actual
 
expenditures
 
related
 
to
 
the
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
transition
 
plan
 
for
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation
 
are
 
described
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
disclosure
requirement
 
E1-1.
 
In
 
2024,
 
some
 
EUR
 
500
 
million
 
were
 
invested
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid.
 
Around
 
331
 
kilometres
 
of
 
new
 
grid
transmission
 
lines
 
and
 
25
 
new
 
or
 
expanded
 
substations
 
were
 
deployed.
 
In
 
reducing
 
the
 
upstream
 
value
 
chain’s
 
GHG
emissions
 
(Scope
 
3),
 
the
 
key
 
measure
 
was
 
the
 
procurement
 
of
 
low-emission
 
aluminium
 
for
 
the
 
conductors
 
needed
for
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects.
 
Fingrid
 
buys
 
them
 
directly
 
from
 
the
 
conductor
 
manufactures.
 
In
 
2024,
 
low-
emission
 
aluminium
 
was
 
set
 
as
 
one
 
of
 
the
 
criteria
 
in
 
the
 
tendering
 
of
 
conductors.
 
As
 
a
 
result,

of
 
low-emission
 
aluminium
 
conductors
 
extending
 
until
 
2027
 
were
 
concluded.
 
The
 
new
 
agreements
 
cover
 
the
entire
 
conductor
 
procurement
 
volume.
 
In
 
addition,
 
low-emission
 
recycled
 
steel
 
structures
 
were
 
tested
 
at
 
three
 
new
substations.
 
Their
 
procurement
 
was
 
the
 
responsibility
 
of
 
the
 
substation
 
supplier.
A
 
considerable
 
proportion,
 
20
 
per
 
cent,
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
carbon
 
footprint
 
consists
 
of
 
emissions
 
(scope
 
2)
 
from
 
the
production
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
acquired
 
from
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
 
to
 
replace
 
power
 
losses
 
taking
 
place
 
during
electricity
 
transmission.
 
The
 
key
 
means
 
of
 
reducing
 
the
 
carbon
 
dioxide
 
emissions
 
caused
 
by
 
transmission
 
losses
 
is
 
to
build
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
to
 
accommodate
 
new
 
clean
 
electricity
 
production.
 
This
 
will
 
also
 
reduce
 
the
 
carbon
 
footprint
 
from
energy
 
lost
 
during
 
grid
 
transmission.
 
The
 
greenh
 
ouse
 
gas
 
emissions
 
due
 
to
 
transmission
 
losses
 
were
 
49,605
 
CO
2
equivalent
 
tonnes
 
in
 
2024.
The
 
measures
 
carried
 
out
 
in
 
2024
 
to
 
improve
 
the
 
energy
 
efficiency
 
of
 
substations
 
and
 
reserve
 
power
 
plants
 
saved
43,904
 
megawatt
 
hours
 
of
 
electricity
 
or
 
heat
 
(Scope
 
2).
 
Within
 
the
 
Finnish
 
industries’
 
energy
 
efficiency
 
agreement
period
 
2017–2025,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
saved
 
a
 
total
 
of
 
roughly
 
226,539
 
megawatt
 
hours.
 
The
 
company
 
achieved
 
the
 
12.9
 
per
cent
 
savings
 
target
 
set
 
for
 
the
 
agreement
 
period
 
already
 
in
 
2022.
From
 
the
 
perspective
 
of
 
reducing
 
own
 
direct
 
emissions,
 
the
 
switch
 
-over
 
to
 
renewable
 
diesel
 
was
 
looked
 
into
 
at
reserve
 
power
 
plants.
 
At
 
substations,
 
Fingrid
 
continued
 
work
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
growth
 
of
 
SF6
 
gas
 
volumes
 
by
 
focusing
on
 
SF6-free
 
gas
 
-insulated
 
switchgears.
 
SF6-free
 
technology
 
is
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
new
 
110-kilovolt
 
gas
 
-insulated
 
projects
always
 
when
 
technically
 
possible
 
using
 
commercially
 
available
 
products.
 
At
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
had
 
roughly
 
60
tonnes
 
of
 
SF6
 
gas
 
at
 
its
 
substations.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid’s
 
SF6
 
gas
 
emissions
 
totalled
 
some
 
1,796
 
CO
2
 
equivalent
 
tonnes.
This
 
means
 
a
 
gas
 
volume
 
of
 
around
 
71
 
kilograms
 
and
 
a
 
leakage
 
rate
 
of
 
0.12
 
per
 
cent.
 
The
 
long-term
 
annual
 
leakage
rate
 
has
 
been
 
very
 
low,
 
less
 
than
 
0.2
 
per
 
cent
 
on
 
average,
 
which
 
is
 
among
 
the
 
top
 
results
 
in

The

is
 
collected
 
from
 
Fingrid’s

system.
 
The
 
emission

is
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
EU
Emissions
 
Trading
 
System’s
 
information,
 
the

the

emissions
 
are
 
calculated
 
using
 
both
 
the
 
location-based
 
and
 
the

method.
 
For
 
electricity,
the

uses
 
the

electricity
 
consumed
 
calculated
 
by
 
Fingrid.
 
In

Fingrid
 
discarded
 
the
 
arithmetic
 
mean
 
and
 
instead
 
adopted
 
a
 
volume-weighted
 
annual
 
average
 
in
 
its
 
annual
reporting.
 
This
 
more
 
accurately
 
reflects
 
the
 
average
 
emissions
 
level
 
because
 
the
 
electricity
 
production
 
with
 
a
 
higher
emission
 
intensity
 
takes
 
place
 
during
 
periods
 
with
 
higher
 
electricity
 
consumption.
 
The
 
calculation
 
of
 
the
 
emissions
from
 
loss
 
power
 
uses
 
a
 
more
 
precise
 
method,
 
in
 
which
 
the
 
amount
 
of
 
losses
 
and
 
the
 
level
 
of
 
the
 
emission
 
factor
 
are
determined
 
hourly.
 
The
 
emission
 
factor
 
used
 
for

In
 
2023,
 
Fingrid
 
implemented
 
a
 
GHG
 
calculation
 
development
 
project,
 
in
 
which
 
all
 
15
 
Scope

categories
 
were
reviewed
 
and
 
eight
 
categories
 
were
 
identified
 
to
 
be
 
material
 
for
 
Fingrid.
 
The
 
categories
 
included
 
in
 
the
 
calculation
are
 
listed
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
disclosure
 
requirement
 
E1-6.
 
The
 
omitted
 
categories
 
were
 
identified
 
as
 
non-material
based
 
on
 
either
 
the
 
absence
 
of
 
the
 
activity
 
in
 
question
 
or
 
the
 
low
 
level
 
of
 
emissions.
 
Scope
 
3
 
emissions
 
are
calculated
 
in
 
CO
2
 
equivalent
 
tonnes.
 
The
 
operational
 
data
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
calculation
 
is
 
mainly
 
obtained
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
internal
 
systems.
 
For
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
the
 
calculation
 
includes
 
the
 
projects
 
developed
 
by
 
Fingrid,
 
but
 
not
purchased
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
which
 
account
 
for
 
a
 
minor
 
proportion
 
of
 
the
 
total.
 
Key
 
source
 
systems
 
include
 
the
asset
 
management

system,
 
the
 
type

of
 
the
 
transmission

structures,
 
the

(auxiliary

HR
 
systems
 
and
 
financial
 
systems
 
(monetary
 
amounts
 
of
 
purchased
 
products
and
 
services,
 
project
 
finance
 
reporting).
 
Other
 
sources
 
used
 
include
 
the
 
emission
 
data
 
provided
 
by
 
leased
 
reserve
power
 
plants
 
and
 
the
 
travel
 
agency,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
emission
 
reporting
 
of
 
the
 
waste
 
management
 
service
 
provider.
The
 
emission
 
factors
 
used
 
in
 
the
 
calculation
 
are
 
mainly
 
from
 
national
 
and
 
global
 
databases,
 
such
 
as
 
ecoinvent
 
3.8,
EXIOBASE
 
3.8.2,
 
DEFRA’s
 
GHG
 
conversion
 
factors
 
(full
 
set
 
2022),
 
Statistics
 
Finland
 
and
 
the
 
national
 
Emissions
database
 
for
 
construction.
 
In
 
addition,
 
Environmental
 
Product
 
Declaration
 
data
 
provided
 
by
 
equipment
 
suppliers
 
has
been
 
used
 
for
 
substation
 
equipment
 
and
 
generalised
 
to
 
cover
 
other
 
equipment
 
in
 
the
 
same
 
equipment
 
group.
 
GHG
 
gas
 
intensity
 
calculation
 
includes
 
the
 
company’s
 
turnover
 
in
 
its
 
entirety,
 
and
 
the
 
intensity
 
is
 
determined
 
for
both
 
location-based
 
and
 
market
 
-based
 
emissions.
Calculation
 
of
 
Scope
 
1
 
and
 
2
 
emissions
 
in
 
their
 
entirety
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
primary
 
data.
 
For
 
Scope
 
3
 
emissions,
 
the
 
emission
sources
 
that
 
have
 
been
 
calculated
 
using
 
physical
 
operational
 
data
 
collected
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
 
systems
 
and
 
not,
 
for
example,
 
a
 
cost
 
-based
 
method,
 
have
 
been
 
defined
 
as
 
being
 
based
 
on
 
primary
 
data.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
Scope
 
3
emission
 
sources
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
primary
 
data.
Because
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
so
 
far
 
not
 
set
 
a
 
science-based
 
emission
 
reduction
 
target
 
and
 
a
 
related
 
base
 
year,
 
Fingrid
 
does
not
 
report
 
the
achieved
 
or
 
anticipated
 
Scope
 
1-3
 
GHG
 
emission
 
reductions
for
 
2024.
 
However,
 
Fingrid
 
reports
 
the
indirect
 
climate
 
benefit
 
created
 
when
 
clean
 
wind
 
and
 
solar
 
power
 
production
 
is
 
connected
 
to
 
the
 
main
 
grid.
The
achieved
 
indirect
 
climate
 
benefit
 
is

are
 
considered
 
when
 
assessing
 
the
 
environmental

and
 
business
 
model
The
 
material
 
impacts
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
business
 
on
 
nature
 
are
 
linked
 
to
 
the
 
company’s
 
statutory
 
responsibility
 
for
 
the
power
 
system’s
 
reliability
 
and
 
the
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
main
 
grid.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
maintaining
 
the
 
current
 
grid
infrastructure,
 
the
 
operations
 
involve
 
building
 
new
 
transmission
 
lines
 
and
 
substations,
 
which
 
leads
 
to
 
land-use
change
 
and
 
negative
 
impacts
 
on
 
biodiversity.
 
This
 
challenges
 
the
 
compatibility
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
business
 
and
strategy
 
with
 
the
 
national
 
and
 
global
 
targets
 
related
 
to
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems.
 
The
 
business’s
 
resilience
 
in
relation
 
to
 
biodiversity
 
has
 
been
 
analysed
 
considering
 
own
 
operations
 
and
 
the
 
material
 
parts
 
of
 
the
 
value
 
chain,
 
but
no
 
actual
 
scenario
 
or
 
resilience
 
analysis
 
has
 
been
 
performed.
 
Since
 
grid
 
building
 
and
 
maintenance
 
have
 
a
 
negative
impact
 
on
 
biodiversity,
 
transition
 
risks
 
may
 
arise
 
from
 
increasing
 
or
 
tightening
 
biodiversity
 
regulations
 
and
potentially
 
also
 
from
 
the
 
accumulation
 
of
 
these
 
impacts,
 
transforming
 
them
 
into
 
systemic
 
risks.
The
 
ongoing
 
green
 
transition
 
underscores
 
the
 
overall
 
understanding
 
of
 
not
 
only
 
the
 
links
 
between
 
nature
conservation
 
and
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation,
 
but
 
also
 
their
 
social
 
consequences
 
and
 
a
 
just
 
transition.
 
Engagement
 
of
landowners,
 
close
 
neighbours
 
of
 
transmission
 
lines
 
and
 
other
 
stakeholders,
 
including
 
if
 
required
 
Indigenous
 
peoples,
takes
 
place
 
continuously,
 
especially
 
in
 
the
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessments
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects,
 
which
the
 
company
 
regularly
 
has
 
underway.
 
Fingrid
 
continuously
 
works
 
to
 
align
 
its
 
strategy
 
and
 
business
 
model
 
with
 
the
 
national
 
and
 
global
 
targets
 
related
 
to
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems.
 
While
 
regulations
 
to
 
protect
 
biodiversity
 
increase,
 
Fingrid
 
must
 
be
 
able
 
to
 
fulfil
 
its
statutory
 
tasks
 
also
 
in
 
the
 
future.
 
Securing
 
the
 
conditions
 
for
 
grid
 
building
 
and
 
maintenance
 
is
 
necessary
 
for
 
both
 
the

The
 
company’s
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy,
 
which
 
is
 
described
 
in
 
disclosure
 
requirement
 
E4-2
 
(Policies
related
 
to
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems)
 
and
 
which
 
was
 
updated
 
in
 
2024
 
to
 
reflect
 
the
 
requirements
 
of
 
sustainability
reporting
 
and
 
ESRS
 
standards,
 
among
 
other
 
things,
 
serves
 
as
 
a
 
transition
 
plan
 
related
 
to
 
biodiversity.
 
From
 
the
perspective
 
of
 
the
 
nature-related
 
impacts
 
of
 
grid
 
building,
 
the
 
key
 
is
 
to
 
minimise
 
land-use
 
change.
 
Grid
 
investments
are
 
always
 
only
 
implemented
 
to
 
meet
 
the
 
needs
 
of
 
society
 
and
 
clients.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
new
 
investments,
 
the
 
company
aims
 
to
 
increase
 
the
 
utilisation
 
rate
 
of
 
the
 
existing
 
grid
 
and
 
adopt
 
solutions
 
that
 
will
 
increase
 
the
 
transmission
capacity.
 
In
 
investments
 
and
 
maintenance,
 
nature-related
 
impacts
 
are
 
avoided
 
and
 
mitigated
 
in
 
many
 
ways
 
in
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
mitigation
 
hierarchy,
 
as
 
described
 
in
 
the
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy.
 
Fingrid
 
tracks
 
the
development
 
of
 
the
 
offset
 
practices
 
for
 
ecological
 
compensation
 
and
 
impairment
 
of
 
nature-related
 
values
 
and
assesses
 
the
 
need
 
for
 
them
 
and
 
their
 
suitability
 
for
 
its
 
business.
E4-2
 
Policies
 
related
 
to
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems
A
 
key
 
principle
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
impacts
 
on
 
biodiversity
 
and
 
ecosystems
 
is
 
Fingrid’s
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy,
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
which
 
the
 
company
 
reduces
 
its
 
negative
 
impacts
 
on
 
the
 
climate
 
and
 
the
 
environment
 
in
 
the
ongoing
 
green
 
transition.
 
This
 
policy,
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
President
 
&
 
CEO,
 
focuses
 
on
 
climat
 
e
 
change
 
and
 
land-use
change
 
as
 
drivers
 
and
 
covers
 
the
 
lifetime
 
of
 
all
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
assets.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
the
 
protection
 
of
 
biodiversity
and
 
ecosystems,
 
the
 
policy
 
covers
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
sustainable
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
for
 
addressing
 
deforestation.
 
The
 
policy
enshrines
 
the
 
environmental
 
precautionary
 
principle,
 
which
 
is
 
included
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
and
 
the
 
UN’s
Global
 
Compact
 
initiative,
 
which
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
committed
 
to.
In
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy,
 
the
 
mitigation
 
of
 
environmental
 
impacts
 
begins
 
from
 
the
preliminary
 
planning
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
routes,
 
when
 
solutions
 
are
 
sought
 
to
 
avoid
 
the
 
immediate
 
vicinity
 
of
residential
 
areas,
 
protected
 
sites
 
and
 
sites
 
that
 
have
 
been
 
identified
 
as
 
biodiversity-sensitive.
 
Route
 
planning
explores
 
possibilities
 
to
 
reduce
 
environmental
 
impacts
 
by
 
using
 
already
 
changed
 
areas,
 
such
 
as
 
fields,
 
instead
 
of
forests.
 
However,
 
the
 
planning
 
avoids
 
any
 
unnecessary
 
lengthening
 
of
 
a
 
transmission
 
line
 
route
 
that
 
would
 
in
principle
 
increase
 
land-use
 
change,
 
thus
 
leading
 
to
 
higher
 
negative
 
overall
 
impacts
 
on
 
nature
 
and
 
people.
 
From
 
the
perspective
 
of
 
social
 
consequences,
 
the
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy
 
also
 
addresses
 
the
 
consideration
 
of
landowners
 
and
 
other
 
concerned
 
parties
 
in
 
the
 
grid’s
 
lifetime.
 
Fingrid
 
does
 
not
 
have
 
production
 
that
 
generates
 
impacts
 
on
 
nature.
 
The
 
land
 
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy
 
also
 
does
not
 
specifically
 
address
 
the
 
impacts
 
on
 
nature
 
from
 
the
 
upstream
 
value
 
chain
 
(procurement),
 
because
 
they
 
have
 
not
been
 
identified
 
as

for
 
the

possibilities
 
have
been
 
identified
 
through
 
an

In
 
the
 
general
 
planning
 
phase
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects,
 
impacts
 
are
 
mitigated
 
through
 
the
 
location
 
of
 
towers.
Construction
 
is
 
preferably
 
scheduled
 
in
 
winter
 
to
 
leverage
 
the
 
protective
 
effect
 
of
 
frozen
 
soil
 
and
 
snow
 
cover,
 
which
makes
 
the
 
construction
 
work
 
easier
 
and
 
reduces
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
ground.
 
The
 
risk
 
of
 
birds
 
colliding
 
with
 
transmission
lines
 
is
 
reduced
 
by
 
installing
 
diverters
 
at
 
valuable
 
birdlife
 
areas
 
and,
 
if
 
necessary,
 
disturbances
 
can
 
be
 
avoided
 
by
limiting
 
construction
 
or
 
maintenance
 
work
 
during
 
the
 
breeding
 
season.
 
The
 
site
 
-specific
 
environmental
 
guidelines
ensure
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
mitigation
 
measures
 
throughout
 
the
 
entire
 
lifetime.
The
 
nature
 
sites
 
to
 
be
 
considered
 
during
 
work
 
have
 
also
 
been
 
assessed
 
for
 
the
 
maintenance
 
of
 
and
 
vegetation
management
 
at
 
existing
 
transmission
 
lines
 
carried
 
out
 
in
 
the
 
reporting
 
year.
 
A
 
compensation
 
policy
 
has
 
been
 
used
for
 
the
 
clearing
 
of
 
trees
 
at
 
the
 
border
 
zones
 
during
 
transmission
 
line
 
maintenance,
 
aimed
 
at
 
increasing
 
decaying
wood
 
valuable
 
for
 
biodiversity.
 
The
 
landowners
 
will
 
in
 
the
 
future
 
receive
 
financial
 
compensation
 
from
 
Fingrid
 
if
 
they
are
 
willing
 
to
 
leave
 
two-to
 
-four
 
-metre
 
-high
 
tree
 
stumps
 
on
 
their
 
property
 
to
 
increase
 
decaying
 
wood.
Grid
 
building
 
and
 
maintenance
 
is
 
outsourced
 
to
 
contractors
 
and
 
service
 
providers.
 
Fingrid

As
 
part
 
of
 
its
 
operating
 
model,
 
Fingrid
 
therefore
 
actively
encourages
 
landowners
 
to
 
make
 
safe
 
use
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
for
 
the
 
benefit
 
of
 
people
 
and
 
nature.
Transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
are
 
kept
 
open
 
by
 
regular
 
selective
 
clearing,
 
which
 
can
 
replace
 
the
 
habitats
 
of
 
species
threatened
 
by
 
disappearing
 
meadows
 
or
 
drained
 
peatlands.
 
The
 
selective
 
clearing
 
method
 
means
 
that
 
junipers
 
and
short
 
scrubs
 
are
 
left
 
standing,
 
taking
 
into
 
account
 
the
 
safety
 
distances
 
to
 
live
 
conductors
 
and
 
clearing
 
cycles.
 
In
connection
 
with
 
the
 
EIA
 
procedure,
 
potential
 
rural
 
biotopes
 
are
 
identified
 
with
 
the
 
objective
 
to
 
encourage
landowners
 
to
 
maintain
 
and
 
protect
 
the
 
scenic
 
and
 
nature
 
values
 
of
 
transmission
 
line
 
areas.
 
Fingrid
 
offers
 
financial
support
 
for
 
the
 
maintenance
 
of
 
traditional
 
rural
 
biotopes
 
located
 
in
 
transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
by
 
means
 
of
 
initial
funding
 
and
 
by
 
drawing
 
up
 
a
 
maintenance
 
plan.
 
Overall,
 
the
 
company
 
offers
 
information
 
on
 
utilising
 
transmission
line
 
areas
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
guidelines
 
for
 
land
 
planners
 
and
 
idea
 
cards
 
intended
 
for
 
landowners.
The
 
extensive
 
grid
 
investment
 
programme
 
enabling
 
the
 
green
 
transition
 
is
 
directly
 
reflected
 
in
 
the
 
number
 
of
necessary
 
statutory
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessments
 
and
 
other
 
actions
 
for
 
promoting
 
biodiversity
 
described
above.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
had
 
several
 
grid
 
projects
 
in
 
the
 
planning
 
phase
 
and
 
several
 
EIAs
 
underway:
 
Anttila-Länsisalmi,
Hausjärvi-Anttila,
 
Hikiä-Inkoo,
 
Juurikkaperä
 
-Toivila,
 
Kristiinankaupunki
 
-Nokia,
 
reinforcement
 
of
 
the
 
Forest
 
Line
 
and
Nuojuankangas
 
-Seitenoikea.
 
The
 
EIA
 
procedure
 
is
 
an
 
important
 
planning
 
tool
 
for
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
find
 
the
 
environmentally
best
 
transmission
 
line
 
routes
 
in
 
cooperation
 
with
 
landowners,
 
authorities
 
and
 
other
 
stakeholders.

The
 
work
 
identified
 
potential
 
sites
 
for
 
piloting
 
the
 
shorter
 
clearing
 
cycle.
In
 
the
 
reporting
 
year,
 
the
 
company
 
did
 
not
 
use
 
biodiversity

A
 
green
 
corridor
 
was
 
planned
 
as
 
a
 
new
 
mitigation
measure
 
for

The
 
green

secures
 
especially
 
the
 
protection
 
of
 
flying

a
threatened
 
species,

related
 
to
 
the

impacts,
 
whose
 
metrics
 
and
 
outcomes
 
are
 
presented
 
in
 
the
 
table
 
below.
 
Concerning
 
these
 
targets
 
set
 
prior
to
 
the
 
publication
 
of
 
the
 
ESRS
 
reporting
 
standards
 
and

When
 
setting
 
the
targets,
 
the

did
 
not
 
use
 
any

but
 
the

can
 
be
 
considered
 
to
 
meet
 
these
 
expectations
concerning
 
the
 
mitigation
 
of

loss.
 
From
 
the
 
perspective
 
of

hierarchy,
 
the
 
target
 
of
 
the

to
 
promote
 
biodiversity
 
is
 
related
 
to
 
the

minimisation
of
 
the
 
adverse
 
effects
 
from
 
land-use

resulting
 
from

towers,
 
is
 
lightweight
 
and
 
material-efficient.
 
The
 
use
 
of
 
secondary
 
materials
 
can
 
also
 
be
limited
 
by
 
availability,
 
especially
 
when
 
it
 
comes
 
to
 
steel.
 
Fingrid
 
works
 
together
 
with
 
its
 
contractors
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
consumption
 
of
 
primary
 
natural
 
resources
 
needed
 
for
 
grid
 
building.
 
Contractors
 
are
 
encouraged
 
through
 
contract
terms,
 
for
 
example,
 
to
 
favour
 
recycled
 
materials
 
instead
 
of
 
primary
 
materials,
 
where
 
possible.
As
 
a
 
client,
 
Fingrid
 
requires
 
through
 
contract
 
terms
 
that
 
its
 
contractual
 
partners
 
follow
 
the
 
waste
 
hierarchy
 
and
 
the
waste
 
management
 
prioritisation
 
such
 
that
 
the
 
primary
 
means
 
is
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
volume
 
of
 
waste
 
generated.
 
As
required
 
in
 
the
 
waste
 
specification
 
documentation,
 
materials
 
to
 
be
 
decommissioned
 
and
 
waste
 
are
 
recycled
efficiently
 
when
 
building
 
new
 
grid
 
sections
 
or
 
dismantling
 
old
 
structures.

Actions
 
and
 
resources
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
resource
 
use
 
and
 
circular
 
economy
Based
 
on
 
volumes,
 
the
 
key
 
materials
 
needed
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
grid
 
investments
 
to
 
promote
 
climate
 
change
 
mitigation
 
are
steel,
 
aluminium,
 
copper
 
and
 
concrete.
 
In
 
2024,
 
the
 
company
 
acquired
 
for
 
the
 
first
 
time
 
steel
 
structures
 
made
 
from
recycled
 
steel
 
for
 
three
 
new
 
substations.
 
Based
 
on
 
the
 
experiences
 
gained
 
from
 
this
 
test
 
project
 
concerning
 
the
availability
 
and
 
cost
 
and
 
climate
 
impacts
 
of
 
the
 
materials,
 
Fingrid
 
will
 
assess
 
potential
 
further
 
measures
 
to
 
use
recycled
 
steel
 
on
 
a
 
broader
 
scale
 
in
 
grid
 
building.
 
Generally,
 
roughly
 
a
 
fifth
 
of
 
the
 
globally
 
manufactured
 
steel
 
is
based
 
on
 
the
 
reuse
 
of
 
recycled
 
steel,
 
which
 
reduces
 
the
 
need
 
for
 
primary
 
raw
 
materials.
 
However,
 
the
 
material
 
for
the
 
workshop
 
that
 
currently
 
manufactures
 
transmission
 
towers
 
typically
 
comes
 
from
 
wholesalers
 
without
 
detailed
information
 
or
 
specifications
 
concerning
 
the
 
proportion
 
of
 
recycled
 
material.

materials
 
includes
 
the
 
substation
 
and

line
 
assets
 
commissioned
 
in
 
the
reporting

The
 
quantity
 
of
 
commissioned
 
assets
 
is
 
obtained
 
directly
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
 
asset
 
management
 
system.
The

are
 
grouped
 
by

which,
 
for
 
transmission

estimated
based
 
on
 
the

and
 
110
 
kilovolts.
The
 
quantity
 
of

has
 
been
 
calculated
 
by
 
multiplying
 
the

From
 
the
 
perspective

i.e.
 
personnel
 
and
 
temporary
 
workers
 
who
 
mainly
 
work
 
under
 
Fingrid’s

the
 
most
 
significant
 
negative

when
 
it
 
comes
 
to
 
life
 
and
 
health
are
 
related
 
to,
 
for

due
 
to
the
 
energy
 
transformation

caused
 
by

thus
 
leading
 
to
 
higher

for
 
employees’
 
health.
 
When
 
Fingrid’s
 
own

actions
 
succeed,
 
their
 
identified
 
impact
 
on
occupational
 
well-being

for
 
the

Engagement
with
 
own

takes
 
place
 
in

i.e.
 
the
 
cooperation

Personnel’s
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
 
come
 
first
 
in
 
all
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
activities.
 
In
 
an
 
expert
 
organisation,
 
the
hazards
 
of
 
work
 
are
 
not
 
limited
 
to
 
the
 
physical
 
aspects
 
of
 
working,
 
but
 
work
 
can
 
also
 
cause
 
a
 
mental
 
load.
 
Fingrid’s
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
 
management
 
is
 
steered
 
by
 
Fingrid’s
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
 
policy
 
and
 
goals.
The
 
company
 
has
 
in
 
place
 
an
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
 
management
 
system
 
based
 
on
 
ISO
 
45001,
 
which
 
is

manual,
 
which
 
is
 
the
 
responsibility
 
of
 
the
 
President

It
 
is
 
important
 
for
 
the
 
company
 
that
each

S1-2
 
Processes
 
for
 
engaging
 
with
 
own
 
workforce
 
and
 
workers’
 
representatives
 
about
 
impacts
The
 
statutory
 
cooperation
 
bodies
 
are
 
the
 
cooperation
 
and
 
dialogue
 
meeting
 
and
 
the
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
committee.
 
The
 
cooperation
 
and
 
dialogue
 
meeting
 
discusses
 
personnel
 
issues
 
extensively.
 
Statutory
 
OHS
 
matters
 
are
handled
 
by
 
the
 
company’s
 
OHS
 
committee,
 
which
 
includes
 
elected
 
personnel
 
representatives.
 
The
 
employer’s
representative
 
in
 
the
 
OHS
 
committee
 
is
 
the
 
OHS
 
Manager
 
appointed
 
by
 
the
 
company.
Each
 
year,
 
the
 
cooperation
 
and
 
dialogue
 
meeting
 
reviews
 
matters
 
required
 
by
 
the
 
Co-operation
 
Act,
 
such
 
as
 
key
figures
 
related
 
to
 
personnel’s
 
occupational
 
well
 
-being
 
and
 
health,
 
the
 
results
 
of
 
the
 
personnel
 
survey
 
and
 
the
 
equal
opportunity
 
and
 
non-discrimination
 
plan.
 
The
 
cooperation
 
and
 
dialogue
 
meeting,
 
which
 
convenes
 
four
 
times
 
a
 
year,
is
 
comprised
 
of
 
the
 
shop
 
stewards
 
of
 
salaried
 
employees
 
and
 
senior
 
salaried
 
employees,
 
the
 
HR
 
manager
 
and
 
the
 
HR
director.
 
Cooperation
 
with
 
the
 
shop
 
stewards
 
has
 
been
 
constructive,
 
as
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
concluded
 
local
agreements
 
related
 
to
 
working
 
time,
 
remote
 
work
 
and
 
travel
 
allowances.
A
 
briefing
 
is
 
organised
 
for
 
the
 
entire
 
personnel
 
each
 
year,
 
with
 
the
 
representatives
 
of
 
the
 
HR
 
unit
 
sharing
information
 
about
 
the
 
equal
 
opportunity
 
and
 
non-discrimination
 
plan
 
and
 
occupational
 
well
 
-being
 
and
 
safety.
 
An
extensive
 
survey
 
is
 
also
 
carried
 
out
 
at
 
least
 
once
 
a
 
year
 
to
 
measure
 
employee
 
satisfaction,
 
and
 
the
 
results
 
are
 
shared
with
 
the
 
entire
 
personnel.
Fingrid
 
has
 
an
 
agreement
 
with
 
occupational
 
healthcare
 
services
 
that
 
applies
 
to
 
all
 
persons
 
employed
 
by
 
Fingrid.
 
The
occupational
 
healthcare
 
services
 
make
 
workplace
 
visits
 
to
 
the

Fingrid’s
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety
 
procedures
 
are
 
continuously
 
developed
 
and
 
the
 
work
 
environments
 
are
upgraded
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
risk
 
assessments
 
and
 
workplace
 
surveys.
 
All
 
accidents,
 
near
 
misses
 
and
 
safety
 
observations
are
 
investigated
 
and
 
the
 
lessons
 
learned
 
are
 
implemented.
An
 
annual
 
review
 
is
 
prepared
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
executive
 
management
 
group
 
on
 
the
 
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
occupational

system
 
and
 
the
 
results
 
of
 
internal
 
audits.
 
The
 
OHS
 
committee,
 
comprised
 
of
personnel
 
representatives,
 
convenes
 
three
 
times
 
a
 
year
 
and
 
annually
 
creates
 
an

based
 
on
 
factors
 
such
 
as

assessments,
 
safety
 
observations,
 
occurred

The
 
entire
 
personnel
 
may
 
also
 
make
suggestions
 
to
 
the
 
OHS
 
committee
 
for
 
developing
 
occupational
 
health
 
and
 
safety.
Training
 
organised
 
for
 
personnel
 
is
 
planned
 
annually
 
depending
 
on
 
need.
 
It
 
is
 
discussed
 
in
 
the
 
internal
 
occupational
safety
 
group
 
and
 
OHS
 
committee.
 
In
 
addition,
 
personnel
 
are
 
engaged
 
in
 
decision-making

groups,
 
and
 
their
 
opinions
 
are

among
 
other
 
aspects,
 
the
 
well-

of
 
personnel
 
and
 
their
 
willingness
 
to
 
recommend
 
the
 
company
 
as
 
a

(eNPS).
Through
 
the

show,
 
in
particular,
 
as
 
an
 
increase
 
in
 
the
 
load
 
caused
 
by
 
expert
 
work,
 
as

requirements
 
increase,
 
with

The

are
 
related
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
business
 
model
 
and
 
strategy,
 
which
 
consider
 
cooperation
and
 
the
 
development
 
of

Partners

The

have
helped

how
 
the

be
 
related
 
to

by
 
a
 
risk
 
of
 
negative
 
impact
 
than
 
others,
 
as
 
described
 
in
 
the
following.
Fingrid’s

includes
 
a
 
number
 
of
 
contractors
 
and

Material
 
positive

especially
 
in

worksites
 
and
 
maintenance
 
when
 
securing
 
safe
 
working

and
 
reasonable

Key
aspects
 
in
 
preventing
 
negative
 
human

impacts
 
in
 
procurement
 
include,
 
for
 
example,
 
the

of

and
 
clearing
 
workers
 
and
 
the
 
working

and

of
 
foreign

The

of
 
which
 
is
 
the

of

From
 
the
 
perspective
 
of

and
 
their
 
human

also
 
involves

sectors
 
(e.g.
 
the
 
construction,
 
forest,
 
cleaning
 
and
extractive
 
industries)
 
and

These
 
impacts
 
and

are

other
 
things,
 
the

such
 
as

an
 
account
 
of
 
the

The

safety
 
theme
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
actions
 
targeted
 
at
 
service
 
providers
 
in
 
2024
 
was
 
‘safe
 
work
 
through
planning’.
 
An
 
occupational

campaign
 
was
 
organised
 
under
 
the
 
theme:
 
Plan,
 
assess
 
and
 
reflect
 
before
 
you
 
act.
Fingrid
 
provided
 
service
 
providers
 
with
 
electrical
 
and
 
occupational
 
safety
 
training,
 
for
 
example
 
on
 
the
 
guidelines
concerning
 
operating

safety
 
in
 
the
 
main

The

to
 
improve
 
occupational
safety
 
had
 
an
 
impact
 
on
 
the
 
number
 
of

In

the

observations
 
made
 
at
Fingrid’s

was
 
1,488,
 
which
 
is
 
more

of
 
hazards
 
in
 
investment
 
projects
 
and

and
 
the
assessment
 
of

is
 
divided
 
as
 
follows:
 
preparing
 
a

risk
 
assessment
 
as
 
part

and
 
the

planning
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
the
 
working

at
 
the

For

a

on
 
hazards
 
and
 
adverse
 
conditions
 
is
 
prepared
 
instead
 
of
 
a

Based
 
on
 
the
 
risks,
 
a
 
third
 
party
 
is

to
 
ensure
 
compliance
 
with

at
 
the

Material
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
related
 
to
 
affected
 
communities
The
 
company
 
has
 
identified
 
a
 
material
 
risk
 
related
 
to
 
affected
 
communities,
 
and
 
specifically
 
transmission
 
line
 
area
landowners,
 
due
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
activity
 
as
 
a
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator.
 
This
 
requires
 
maintenance
 
of
 
the
 
existing
grid
 
and
 
additional
 
grid
 
building
 
on
 
land
 
not
 
owned
 
by
 
the
 
company.
 
One
 
of
 
the
 
focal
 
points
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
strategy
 
is
 
an
 
efficiently
 
utilised
 
main
 
grid.
 
The
 
input
 
data
 
for
 
the
 
double
 
materiality
 
assessment
 
and
 
workshop
 
work
have
 
helped
 
ensure
 
an
 
understanding
 
of
 
all
 
affected
 
communities
 
in
 
own
 
operations,
 
along
 
the
 
value
 
chain
 
(e.g.
suppliers’
 
production
 
facilities)
 
and
 
at
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
the
 
value
 
chain
 
(e.g.
 
metal
 
manufacture).
 
Considering
 
the
 
level
 
of
the
 
company’s
 
control,
 
key
 
communities
 
for
 
Fingrid
 
are
 
the
 
close
 
neighbours
 
of
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
areas
 
and,
among
 
them,
 
specifically
 
those
 
on
 
whose
 
land
 
the
 
grid
 
structures
 
are
 
located.
 
No
 
specific
 
landowners
 
have
 
been
identified
 
who
 
may
 
be
 
at
 
greater
 
risk
 
of
 
harm
 
than
 
others;
 
the
 
risk
 
is
 
assessed
 
to
 
relate
 
to
 
all
 
landowners
 
in
 
equal
measure.
 
The
 
company
 
has
 
had
 
no
 
projects
 
in
 
the
 
areas
 
of
 
the
 
indigenous
 
Sami
 
people
 
in
 
recent
 
years.
 
Landowners’
 
concerns
 
are
 
highlighted
 
in
 
new
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects.
 
Fingrid
 
does
 
not
 
own
 
the
 
land
 
and
 
trees
under
 
the
 
transmission
 
lines;
 
they
 
remain
 
the
 
property
 
of
 
the
 
landowners.
 
General
 
acceptance
 
among
 
landowners
and
 
close
 
neighbours
 
can
 
be
 
eroded
 
by
 
how
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
area
 
restricts
 
construction
 
and
 
changes
 
the
landscape.
The
 
fact
 
that,
 
in
 
addition
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
grid
 
projects,
 
landowners
 
may
 
also
 
be
 
affected
 
by
 
a
 
number
 
of
 
other
 
actors’
projects
 
and
 
different
 
practices
 
within
 
the
 
green
 
transition,
 
accentuates
 
the
 
experience
 
of
 
landowners
 
and
 
increases
the
 
complexity
 
of
 
the
 
impacts
 
on
 
them.
 
Landowners
 
expect
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
increase
 
the
 
compensation
 
paid
 
to
 
them
 
for
compulsory
 
purchases
 
to
 
reinforce
 
their
 
right
 
to
 
property.
 
In
 
addition,
 
the
 
company
 
is
 
expected
 
to
 
replace
 
overhead
lines
 
through
 
underground
 
cables.
 
However,
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
underground
 
cables
 
in
 
the
 
grid
 
is
 
currently
 
limited
 
to
substation
 
areas
 
and
 
urban
 
areas
 
when
 
it
 
is
 
not
 
possible
 
to
 
use
 
overhead
 
cables
 
due
 
to
 
a
 
lack
 
of
 
physical
 
space.
 
The
risk
 
is
 
that
 
general
 
acceptance
 
may
 
erode
 
among
 
landowners.

S3-2
 
Processes
 
for
 
engaging
 
with
 
affected
 
communities
 
about
 
impacts
Cooperation
 
with
 
landowners
 
and
 
neighbours
 
living
 
near
 
grid
 
transmission
 
lines
 
in
 
new
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects
begins
 
in
 
the
 
preliminary
 
planning
 
phase
 
when
 
assessing
 
environmental
 
impacts
 
and
 
opportunities
 
to
 
mitigate
 
them.
Through
 
the
 
statutory
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessment
 
(the
 
EIA
 
procedure),
 
landowners
 
and
 
other
 
stakeholders
receive
 
information
 
and
 
can
 
have
 
a
 
say
 
in
 
the
 
project.
 
Engaging
 
these
 
parties
 
is
 
very
 
important
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
ensuring
that
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
adapts
 
to
 
the
 
environment,
 
taking
 
into
 
account
 
various
 
perspectives
 
and
 
stakeholders.
 
In
transmission
 
line
 
route
 
selection,
 
the
 
company
 
considers
 
not
 
only
 
environmental
 
data
 
but
 
also
 
the
 
feedback
received
 
from
 
stakeholders.
Fingrid
 
goes
 
beyond
 
statutory
 
requirements
 
by
 
informing
 
the
 
local
 
communities
 
about
 
the
 
EIA
 
procedures
 
of
transmission
 
line
 
projects
 
by
 
means
 
of
 
landowner
 
letters.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
statutory
 
consultations,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
an
electronic
 
feedback
 
system
 
in
 
place.
 
The
 
letters
 
are
 
supported
 
by
 
ads
 
in
 
local
 
newspapers
 
if
 
necessary.
 
The
 
projects
are
 
also
 
presented
 
in
 
public
 
EIA
 
events
 
open
 
to
 
all.
 
From
 
the
 
perspective
 
of
 
human
 
rights
 
impacts,
 
the
 
EIA
 
procedure
also
 
considers
 
human
 
health,
 
living
 
conditions
 
and
 
amenity.
 
People
 
are
 
concerned
 
about
 
the
 
electromagnetic
 
fields
in
 
the
 
vicinity
 
of
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
concerning
 
which
 
Fingrid
 
publishes
 
up-to
 
-date
 
information
 
and
 
engages
 
in
dialogue
 
with,
 
for
 
example,
 
landowners
 
in
 
EIA
 
procedures.
After
 
the
 
environmental
 
impact
 
assessment
 
phase,
 
Fingrid
 
engages
 
with
 
the
 
landowners
 
in
 
person
 
when
 
the
 
project
advances
 
to
 
general
 
planning
 
and
 
the
 
location
 
of
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
route
 
and
 
the
 
locations
 
of
 
the
 
transmission
towers
 
are
 
known.
 
The
 
landowner
 
may
 
express
 
their
 
opinion
 
on
 
the
 
planning
 
solution
 
or
 
request
 
a
 
review.
Grid
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects
 
are
 
subject
 
to
 
the
 
provisions
 
of
 
the
 
Act
 
on
 
the
 
Redemption
 
of
 
Immovable
 
Property
and
 
Special
 
Rights,
 
under
 
which
 
an
 
expropriation
 
permit
 
may
 
be
 
granted
 
when
 
the
 
public
 
need
 
so
 
requires.
 
An
expropriation
 
permit
 
is
 
applied
 
for
 
from
 
the
 
government
 
to
 
establish
 
a
 
right
 
of
 
use
 
to
 
the
 
transmission
 
line
 
area
 
and
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
landowner’s
 
rights
 
of
 
use.
 
At
 
the
 
application
 
stage,
 
a
 
landowner
 
can
 
give
 
a
 
statement
 
on
 
the
expropriation
 
permit
 
application
 
to
 
the
 
permit
 
authority.
 
Once
 
the
 
expropriation
 
permit
 
has
 
been
 
granted,
 
the
National
 
Land
 
Survey
 
of
 
Finland
 
initiates
 
an
 
expropriation
 
procedure,
 
which
 
is
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
an
 
independent
expropriation
 
committee.
 
The
 
landowners
 
and
 
the
 
expropriation
 
permit
 
applicant,
 
i.e.
 
Fingrid,
 
are
 
parties
 
to
 
the
procedure
 
and
 
all
 
decisions
 
are
 
made
 
by
 
the
 
independent
 
expropriation
 
committee
 
after
 
having
 
consulted
 
the
parties.
 
The
 
owner
 
of
 
the
 
expropriated
 
property
 
receives
 
full
 
compensation
 
for
 
their
 
financial
 
losses.
Engagement
 
with
 
landowners
 
continues
 
in
 
the
 
project’s
 
maintenance
 
phase
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
company’s
 
land
use
 
and
 
environmental
 
policy.
 
Agreements
 
are
 
made
 
beforehand
 
on
 
work
 
and
 
vegetation
 
management
 
performed
on
 
the
 
landowners’
 
land,
 
if
 
necessary.
 
The
 
responsibility
 
for
 
the
 
engagement
 
and
 
the
 
consideration
 
of
 
the
 
results
 
lies
with
 
the

In

several
 
transmission

environmental

assessments
 
were
 
underway.
 
The

Landowners’
 
dissatisfaction
 
with
 
the
 
compensation
 
paid
 
for
 
expropriation
 
has
 
continued.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
increased
 
its
communications
 
to
 
landowners.
 
The
 
company
 
has
 
emphasised
 
its
 
official
 
status
 
as
 
the
 
party
 
carrying
 
out
 
a
 
task
specified
 
in
 
the
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act
 
and
 
the
 
need
 
for
 
legislation
 
to
 
guarantee
 
adequate
 
compensation
 
for
landowners.
 
The

tracks
 
the
 
reform
 
of
 
expropriation
 
legislation
 
to
 
reinforce
 
landowners’
 
right
 
to
 
property.
In

proposal
 
concerning
 
the
 
amendment
 
of
 
the
 
expropriation
 
act
 
in
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
stated
 
that
 
landowners
 
already
 
now
 
receive
 
at
 
least
 
full
 
compensation
 
for
 
their
 
losses
 
caused
 
by
 
transmission

projects.
 
However,
 
the

does
 
not
 
oppose
 
a
 
potential
 
increase
 
in
 
compensation
 
paid
 
for
 
expropriation.

Fingrid
 
engages
 
with
 
consumers
 
and
 
end-users
 
primarily
 
via
 
electronic
 
means
 
of
 
communication.
 
Fingrid’s
 
public
website
 
and
 
social
 
media
 
channels
 
provide
 
consumers
 
and
 
end-users
 
with
 
information
 
about
 
Fingrid’s
 
grid
 
and
 
how
the
 
price
 
of
 
electricity
 
is
 
formed,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
possible
 
power
 
disturbances.
 
The
 
price
 
of
 
electricity
 
can
 
also
 
be
monitored
 
using
 
Fingrid’s
 
“Tuntihinta”
 
(i.e.
 
“Hourly
 
Price”)
 
mobile
 
app,
 
which
 
can
 
be
 
used
 
to
 
send
 
notifications
 
of,
for
 
example,
 
disruptions
 
in
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
to
 
consumers
 
who
 
use
 
the

also
 
encourages
 
consumers
 
to
 
prepare
 
for
 
possible

disturbances.
 
The
 
public

about
 
them
 
that
 
is
 
saved
 
in

in
 
several
 
different
 
ways.
 
Seminars
 
and

are
arranged
 
for

also
 
attends
 
many

Fingrid
 
has
 
three
customer
 
committees
 
geared
 
to
 
developing
 
customer
 
activities:
 
an
 
advisory
 
committee,
 
a
 
grid
 
committee
 
and
 
a
market
 
committee.
 
Regular
 
dialogue
 
with
 
customers
 
takes
 
place
 
through
 
these
 
committees.
 
Fingrid
 
also
 
arranges
one-on-one

annually.
 
The
 
goal
 
is
 
to

including
 
on
 
the

of

To
 
increase
 
customers’
 
and
 
stakeholders’
 
trust,
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
raised
 
its
 
profile
 
in
 
mass

giving
numerous
 
interviews
 
about
 
the
 
power
 
system,
 
electricity

and

transformation.
 
Decision-makers
 
and

have
 
also
 
been
 
informed
 
on
 
issues
 
related
 
to
 
the

of
 
electricity
 
and
 
the
 
functioning
 
of
 
the

Fingrid
 
has
 
strived
 
to
 
develop
 
its
 
customer
 
activities
 
such
 
that
 
customers
 
would
 
see
 
Fingrid
 
as
 
a
 
whole
 
rather
 
than
separate
 
services.
 
The
 
aim
 
is
 
not
 
only
 
to
 
streamline
 
customer
 
service,
 
but
 
also
 
to
 
more
 
easily
 
implement
 
the

required
 
by
 
the

of

have
 
been
 
held
 
for

In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
continued
 
to
 
focus
 
on
 
personnel’s
 
information
 
security
 
awareness.
 
Various
 
info

on
 
the
 
topic
were
 
arranged
 
for
 
personnel.
 
Online
 
information

which
 
was
 
mandatory
 
for
 
all
 
personnel,
 
was
 
also
provided.
 
The

is
 
continuously
 
developed
 
and
 
systematic
 
in

with

For
 
example,
 
the
 
information

was
 
updated
 
to
 
comply
 
with
 
the
 
NIS2

In
 
addition,
 
AI

An

reflected
 
as

and
 
as
 
promoting
 
Finland’s

A
 
material

that
 
must
 
be
 
managed
 
is
 
a
 
blackout
 
in
 
which
 
electricity
 
is
 
not

regionally
 
or,
in
 
the

Business

Material
 
impacts,
 
risks
 
and
 
opportunities
 
related
 
to
 
business
 
conduct
From
 
a
 
business
 
conduct
 
perspective,
 
the
 
material
 
positive
 
impacts
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
business
 
operations
 
are
 
reflected
 
in
business
 
operations
 
and
 
a
 
corporate
 
culture
 
that
 
are
 
ethical,
 
aligned
 
with
 
the
 
company’s
 
values
 
and
 
compliant
 
with
regulations.
 
The
 
impacts
 
stem
 
from
 
the
 
company’s
 
strategy
 
and
 
business
 
model,
 
which
 
is
 
based
 
on
 
partnership.
 
A
strategic
 
risk
 
to
 
be
 
managed
 
is
 
the
 
distortion
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
culture,
 
which
 
could
 
appear
 
as
 
disregard
 
for
 
the
company’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
and
 
responsibility
 
requirements
 
or
 
as
 
other
 
unprofessional
 
conduct.
 
In
 
addition,
regulations
 
are
 
increasingly
 
influencing
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
and
 
in
 
many
 
cases
 
have
 
become
 
more
 
unpredictable.
This
 
underscores
 
the
 
importance
 
of
 
risk
 
management
 
from
 
the
 
perspectives
 
of
 
both
 
operating
 
conditions
 
and
corporate
 
financing.
 
Regarding
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
regulation,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
has,
 
in
 
its
 
decisions
 
of
 
29
 
December
 
2023,
confirmed
 
the
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
applicable
 
to
 
the
 
reasonableness
 
of
 
the
 
pricing
 
by
 
electricity
 
and
 
natural
 
gas
network
 
companies
 
in
 
2024–2031.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
 
view,
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
 
impacts
 
in
 
the
 
preparation
 
of
 
the
 
Energy
Authority’s
 
regulatory
 
model
 
decision
 
has
 
been
 
deficient
 
and
 
there
 
are
 
still
 
issues
 
open
 
to
 
interpretation
 
related
 
to
the
 
presented
 
decision.
 
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
a
 
solution
 
that
 
would
 
also
 
enable
 
the
 
future
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
grid,
allowing
 
the
 
hundreds
 
of
 
billions
 
in
 
green
 
transition
 
investments
 
in
 
Finland
 
to
 
be
 
implemented
 
as
 
planned.
 
On
 
29
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
methods
concerning
 
the
 
specification
 
of
 
the

the

According
 
to

the

ethical
 
business
 
operations
 
and
 
corporate

in

The
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
also
 
includes
 
Fingrid’s
 
human
 
rights
 
commitment
 
and
 
environmental
 
precautionary
 
principle.
Fingrid’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
includes
 
a
 
prohibition
 
on
 
money
 
laundering
 
and
 
corruption,
 
such
 
as
 
blackmail
 
and
 
bribery.
The
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
and
 
all
 
of
 
its
 
values
 
and
 
commitments
 
apply
 
to
 
every
 
Fingrid
 
business
 
unit
 
and,
 
in
 
turn,
 
all
Fingrid
 
employees.
 
In
 
the
 
company’s
 
assessment,
 
no
 
business
 
unit
 
is
 
more
 
exposed
 
to
 
corruption
 
and
 
bribery
 
than
another.
 
Fingrid’s
 
managers
 
and
 
the
 
entire
 
work
 
community
 
ensure
 
that
 
behaviour
 
is
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
the
 
Code
 
of
Conduct.
 
Online
 
training
 
in
 
the
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
is
 
also
 
required
 
for
 
all
 
personnel
 
at
 
the
 
start
 
of
 
employment
 
and
regularly
 
at
 
least
 
every
 
three
 
years
 
and
 
more
 
frequently
 
as
 
needed.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid’s
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
was
 
updated
and
 
an
 
update
 
of
 
the
 
online
 
training
 
course
 
was
 
started.
The
 
contractors,
 
service
 
providers
 
and
 
goods
 
suppliers
 
who
 
are
 
Fingrid’s
 
contractual
 
partners
 
are
 
required
 
to
 
comply
with
 
separate
 
corporate
 
responsibility
 
requirements
 
or
 
other
 
similar,
 
separately
 
agreed
 
requirements.
 
The
requirements
 
cover
 
issues
 
such
 
as
 
business
 
practices,
 
human
 
rights,
 
labour
 
rights,
 
occupational
 
safety,
 
the
environment,
 
and
 
anti-corruption
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
Global
 
Compact
 
initiative.
 
In
 
addition,
 
suppliers
 
must
ensure
 
and
 
oversee,
 
as
 
regards
 
deliveries
 
to
 
Fingrid,
 
that
 
their
 
own
 
suppliers
 
also
 
comply
 
with
 
legislation
 
and
 
the
agreed
 
corporate
 
responsibility
 
requirements.
 
Any
 
activities
 
harming
 
human
 
rights
 
are
 
addressed
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
the
 
company’s
 
human
 
rights
 
commitment,
 
including
 
corrective
 
action
 
when
 
needed.
 
The
 
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
includes
 
an
 
auditing
 
right,
 
which
 
is
 
described
 
in
 
more
 
detail
 
in
 
connection
 
with
 
the
 
next
 
disclosure,
 
G1-2
(Management
 
of
 
relationships
 
with
 
suppliers).
 
The
 
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
was
 
updated
 
in
 
2024.
Fingrid’s
 
personnel
 
and
 
external
 
stakeholders
 
have
 
access
 
to
 
several
 
feedback
 
and
 
reporting
 
channels.
 
Personnel
have
 
been
 
provided
 
with
 
instructions
 
on
 
their
 
use
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
public
 
website,
 
intranet
 
and
 
induction
 
training
 
course.
Employees
 
can
 
report
 
misconduct
 
to
 
their
 
supervisor,
 
management
 
or
 
HR
 
department.
 
To
 
ensure
 
responsible
conduct,
 
a
 
confidential
 
and
 
independent
 
reporting
 
channel
 
is
 
in
 
place
 
where
 
people
 
can
 
report
 
misconduct
anonymously
 
or
 
using
 
their
 
real
 
name.
 
The
 
reporting,
 
i.e.
 
whistleblowing
 
channel
 
is
 
available
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
personnel
and
 
all
 
external
 
stakeholders.
The
 
guidelines
 
regarding
 
reporting
 
misconduct,
 
the
 
reporting
 
channel
 
and
 
whistleblower
 
protection
 
comply
 
with
 
the
provisions
 
of
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Act
 
on
 
the
 
Protection
 
of
 
Individuals
 
Reporting
 
Violations
 
of
 
European
 
Union
 
and
 
National
Rights
 
(the
 
so-called
 
Whistleblower
 
Protection
 
Act).
 
All
 
suspected
 
breaches
 
are
 
investigated
 
confidentially
 
and
professionally,
 
and
 
with
 
guaranteed
 
protection
 
of
 
privacy.
 
It
 
is
 
moreover
 
ensured
 
that
 
the
 
whistleblower
 
will
 
not
face
 
negative
 
consequences.
 
Whistleblowing
 
reports
 
are
 
handled
 
by
 
the
 
Fingrid’s
 
designated
 
Legal
 
Counsel
 
in
 
charge
of
 
compliance,
 
the
 
General
 
Counsel
 
and
 
the
 
President
 
&
 
CEO.
 
If
 
a
 
report
 
has
 
been
 
submitted
 
with
 
the
whistleblower’s
 
real
 
name,
 
the
 
aforementioned
 
party
 
handling
 
the
 
report
 
will
 
ensure
 
that
 
the
 
person’s
 
data
 
is
processed
 
in
 
the
 
manner
 
required
 
by
 
law.
 
If
 
the
 
report
 
leads
 
to
 
whistleblower
 
protection
 
for
 
the
 
person,
 
the
 
parties
handling
 
the
 
report
 
will
 
ensure
 
that
 
the
 
person’s
 
whistleblower
 
protection
 
is
 
implemented
 
together
 
with
 
the
 
HR
Director
 
and
 
HR
 
Manager.
 
A
 
training
 
course
 
on
 
whistleblowing
 
guidelines
 
was
 
organised
 
for
 
all
 
personnel
 
at
 
the
 
start
of

The
 
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct,
 
which
 
is
 
mandatory
 
for
 
contractors
 
and
 
suppliers,
 
is
 
always
 
applied
 
to
 
procurements
worth
 
at
 
least
 
EUR
 
60,000
 
and
 
it
 
is
 
attached
 
to,
 
for
 
example,
 
service,
 
material,
 
equipment
 
and
 
ICT
 
purchase
agreements.
 
In
 
recurring
 
procurements,
 
such
 
as
 
in
 
the
 
supplier
 
registers
 
used
 
for
 
substations
 
and
 
transmission
 
line
procurements,
 
a
 
commitment
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
Supplier
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
as
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
overall
 
contract
 
is
 
a
 
condition
 
for
being
 
entered
 
in
 
the
 
supplier
 
register.
 
In
 
addition,
 
contractual
 
partners
 
are
 
required
 
to
 
commit
 
to
 
separate
 
terms
and
 
conditions
 
regarding
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
subcontracting
 
and
 
labour,
 
safety
 
and
 
environmental
 
matters.
 
The
 
above-
mentioned
 
contract
 
terms
 
are
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
director
 
in
 
charge
 
of
 
grid
 
building
 
and
 
maintenance.
 
The
 
contract
terms
 
regarding
 
subcontracting
 
and
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
labour
 
were
 
clarified
 
in
 
2024
 
regarding
 
the
 
main
 
contractor’s
responsibility
 
to
 
ensure
 
foreign
 
workers’
 
right
 
to
 
work
 
and
 
compliance
 
with
 
national
 
legislation
 
and
 
local
 
rules.
Compliance
 
with
 
and
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
requirements
 
described
 
above
 
are
 
ensured
 
through
 
risk-based
 
audits.
 
If
deviations
 
are
 
detected,
 
their
 
remediation
 
is
 
supported
 
in
 
co
 
-operation
 
with
 
the
 
suppliers.
 
Worksite
 
responsibility
audits
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
verify
 
contractors’
 
and
 
service
 
providers’
 
contractor
 
obligations,
 
occupational
 
safety
 
and
environmental
 
management.
 
Audits
 
are
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
an
 
independent
 
auditor
 
in
 
projects
 
involving
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
non-
Finnish
 
workforce.
 
The
 
regional
 
state
 
administrative
 
agency
 
also
 
performed
 
inspections
 
at
 
worksites.
 
The
 
majority
 
of
the
 
international
 
procurement
 
of
 
goods
 
is
 
handled
 
by
 
Fingrid’s
 
main
 
contractors.
 
Audits
 
are
 
performed
 
with
 
the
 
help
of
 
a
 
third
 
party
 
on
 
both
 
Fingrid’s
 
direct
 
contractual
 
partners
 
and
 
their
 
sub-suppliers,
 
but
 
also
 
possible
 
future
 
material
or
 
equipment
 
suppliers.
 
Fingrid
 
requires
 
any
 
audits
 
to
 
be
 
carried
 
out
 
in
 
co
 
-operation
 
with
 
the
 
supplier.
 
Suppliers
 
are
obligated
 
to
 
remediate
 
any
 
breaches
 
they
 
commit
 
within
 
a
 
timeframe
 
agreed
 
with
 
Fingrid.
In
 
2024,
 
10
 
sites
 
were
 
audited,
 
from
 
investment
 
project
 
worksites
 
to
 
maintenance
 
operations.
 
In
 
international
 
goods
sourcing,
 
third
 
-party
 
supplier
 
audits
 
were
 
carried
 
out
 
at
 
13
 
production
 
plants
 
in
 
a
 
total
 
of
 
7
 
countries.
 
Four
 
audits
were
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
an
 
independent
 
auditor
 
in
 
projects
 
concerning
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
non-Finnish
 
workforce.
 
The
 
regional
state
 
administrative
 
agency
 
performed
 
inspections
 
at
 
one
 
clearing
 
worksite.
Because
 
of
 
the
 
domestic
 
nature
 
of
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations
 
and
 
from
 
the
 
perspective
 
of
 
ensuring
 
the
 
grid’s
system
 
security,
 
co
 
-operation
 
with
 
contractual
 
suppliers
 
operating
 
in
 
Finland
 
is
 
important
 
to
 
Fingrid.
 
In
 
grid
maintenance,
 
response
 
times
 
for
 
critical
 
work
 
are
 
typically
 
short,
 
which
 
is
 
why
 
the
 
proportion
 
of
 
local
 
labour
 
in
 
this
work
 
is
 
high.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
special
 
expertise
 
and
 
equipment
 
required
 
by
 
the
 
investment
 
projects,
 
the
 
impact
 
on
 
both
regional
 
and
 
local
 
employment
 
is
 
generally
 
lower
 
in
 
these
 
projects.
Construction
 
work
 
on
 
the
 
grid
 
is
 
carried
 
out
 
on
 
a
 
project
 
basis,
 
in
 
separate
 
substation
 
and
 
transmission
 
line
 
projects
typically
 
as
 
turn-key
 
contracts.
 
The
 
main
 
contractor,
 
acting
 
in
 
the
 
role
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
contractual
 
partner,
 
is
 
in
 
charge
 
of
the
 
detailed
 
design,
 
the
 
procurement
 
of
 
material
 
and
 
equipment
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
building
 
and
 
installations
 
until
commissioning.
 
The
 
main
 
contractor
 
on
 
a
 
specific
 
project
 
may
 
have
 
several
 
subcontractors
 
and
 
must
 
submit
 
the
most
 
significant
 
subcontractors
 
for
 
approval
 
by
 
Fingrid.
 
Fingrid
 
also
 
directly
 
procures
 
various
 
materials
 
and
equipment,
 
such
 
as
 
reactors,
 
transformers
 
and
 
conductors.
The
 
suitability
 
and
 
qualifications
 
of
 
the
 
contractors
 
and
 
service
 
providers
 
carrying
 
out
 
grid
 
construction
 
and
maintenance
 
are
 
verified
 
primarily
 
by
 
means
 
of
 
separate
 
supplier
 
registers
 
and
 
shortlisting
 
procedures.
 
As
 
stated
above,
 
contractual
 
partners
 
are
 
required
 
to
 
commit
 
to
 
contractor
 
obligations
 
and
 
separate
 
company
 
terms
 
and
conditions
 
regarding
 
the
 
use
 
of
 
subcontracting
 
and
 
labour,
 
occupational
 
safety
 
and
 
environmental
 
matters.
 
To
ensure
 
the
 
equal
 
treatment
 
of
 
suppliers,
 
purchasing
 
personnel
 
are
 
trained
 
in
 
setting
 
suitability
 
and
 
minimum
requirements.
 
Each
 
person
 
is
 
required
 
to
 
identify
 
and
 
declare
 
in
 
writing
 
any
 
conflicts
 
of
 
interest
 
before
 
making
 
a
procurement
 
decision.
 
As
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
procurement
 
process,
 
regular
 
checks
 
are
 
performed
 
to
 
ensure
 
that
 
the
 
selected
 
suppliers
 
are
 
not
subject
 
to
 
mandatory
 
or
 
discretionary
 
exclusion
 
criteria
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
Act
 
on

All
 
the

must
 
be
 
passed
 
in
 
order
 
for
 
a

arise.
Training
 
in
 
public
 
procurements
 
is
 
broadly
 
provided
 
to
 
all
 
personnel
 
every
 
autumn.
 
The
 
2024
 
training
 
covered
procurement
 
planning
 
and
 
basic
 
principles,
 
the
 
course
 
of
 
the
 
negotiation
 
procedure,
 
including
 
the
 
procurement
notice
 
and
 
requirements
 
concerning
 
the
 
bidder,
 
direct
 
procurement
 
criteria,
 
and
 
contract

situations.
Training
 
on
 
procurements
 
that
 
fall
 
below
 
the
 
threshold
 
values
 
was
 
also
 
arranged
 
in
 
the
 
autumn.
 
The
 
training
 
covered
the
 
company’s
 
internal
 
procurement
 
policy
 
and
 
procurement
 
guidelines,
 
including
 
responsibility-related
 
checks
 
on
bidders.
 
Complementary
 
smaller
 
training
 
sessions
 
to
 
complement
 
these
 
were
 
organised
 
in
 
business
 
units
 
during
 
the
year
 
on
 
both
 
public
 
procurements
 
and
 
procurements
 
that
 
fall
 
below
 
the
 
threshold
 
values.
Continuous
 
dialogue
 
is
 
sought
 
with
 
contractors
 
and
 
suppliers
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
company’s
 
due
 
diligence
process.
 
Fingrid’s
 
project
 
managers
 
are
 
given
 
training
 
in
 
interaction
 
skills
 
and
 
project
 
teamwork.
 
Some
 
employees
are
 
also
 
trained
 
in
 
managing
 
challenging
 
situations
 
with
 
customers
 
or
 
suppliers.
 
In
 
large
 
investment
 
projects,
 
the
project
 
managers
 
engage
 
in
 
close
 
dialogue
 
with
 
suppliers.
 
In
 
the
 
most
 
significant
 
and
 
strategic
 
projects,
 
a
 
joint
steering
 
group
 
is
 
formed
 
together
 
with
 
the
 
supplier.
 
Besides
 
project
 
implementation,
 
the
 
steering
 
groups
 
hold
 
a
dialogue
 
on
 
suppliers’
 
opportunities,
 
for
 
example,
 
to
 
reduce
 
emissions
 
and
 
promote
 
sustainability
 
matters
 
in
 
their
value
 
chains.
 
Fingrid
 
and
 
maintenance
 
suppliers
 
organise
 
annual
 
quality
 
meetings
 
in
 
which
 
sustainability
 
topics,
among
 
other
 
things,
 
are
 
addressed.
 
Fingrid
 
also
 
arranges
 
a
 
“Main
 
Grid
 
Day”
 
event
 
for
 
suppliers
 
every
 
18
 
months
 
to
discuss
 
topical
 
issues.

that
 
goes
 
against
 
the
 
Code
 
of
 
Conduct
 
or

is
 
committed
 
to
 
fairly
 
investigate
 
all
 
reports
 
that
 
are
made
 
in
 
good

and
 
to
 
implement
 
the
 
necessary
 
measures
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
investigation
 
and
 
its
 
outcome.
 
These
commitments
 
are
 
confirmed
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
whistleblowing
 
guidelines,
 
which
 
were
 
updated
 
in
 
2024
 
to
 
meet
 
the

aware
 
of
 
any
 
confirmed
 
cases

related
 
to

and
 
no
 
fines
 
related
 
to
 
bribery
 
or

were
 
imposed
 
on
 
the

Since
 
there
 
were
 
no

the

also
 
did
 
not

measures
 
to
 
address
 
norm
 
violations.

Fingrid’s
 
business
 
model
 
and
 
the
 
regulation
 
of
 
transmission
 
system
 
operations
Fingrid
 
constitutes
 
a
 
natural
 
monopoly
 
as
 
referred
 
to
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act
 
(588/2013),
 
with
 
duties
defined
 
in
 
legislation.
 
The
 
company’s
 
operations,
 
reasonableness
 
in
 
pricing
 
and
 
financial
 
result
 
are
 
regulated
 
and
overseen
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Market
 
Authority.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
defines
 
the
 
regulation
 
methods
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
grid
operations
 
for
 
two
 
four
 
-year
 
regulatory
 
periods
 
at
 
a
 
time.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
has
 
defined
 
the
 
regulation
 
methods
for
 
the
 
sixth
 
and
 
seventh
 
regulatory
 
periods,
 
i.e.
 
for
 
2024–2027
 
and
 
2028–2031.
 
The
 
regulation
 
methods
 
define
 
the
maximum
 
annual
 
financial
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
for
 
Fingrid
 
by
 
the
 
regulation.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
the
 
possibility
 
to
 
balance
 
its
result
 
against
 
the
 
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
during
 
the
 
regulatory
 
periods.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
also
 
confirms
 
other
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
regulated
 
operations.
 
The
 
reasonable
 
financial
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
by
 
the
 
regulation
 
forms
 
the
 
starting
 
point
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
financial
 
planning
and
 
pricing.
 
The
 
turnover
 
to
 
be
 
charged
 
for
 
the
 
services
 
can
 
be
 
calculated
 
by
 
adding
 
operating
 
expenses
 
to
 
the
result.
 
The
 
turnover
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
main
 
grid
 
segment
 
essentially
 
consists
 
of
 
the
 
fees
 
collected
 
from
 
the
 
grid
 
customers.
The
 
bulk
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
comes
 
from
 
the
 
consumption
 
of
 
electricity,
 
whereas
 
electricity
 
production
 
only
contributes
 
a
 
small
 
portion.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
electricity
 
consumption,
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
output
from
 
and
 
input
 
into
 
the
 
grid
 
and
 
power-based
 
tariffs.
 
In
 
addition,
 
a
 
separate
 
connection
 
fee
 
is
 
charged
 
for
connection
 
to
 
the
 
grid.
 
The
 
turnover
 
of
 
the
 
balance
 
services
 
segment
 
comes
 
from
 
the
 
balancing
 
power
 
sold
 
to
maintain
 
the
 
national
 
power
 
balance
 
and
 
separate
 
balance
 
service
 
fees,
 
which
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
cover
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
power
system
 
reserve
 
and
 
imbalance
 
management
 
and
 
the
 
possible
 
loss
 
of
 
balancing
 
power
 
trade.
 
Fingrid’s
 
total
 
costs
consist
 
of
 
the
 
operating
 
expenses,
 
including
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
the
 
segments
 
mentioned
 
above,
 
and
 
finance
 
costs
 
and
taxes,
 
which
 
are
 
excluded
 
from
 
the
 
regulatory
 
calculations.
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
are
 
regulated,
 
including
 
both
reporting
 
segments,
 
i.e.
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
segment
 
and
 
balance
 
services
 
segment.
The
 
so-called
 
adjusted
 
profit,
 
realised
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
regulation,
 
is
 
calculated
 
by
 
adjusting
 
the
 
parent
company’s
 
operating
 
profit
 
according
 
to
 
the
 
Energy
 
Market
 
Authority’s
 
regulation
 
methods
 
and
 
by
 
adding
 
the
impact
 
of
 
the
 
incentives.
Any
 
realised
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
over
 
a
 
regulatory
 
period
 
that
 
exceeds
 
the
 
allowed
 
return
 
is
 
a
 
surplus
 
that
 
must
 
be
offset
 
at
 
the
 
latest
 
during
 
the
 
next
 
regulatory
 
period,
 
e.g.
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
lower
 
prices
 
for
 
customers
 
or
 
by
 
not
 
carrying
out
 
the
 
price
 
increases
 
corresponding
 
to
 
the
 
rise
 
in
 
costs.
 
If
 
the
 
realised
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
over
 
a
 
regulatory
 
period is
below
 
the
 
allowed
 
financial
 
result,
 
a
 
deficit
 
is
 
created
 
which
 
Fingrid
 
may
 
recover
 
from
 
customers,
 
e.g.
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
higher
 
future
 
prices.
 
Fingrid’s
 
aim
 
is
 
to
 
achieve
 
the
 
allowed
 
financial
 
result
 
in
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period.

For
 
the

Fingrid’s
 
grid
 
assets
 
were
 
revalued
 
at
 
the
 
beginning
 
of
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period
 
2024–2031
 
for
 
2024.
 
The
 
adjusted
present
 
value
 
in
 
use
 
for
 
a
 
grid
 
component
 
is
 
calculated
 
from
 
the
 
adjusted
 
replacement
 
cost,
 
using
 
the
 
useful
 
life
 
and
mean
 
lifetime
 
data
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
component.
 
The
 
calculation
 
was
 
based
 
on
 
unit
 
prices
 
for
 
grid
 
components
 
from
 
grid
projects
 
completed
 
in
 
2022
 
and
 
component
 
data
 
from
 
Fingrid’s
 
asset
 
register
 
at
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
2024.
 
The
 
unit
 
prices
 
to
be
 
confirmed
 
for
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period
 
2024–2027
 
are
 
applied
 
to
 
grid
 
investments
 
completed
 
in
 
2024.
 
According
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
own
 
estimate,
 
the
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
from
 
operations
 
was
 
around
 
EUR
 
5
 
million
 
higher
 
than
 
the
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
for
 
2024.
 
The
 
cumulative
 
surplus
 
is
 
estimated
 
to
 
EUR
 
0.
Fingrid
 
also
 
engages
 
in
 
other
 
regulated
 
business
 
operations
 
deviating
 
from
 
the
 
monitoring
 
of
 
reasonable
 
return
described
 
above,
 
but
 
their
 
impact
 
on
 
the
 
company’s
 
financial
 
result
 
and
 
balance

is
 
negligible.

NOTES
 
TO
 
THE
 
CONSOLIDATED
 
FINANCIAL
 
STATEMENTS
4
 
BENCHMARK
 
FOR
 
TSO
 
OPERATIONS
Chapter
 
four
 
contains
 
general
 
information
 
about
 
the
 
Group
 
and
 
the
 
general
 
accounting
principles
 
applied
 
to
 
the
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements.
The
 
chapter
 
describes
 
how
 
Fingrid’s
 
turnover
 
and
 
result
 
are
 
formed
 
and
 
how
 
they
 
relate
to
 
the
 
allowed
 
regulatory
 
profit
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
regulation.
The
 
impact
 
of
 
the
regulation
 
is
 
reflected
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
day-to-day
 
operations
 
and
 
revenue
 
collection.
 
The
 
chapter
 
describes
 
Fingrid’s
 
operating
 
receivables
 
and
 
liabilities,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
risk
management
 
they
 
entail.
People
 
are
 
Fingrid’s
 
most
 
important
 
resource,
 
which
 
is
 
why
 
information
 
related
 
to
personnel
 
has
 
been
 
included
 
here,
 
in
 
the
 
first
 
note.
Fingrid
 
is
 
a
 
substantial
 
tax
 
payer,
 
and
 
Fingrid
 
does
 
not
 
use
 
tax
 
planning.
 
The
 
note
 
on
taxes
 
is
 
at
 
the
 
end
 
of
 
this
 
chapter,
 
in
 
chapter
 
4.9.
4.1
 
General
 
information
 
about
 
the
 
Group
 
and
 
general
 
accounting
 
principles
Fingrid Oyj is a Finnish public limited liability company responsible for electricity transmission in Finland’s main grid.
 
The
 
nationwide
 
grid
 
is
 
an
integral
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system
 
in
Finland
.
 
The
 
transmission
 
grid
 
is
 
the
 
trunk
 
network
 
to
 
which
 
major
 
power
 
plants
 
and
 
major
 
consumers,
 
such
 
as
industry
 
and
 
regional
 
electricity
 
distribution
 
networks,
 
and
 
cross-border
 
transmission
 
connections
 
are
 
connected.
Finland’s
 
main
 
grid
 
is
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
Nordic
 
power
 
system,
 
which
 
is
 
connected
 
to
 
the
 
system
 
in
 
Central
 
Europe
 
via
 
high-voltage
 
direct
 
current
transmission
 
links.
 
Finland
 
also
 
has
 
DC
 
links
 
with
 
Estonia.
The
 
main
 
grid
 
encompasses
 
more
 
than
 
14,500
 
kilometres
 
of
 
400,
 
220
 
and
 
110
 
kilovolt
 
transmission
 
lines,
 
plus
 
more
 
than
 
100
 
substations.
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
charge
 
of
 
planning
 
and
 
monitoring
 
the
 
operation
 
of
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
 
for
 
maintaining
 
and
 
developing
 
the
 
system.
 
The
 
company
 
is
responsible
 
for
 
the
 
national
 
power
 
balance
 
and
 
for
 
ensuring
 
that
 
electricity
 
consumption
 
and
 
production
 
are
 
always
 
balanced.
 
An
 
additional
 
task
 
is
to
 
participate
 
in
 
work
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
ENTSO-E,
 
the
 
European
 
Network
 
of
 
Transmission
 
System
 
Operators
 
for
 
Electricity,
 
and
 
in
 
preparing
 
European
market
 
and
 
operational
 
codes
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
network
 
planning.
Fingrid
 
offers
 
grid
 
and
 
balance
 
services,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
other

adequate
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
capacity,
 
by
 
securing
 
the
 
preconditions
 
of
 
maintaining
 
power
balance,
 
by
 
removing
 
bottlenecks
 
in
 
cross-border
 
transmission
 
links
 
and
 
by

Use
 
of
 
Estimates
 
and
 
Management
 
Judgment
When
 
the
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements
 
are
 
drawn
 
up
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
IFRS,
 
the
 
company
 
management
 
needs
 
to
 
make
 
estimates
 
and
assumptions
 
which
 
have
 
an
 
impact
 
on
 
the
 
amounts
 
of
 
assets,
 
liabilities,
 
income
 
and
 
expenses
 
recorded
 
and
 
conditional
 
items
 
presented.
 
In
addition,
 
the
 
management’s
 
judgement
 
is
 
required
 
when
 
preparing
 
and
 
applying
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
preparation.
The
 
estimates
 
and
 
assumptions
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
historical
 
experience,
 
understanding
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
market’s
 
development
 
and
 
other
 
justified
assumptions.

factors
 
linked
 
with
 
operative
 
activities,
 
assets

criteria.
 
The

are
 
divided
 
into
 
strategic
 
risks
 
and
 
major

risks
 
to
 
be
 
reported
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors,
 
and
 
into
 
operational
 
risks.
Hedging
 
a
 
risk
 
will
 
be
 
implemented
 
when
 
the
 
cost
 
of
 
the
 
hedge
 
is
 
in
 
reasonable
 
relation
 
to
 
the
 
size
 
of
 
the
 
risk.
 
A
 
general
 
objective
 
is
 
to
 
transfer
significant
 
risks
 
by
 
contracts,

The

risks.
 
Due
 
to
 
the
 
nature
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
basic
 
mission,
 
risks
 
are
 
also
assessed
 
from
 
a
 
societal
 
perspective.
The
 
Board
 
approves
 
the
 
key
 
principles
 
of
 
internal
 
control
 
and
 
risk
 
management
 
and
 
any
 
amendments
 
to
 
them.
 
The
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
approves
 
the
primary
 
actions
 
for
 
risk
 
management
 
as
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
corporate
 
strategy,
 
indicators,
 
action
 
plan,
 
and
 
budget.
 
The
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
(audit
 
committee)
receives
 
a
 
situation
 
report
 
annually,
 
or
 
more
 
frequently
 
if
 
necessary,
 
on
 
the
 
major
 
risks
 
relating
 
to
 
the
 
operations
 
of
 
the
 
company
 
and
 
on
 
the
management
 
of
 
such
 
risks.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
completed
 
its
 
enterprise
 
risk
 
management
 
development
 
programme
 
aimed
 
at
 
identifying
 
and
 
managing
 
the
 
interdependencies
 
of
individual
 
risks
 
more
 
effectively.
 
As
 
a
 
result
 
of
 
the
 
programme,
 
the
 
company’s
 
risk
 
management
 
responds
 
more
 
effectively
 
to
 
the
 
increased
requirements
 
imposed
 
by
 
the
 
dramatic
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
operating
 
environment
 
on
 
risk
 
management.
 
4.3
 
Formation
 
of
 
turnover
 
and
 
financial
 
result
Grid
 
service
 
revenue
 
is
 
mainly
 
determined
 
by
 
electricity
 
consumption.
 
The
 
proportion
 
of
 
the
 
fees
 
allocated
 
to
 
electricity
 
production
 
is
 
small,
 
in
compliance
 
with
 
EU
 
legislation.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Market
 
Authority
 
approves
 
the
 
pricing
 
structure
 
for
 
grid
 
services,
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
which
 
Fingrid
 
sets
 
the
unit
 
prices
 
for
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
during
 
the
 
winter
 
period
 
and
 
for
 
consumption
 
during
 
other
 
times.
 
In
 
addition
 
to
 
consumption
 
invoicing,
 
Fingrid
additionally
 
charges
 
fees
 
for
 
output
 
from
 
and
 
input
 
into
 
the
 
grid,
 
and
 
power-based
 
tariffs.
 
Within
 
the
 
framework
 
of
 
grid
 
services,
 
a
 
customer
 
obtains
the
 
right
 
to
 
transmit
 
electricity
 
to
 
and
 
from
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
through
 
its
 
connection
 
point.
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
determines
 
how
 
congestion
 
income
 
is

Fingrid
 
waived
 
the
 
grid
 
service
 
fees
 
for
 
three
 
months
 
in
 
2024
 
and
 
used
 
congestion
 
income
 
to
 
offset
 
the
 
substantial
 
increase
 
in
 
costs
 
to
 
the
benefit
 
of
 
its
 
customers.
 
More
 
information
 
on

is
 
provided
 
in

5.1.
Fingrid
 
is
 
responsible
 
for
 
the
 
continuous

in
 
Finland
 
at
 
all
 
times
 
by
 
buying
 
and
 
selling
 
balancing

in
 
Finland.
 
Fingrid
 
buys
 
and
sells

in
 
order
 
to
 
stabilise
 
the
 
hourly
 
power

of

(balance

and
 
this

assumes

for
 
each

a
 
balance
service
 
agreement
 
with
 
impartial
 
and

terms
 
and
 
conditions.
ITC
 
compensation
 
is,
 
for
 
Fingrid,
 
income
 
and/or

which
 
the

Inter-Transmission
 
System
 
Operator
 
Compensation
 
(ITC)
Compensation
 
for
 
the
 
transit
 
transmissions
 
of
 
electricity
 
has
 
been
 
agreed
 
upon
 
through
 
an
 
ITC
 
(Inter-Transmission
 
System
 
Operator
Compensation)
 
agreement.
 
The
 
centralised
 
calculations
 
are
 
carried
 
out
 
by
 
ENTSO-E
 
(the
 
European
 
Network
 
of
 
Transmission
 
System
 
Operators
 
of
Electricity).
 
ITC
 
compensation
 
is
 
determined
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
compensation
 
paid
 
for
 
use
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
and
 
transmission
 
losses.
 
The
 
ITC
 
calculations
take
 
into
 
account
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmissions
 
between
 
the
 
various
 
ITC
 
agreement
 
countries.
 
ITC
 
compensation
 
can
 
represent
 
both
 
an
 
income
 
and
a
 
cost
 
for
 
a
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator.
 
Fingrid’s
 
share
 
of
 
the
 
ITC
 
compensation
 
is
 
determined
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
cross-border
 
electricity
transmissions
 
and
 
imputed
 
grid
 
losses.
 
ITC
 
compensation
 
is
 
invoiced
 
retroactively
 
after
 
all
 
parties
 
to
 
the
 
ITC
 
agreement
 
have
 
approved
 
the
 
invoiced
sums.
 
Control
 
is
 
carried
 
out
 
monthly.
 
This
 
is
 
why
 
the
 
ITC
 
compensations
 
for
 
the
 
months
 
that
 
have
 
not
 
been
 
invoiced
 
yet
 
have
 
been
 
estimated
 
in
 
the
financial
 
statements.
 
The
 
estimate
 
has
 
been
 
made
 
using
 
actual
 
energy
 
border
 
transmissions
 
in
 
Finland
 
and

which
 
have

Cost
 
increases
 
due
 
to
 
new
 
tasks
 
and
 
external
 
changes
 
on
 
the
 
electricity
 
market
 
affecting
 
operations
 
has
 
been
 
a
 
special
 
characteristic
 
of
 
grid
operations
 
in
 
recent
 
years.
 
The
 
new
 
tasks
 
include
 
the
 
changes
 
required
 
by
 
the
 
European
 
network
 
codes
 
and
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
developing
 
these
 
tasks
and
 
developing
 
the
 
Nordic
 
imbalance
 
settlement
 
and
 
the
 
related
 
markets.
 
Some
 
of
 
the
 
new
 
tasks
 
and
 
responsibilities
 
are
 
assigned
 
to
 
Fingrid
 
by
law,
 
which
 
means
 
the
 
company
 
must
 
increasingly
 
develop
 
and
 
back
 
up
 
its
 
operations.
 
The
 
cost
 
factors
 
also
 
include
 
the
 
expansion
 
and
 
increased
complexity
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
system,
 
society’s
 
increasing
 
dependency
 
on
 
the
 
electricity
 
system
 
and
 
needs
 
related
 
to
 
information
 
security,
 
as
 
well
 
as
the
 
preparation
 
and
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
extensive
 
investment
 
programme.
 
Fingrid
 
continues
 
to
 
be
 
one
 
of
 
the
 
most
 
cost-effective
TSOs
 
in
 
the
 
world
 
in
 
international
 
benchmark
 
studies.
 
Another
 
indication
 
of
 
high
 
productivity
 
is
 
the
 
fact
 
that
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
been
 
able
 
to
 
respond
to
 
the
 
rapid
 
change
 
in
 
the
 
operating
 
environment
 
and
 
the
 
expansion
 
of
 
the
 
power
 
system.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
cost
 
items
 
are
 
the
 
imbalance
 
power
procurement,
 
reserve
 
costs
 
and
 
loss
 
power
 
costs.
Reserves
 
are
 
needed
 
to
 
maintain
 
the
 
grid’s
 
frequency
 
and
 
system
 
security.
 
Reserve
 
obligations
 
are
 
determined
 
on
 
the
 
Nordic
 
level
 
for
 
the
 
TSOs.
The
 
electricity
 
market
 
participants
 
plan
 
in
 
advance
 
the
 
balance
 
of
 
their
 
consumption
 
and
 
production,
 
but
 
the
 
balancing
 
of
 
deviations
 
during
 
the
delivery
 
hour
 
requires
 
reserves,
 
which
 
Fingrid
 
acquires
 
from
 
the
 
markets
 
it
 
maintains.
 
Reserves
 
refer
 
to
 
power
 
plants,
 
demand
 
facilities
 
and
 
energy
storage
 
facilities,
 
which
 
are
 
able
 
to
 
adjust
 
their
 
electric
 
power
 
as
 
needed.
 
There
 
are
 
many
 
types
 
of
 
reserves,
 
and
 
they
 
are
 
divided
 
up
 
based
 
on
 
their
purpose.
 
Loss
 
power
 
costs
 
arise
 
based
 
on
 
transmission
 
losses
 
in
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
and
 
the
 
price
 
of
 
electricity.
 
The
 
company
 
hedges
 
against
 
the
 
cost
 
of
 
procuring
loss
 
power
 
with
 
derivatives.

Credit
 
risk
 
in
 
purchasing
The
 
heads
 
of
 
functions
 
are
 
responsible
 
for
 
managing
 
the
 
counterparty
 
risks
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
company’s
 
service
 
and
 
equipment
 
suppliers.
 
The
procurement
 
policy
 
and
 
guidelines,
 
and
 
separate
 
instructions
 
set
 
out
 
the
 
guarantees
 
and
 
financial
 
eligibility
 
criteria
 
required
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
suppliers
and
 
their
 
monitoring.
General
 
procurement
 
principles
 
The
 
Group
 
follows
 
three
 
alternative
 
procurement
 
methods
 
when
 
purchasing
 
goods
 
or
 
services.
 
When
 
the
 
value
 
of
 
the
 
purchase
 
is
 
less
 
than
 
60,000
euros
 
and
 
the
 
benefits
 
of
 
a
 
competitive
 
tender
 
are
 
smaller
 
than
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
the
 
purchase,
 
the
 
purchase
 
can
 
be
 
executed
 
without
 
a
 
competitive
tender
 
or
 
it
 
can
 
be
 
executed
 
through
 
an
 
oral
 
request.
 
A
 
written
 
order
 
or
 
purchasing
 
agreement
 
is
 
always
 
drawn
 
up.
 
When
 
the
 
estimated
 
value
 
of
 
the
procurement
 
exceeds
 
60,000
 
euros
 
but
 
is
 
below
 
the
 
threshold
 
values
 
applied
 
to
 
public
 
procurements,
 
the
 
procurement
 
is
 
subject
 
to
 
competitive
bidding
 
by
 
requesting
 
written
 
bids
 
from
 
the
 
supplier
 
candidates.
 
When
 
the
 
public
 
procurement
 
threshold
 
values
 
that
 
apply
 
to
 
Fingrid
 
(in
 
2024:
 
EUR
443,000
 
for
 
goods
 
and
 
services,
 
EUR
 
5,538,000
 
for
 
construction
 
projects,
 
EUR
 
443,000
 
for
 
design
 
competitions
 
and
 
EUR
 
5,538,000
 
for
 
right-of-use
agreements)
 
are
 
exceeded,
 
the
 
company
 
follows
 
the
 
public
 
procurement
 
legislation
 
applied
 
to
 
special
 
sectors.

Inventories
Fingrid
 
prepares
 
for
 
outages
 
by
 
owning
 
and
 
maintaining
 
reserve
 
power
 
plants.
 
The
 
inventories
 
contain
 
fuel
 
for
 
reserve
 
power
 
plants,
 
spare
 
parts
 
for
submarine
 
cables,
 
back-up
 
equipment
 
and
 
parts
 
for
 
substations,
 
and
 
repair
 
equipment
 
for
 
transmission
 
lines.
 
The
 
aim
 
of
 
stockpiling
 
is
 
to
 
achieve
sufficient
 
preparedness
 
at
 
the
 
substations
 
and
 
on
 
the
 
transmission
 
lines
 
owned
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
in
 
case
 
of
 
faults
 
and
 
events
 
possibly
 
occurring
 
during

4.7
 
 
Management
 
of
 
commodity
 
risks
The
 
company
 
is
 
exposed
 
to
 
electricity
 
price
 
and
 
volume
 
risk
 
through
 
transmission
 
losses
 
so
 
that
 
the
 
company
 
must
 
acquire
 
so-called
 
loss
 
power
 
in
an
 
amount
 
corresponding
 
to
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
losses.
 
A
 
deviation
 
from
 
the
 
predicted
 
loss
 
power
 
costs
 
can
 
result
 
in
 
a
 
deviation
 
in
 
the
company’s
 
turnover
 
and
 
operating
 
profit.
 
This
 
can
 
be
 
a
 
surplus
 
or
 
deficit
 
in
 
relation
 
to
 
the
 
allowed
 
reasonable
 
return
 
for
 
the
 
year
 
in
 
question.
 
The
company
 
will
 
aim
 
to
 
offset
 
this
 
during
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period.
Loss
 
power
 
purchases
 
and
 
the
 
price
 
hedging
 
thereof
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
Corporate
 
Finance
 
Principles
 
approved
 
by
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors.
 
The
physical
 
loss
 
power
 
is
 
procured
 
from
 
the
 
NordPool
 
power
 
exchange
 
at
 
the
 
day’s
 
market
 
price.
 
The
 
price
 
risk
 
of
 
loss
 
power
 
procurement
 
is
 
hedged
with
 
electricity
 
derivatives.
 
The
 
purpose
 
of
 
price
 
hedging
 
is
 
to
 
reduce
 
the
 
impact
 
of
 
market
 
price
 
volatility
 
and
 
enable
 
sufficient
 
predictability
 
for
 
loss
power
 
cost.
 
The
 
hedging
 
service
 
is
 
outsourced
 
to
 
an
 
external
 
portfolio
 
manager
 
who
 
decides
 
on
 
the
 
implementation
 
and
 
timing
 
of
 
the
 
hedge
according
 
to
 
the
 
specifications
 
of
 
the
 
loss
 
power
 
policy
 
and
 
the
 
given
 
instructions.
 
The
 
portfolio
 
manager
 
implements
 
the
 
hedge
 
with
 
an
 
OTC
counterparty
 
either
 
directly
 
or
 
via
 
the
 
power
 
exchange.
 
The
 
purchase
 
price
 
of
 
loss
 
power
 
is
 
hedged
 
using
 
derivatives
 
such
 
that
 
the
 
hedge
 
horizon
 
is
four
 
years
 
at
 
maximum.
 
The
 
price
 
hedging
 
is
 
implemented
 
with
 
listed
 
futures
 
and
 
forward
 
contracts,
 
including
 
OTC
 
forwards,
 
which
 
did
 
not
 
include
collateral
 
requirements
 
in
 
2024.
 
The
 
counterparty
 
risk
 
of
 
bilateral
 
contracts
 
is
 
managed
 
with
 
counterparty-specific
 
limits.
 
Commodity
 
risks
 
other
 
than
 
those
 
related
 
to
 
loss
 
energy
 
purchases
 
arise
 
if
 
the
 
company
 
enters
 
into
 
purchasing
 
agreements
 
in
 
which
 
the
 
price
 
of
 
the
underlying
 
commodity
 
influences
 
the
 
final
 
price
 
of
 
the
 
investment
 
commodity
 
(commodity
 
price
 
risk).
 
The
 
company
 
uses
 
derivatives
 
to
 
hedge
against
 
commodity
 
price
 
risks
 
to
 
the
 
extent
 
that
 
the
 
hedging
 
instruments
 
of
 
the
 
risk
 
in
 
question
 
are
 
cost-effectively
 
available
 
and
 
the
 
risk
 
cannot
otherwise
 
be
 
hedged.
A
 
summary
 
of
 
the
 
derivatives
 
is
 
presented

The
 
company
 
has
 
only
 
defined
 
contribution-based
 
pension
 
schemes.
 
A
 
defined
 
contribution-based
 
pension
 
arrangement
 
refers
 
to
 
a
 
pension
scheme
 
according
 
to
 
which
 
fixed
 
contributions
 
are
 
paid
 
into
 
a
 
separate
 
entity,
 
and
 
the
 
Group
 
bears
 
no
 
legal
 
or
 
actual
 
obligation
 
to
 
make
 
additional
contributions
 
if
 
the
 
fund
 
does
 
not
 
contain
 
sufficient
 
funds
 
to
 
pay
 
out
 
benefits
 
based
 
on
 
work
 
performed
 
during
 
current
 
and
 
previous
 
financial
 
periods
to
 
all
 
employees.
 
Under
 
defined
 
contribution-based
 
pension
 
schemes,
 
the
 
Group
 
pays
 
mandatory,
 
contractual
 
or
 
voluntary
 
contributions
 
into
publicly
 
or
 
privately
 
managed
 
pension
 
insurance
 
policies.
 
The
 
Group
 
has
 
no
 
other
 
contribution
 
obligations
 
in
 
addition
 
to
 
those
 
payments.
 
The
payments
 
are
 
entered
 
as
 
personnel
 
costs
 
when
 
they
 
fall
 
due.
 
Advance
 
payments
 
are
 
entered
 
in
 
the
 
balance
 
sheet
 
as
 
assets
 
insofar
 
as
 
they
 
are
recoverable
 
as
 
refunds
 
or
 
deductions
 
from
 
future
 
payments.

Taxes
The
 
company
 
will
 
pay
 
its
 
income
 
taxes
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
underlying
 
tax
 
rate,
 
without
 
special
 
tax
 
arrangements.

LONG-TERM
 
INVESTOR
Chapter
 
five
 
focusses
 
on
 
Fingrid’s
 
assets,
 
and
 
above
 
all,
 
the
 
most
 
important
 
ones:
 
grid
 
assets
 
and
 
factors
 
affecting
 
them.
The
 
chapter
 
takes
 
a
 
look
 
at
 
the
 
company’s
 
goodwill
 
and
 
provides
 
a
 
description
 
of
 
other
 
property,
 
plant
 
and
 
equipment,
 
and
intangible
 
assets.
5.1
 
Grid
 
assets
The
 
company’s
 
total
 
capital
 
expenditure
 
in
 
2024
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
520.9
 
(322.0)
 
million.
 
This
 
included
 
a
 
total
 
of
 
EUR
 
491.8
 
(303.8)
 
million
 
invested
in
 
the
 
transmission
 
grid
 
and
 
EUR
 
8.3
 
(2.8)
 
million
 
for
 
reserve
 
power.
 
ICT
 
investments
 
amounted
 
to
 
EUR
 
20.8
 
(15.4)
 
million.
 
A
 
total
 
of
 
EUR
 
3.1
 
(2.4)
million
 
was
 
used
 
for
 
R&D
 
projects
 
during
 
the
 
year
 
under
 
review.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
completed
 
25
 
power
 
system
 
substations
 
and
 
331
 
kilometres
 
of
transmission
 
lines.
Grid
 
assets
 
are
 
recognised
 
at
 
fair
 
value
 
for
 
the
 
purposes
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
regulatory
 
balance
 
sheet.
 
The
 
regulatory
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
the
 
transmission
network
 
assets
 
(adjusted
 
replacement
 
cost)
 
is
 
calculated
 
by
 
adding
 
up
 
the
 
adjusted
 
replacement
 
costs
 
for
 
each
 
grid
 
component;
 
these
 
are
calculated
 
by
 
multiplying
 
the
 
unit
 
price
 
specified
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
with
 
the
 
number
 
of
 
grid
 
components.
 
When
 
calculating
 
the
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
the
main
 
grid
 
in
 
2024,
 
the
 
unit
 
prices
 
from
 
2022
 
are
 
used
 
for
 
grid
 
components
 
completed
 
before
 
2024,
 
as
 
per
 
the
 
regulatory
 
method.
 
For
 
grid
components
 
completed
 
in
 
2024,
 
the
 
company
 
uses
 
an
 
estimate
 
of
 
the
 
unit
 
prices
 
for
 
the
 
grid
 
components
 
for
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period
 
2024–2027,
which
 
will
 
be
 
confirmed
 
later
 
during
 
the
 
regulatory
 
period.
 
The
 
adjusted
 
present
 
value
 
in
 
use
 
for
 
a
 
grid
 
component
 
is
 
calculated
 
based
 
on
 
the
adjusted
 
replacement
 
cost,
 
using
 
the
 
useful
 
life
 
and
 
mean
 
lifetime
 
data
 
of
 
the
 
grid
 
component.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Congestion
 
income
Congestion
 
income
 
is
 
generated
 
because
 
of
 
an
 
insufficient
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
between
 
the
 
bidding
 
zones
 
of
 
an
 
electricity
 
exchange.
 
In
 
such
cases,
 
the
 
bidding
 
zones
 
become
 
separate
 
price
 
areas,
 
and
 
the
 
transmission
 
link
 
joining
 
them
 
generates
 
congestion
 
income
 
in
 
the
 
electricity
exchange
 
as
 
follows:
 
congestion
 
income
 
[€/h]
 
=
 
transmission
 
volume
 
in
 
the
 
day-ahead
 
markets
 
[MW]
 
*
 
area
 
price
 
difference
 
[€/MWh].
 
The
 
basis
 
for
this
 
is
 
that
 
a
 
seller
 
operating
 
in
 
a
 
lower
 
priced
 
area
 
receives
 
less
 
for
 
their
 
power
 
than
 
what
 
a
 
buyer
 
pays
 
for
 
it
 
in
 
a
 
higher
 
priced
 
area.
 
The
 
additional
income
 
caused
 
by
 
this
 
price
 
difference,
 
i.e.
 
congestion
 
income,
 
remains
 
in
 
the
 
electricity
 
exchange,
 
which
 
then
 
pays
 
the
 
income
 
to
 
the
 
TSOs
 
as
 
per
the
 
contractual
 
terms.
 
Finland
 
is
 
a
 
single
 
price
 
area
 
and
 
congestion
 
income
 
is
 
not
 
generated
 
from
 
the
 
internal
 
transmission
 
connections.
 
The
congestion
 
income
 
received
 
by
 
a
 
grid
 
owner
 
must
 
be
 
used
 
for
 
the
 
purposes
 
stated
 
in
 
EU
 
Regulation
 
2019/943,
 
Article
 
19:
 
guaranteeing
 
the
 
actual
availability
 
of
 
the
 
allocated
 
capacity,
 
maintaining
 
or
 
increasing
 
interconnection
 
capacities
 
through
 
network
 
investments,
 
covering
 
the
 
costs
 
of
maintaining
 
said
 
capacity,
 
and
 
recognising
 
congestion
 
income
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
turnover.
 
The
 
long-term
 
transmission
 
rights
 
(LTTR)
 
adopted
 
between
 
Finland
 
and
 
Estonia
 
are
 
Financial
 
Transmission
 
Rights
 
(FTR)
 
from
 
Finland
 
to
 
Estonia,
which
 
are
 
issued
 
by
 
the
 
transmission
 
system
 
operators
 
and
 
cleared
 
financially.
 
The
 
underlying
 
asset
 
of
 
FTRs
 
is
 
the
 
price
 
difference
 
between
 
the
Finnish
 
and
 
Estonian
 
price
 
areas.
 
The
 
FTRs
 
are
 
offered
 
as
 
yearly
 
and
 
monthly
 
products
 
and
 
cover
 
roughly
 
two
 
thirds
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
capacity
 
between
 
Finland
 
and
 
Estonia.
 
The
 
owner
 
of
 
an
 
FTR
 
is
 
entitled
 
to
 
receive
 
a
 
payment
 
when
 
the
 
price
 
difference
 
is
 
positive
 
in
 
the

STRONG

Chapter
 
six
 
describes
 
how
 
Fingrid’s
 
financing
 
is
 
formed
 
and
 
the
 
related
 
risk
 
management.
 
The
 
chapter
 
also
 
presents
 
how
short-term
 
financial
 
assets
 
that
 
maintain
 
liquidity
 
are
 
formed.
The
 
end
 
of
 
the
 
chapter
 
contains
 
a
 
summary
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
assets
 
and
 
financing
 
liabilities,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
derivatives,
 
that
 
the
company
 
uses
 
exclusively
 
for
 
risk
 
management
 
purposes.
 
The
 
risks
 
relate
 
to
 
various
 
market
 
risks,
 
i.e.
 
the
 
electricity
 
and
commodity
 
price
 
risk
 
and
 
the
 
interest
 
rate
 
and
 
exchange
 
rate
 
risk.
 
Management
 
of
 
the
 
electricity
 
price
 
and
 
volume
 
risk
 
is
described
 
in
 
chapter
 
4.7.
 
The
 
chapter
 
describes
 
the
 
company’s
 
principles
 
of
 
capital
 
management,
 
ownership
 
structure
 
and
 
dividend
 
distribution
policy.
6.1
 
Capital
 
management
Equity
 
and
 
liabilities
 
as
 
shown
 
in
 
the
 
balance
 
sheet
 
are
 
managed
 
by
 
Fingrid
 
as
 
capital.
The
 
company
 
must
 
have
 
a
 
capital
 
structure
 
to
 
support
 
consistently
 
strong
 
credit
 
ratings,
 
reasonable
 
cost
 
of
 
capital
 
and
 
adequate
 
dividend
 
pay-out
capability.
 
The
 
principal
 
aim
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
capital
 
management
 
and
 
grid
 
asset
 
management
 
is
 
to
 
ensure
 
uninterrupted
 
operations
 
and
 
value
 
retention
as
 
well
 
as
 
rapid
 
recovery
 
from
 
any
 
exceptional
 
circumstances.
The
 
company
 
aims
 
for
 
a
 
category
 
‘A’
 
credit
 
rating.
 
The
 
rating
 
must
 
be
 
at
 
least
 
‘A-’
 
from
 
two
 
credit
 
rating
 
agencies.
 
The
 
company
 
has
 
not
 
set
 
specific
key
 
financial
 
ratio
 
targets
 
for
 
accounting
 
balance
 
sheet
 
or
 
regulatory
 
balance
 
sheet
 
capital
 
management,
 
but
 
instead
 
monitors
 
and
 
controls
 
the
overall
 
situation,
 
for
 
which
 
credit
 
ratings
 
and
 
their
 
underlying
 
risk
 
analyses
 
and
 
other
 
parameters
 
create
 
a
 
foundation.
The
 
company’s
 
credit
 
rating
 
remained
 
high
 
in
 
2024.
 
This
 
reflects
 
the
 
company’s
 
strong
 
overall
 
financial
 
situation,
 
its
 
key
 
role
 
as
 
an
 
implementer
 
of
climate
 
targets,
 
and
 
its
 
debt
 
service
 
capacity.
 
Fingrid

The
 
organisation
 
of
 
financing
 
activities
 
and
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
financial
 
risk
 
management
The
 
company
 
has
 
a
 
holistic
 
approach
 
to
 
the
 
management
 
of
 
financing
 
activities,
 
encompassing
 
external
 
financing,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
managing
 
liquidity,
counterparty
 
and
 
financial
 
risks,
 
and
 
supporting
 
business
 
operations
 
in
 
matters
 
related
 
to
 
financing
 
in
 
general.
Fingrid’s
 
financial
 
capital
 
consists
 
of
 
equity
 
and

financing.
 
The

The
 
key
 
objectives
 
of
 
financing
 
operations
 
are
 
preservation
 
of
 
shareholder
 
value
 
by
 
securing
 
the
 
financing
 
required
 
by
 
business
 
operations,
including
 
the
 
investment
 
programme,
 
adequate
 
liquidity
 
and
 
protection
 
against
 
key
 
financing
 
risks
 
in
 
different
 
interest
 
rate
 
scenarios.
 
This
contributes
 
to
 
increasing
 
the
 
predictability
 
of
 
interest
 
expenses
 
and
 
securing
 
the
 
payment
 
of
 
dividends
 
within
 
the
 
risk
 
limits,
 
including
 
the
 
overall
management
 
of
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk,
 
considering
 
Fingrid’s
 
regulatory
 
model.
Fingrid’s
 
financing
 
risks
 
consist
 
of
 
liquidity,
 
refinancing,
 
interest
 
rate,
 
foreign
 
exchange
 
and
 
commodity
 
price
 
risks,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
counterparty
 
risks
of
 
investments
 
and
 
derivative
 
contracts.
 
The
 
derivative
 
instruments
 
used
 
for
 
hedging
 
are
 
approved
 
annually
 
in
 
the
 
Treasury
 
Policy.
 
The
 
company
uses
 
derivative
 
instruments
 
to
 
hedge
 
interest
 
rate,
 
foreign
 
exchange
 
and
 
commodity
 
risks.
 
Derivatives
 
are
 
only
 
used
 
for
 
hedging
 
purposes,
 
not
speculatively.

Financial
 
liabilities,
 
financial
 
costs
 
and
 
managing
 
the
 
financial
 
risks
The
 
company
 
takes
 
advantage
 
of
 
the
 
opportunities
 
offered
 
by
 
credit
 
ratings
 
at
 
any
 
given
 
time
 
in
 
multiple
 
ways
 
on
 
the
 
international
 
and
 
domestic
financial
 
markets.
 
Market-based
 
and
 
diversified
 
financing
 
is
 
sought
 
from
 
several
 
sources.
 
The
 
goal
 
is
 
a
 
diversified
 
maturity
 
profile.
 
Fingrid’s
 
existing
loan
 
agreements
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
debt
 
and
 
commercial
 
paper
 
programmes
 
are
 
unsecured
 
and
 
do
 
not
 
include
 
any
 
financial
 
covenants
 
based
 
on

Green
 
financing
Green
 
financing
 
is
 
a
 
key
 
component
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
financing
 
strategy
 
and
 
responsible
 
operating
 
model.
 
The
 
company’s
 
goal
 
is
 
to
 
raise
 
significant
 
debt
financing
 
in
 
the
 
form
 
of
 
green
 
financing.
 
In
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
issued
 
two
 
EUR
 
500
 
million
 
green
 
bonds
 
and
 
raised
 
short-term
 
financing
 
within
 
a
 
Green
Euro
 
Commercial
 
Paper
 
Programme.
 
The
 
company
 
reports
 
on

Managing

Fingrid’s

are
 
issued
 
in
 
both
 
fixed
 
and
floating
 
interest
 
rates
 
and
 
in
 
several
 
currencies.
 
They
 
thus
 
expose
 
Fingrid’s
 
cash
 
flow
 
to
 
interest
 
rate
 
and
 
exchange
 
rate
 
risks.
 
Fingrid
 
uses
derivative
 
contracts
 
to
 
hedge
 
against
 
these
 
risks.
 
Fingrid
 
generally
 
holds
 
issued
 
bonds
 
to
 
maturity
 
and
 
thus
 
does
 
not
 
value
 
its
 
bonds
 
in
 
the

or

risks
 
related

company
 
uses
 
derivatives
 
to
 
fully
 
hedge
 
against
 
exchange
 
rate
 
risks
 
when
 
it
 
is
 
cost-effective
 
to
 
do
 
so
 
and
 
against
 
commodity
 
price
 
risks
 
to
 
the
extent
 
that
 
the
 
hedging
 
instruments
 
of
 
the
 
risk
 
in
 
question
 
are
 
cost-effectively
 
available
 
and
 
hedging
 
cannot
 
otherwise
 
be
 
implemented,
 
for
 
instance,
through
 
contracts.
 
During
 
the
 
financial
 
year,
 
the
 
company
 
used
 
currency
 
and
 
metal
 
derivatives
 
to
 
hedge
 
business
 
transaction
 
risks.
 
A
 
summary
 
of
the
 
derivatives
 
is
 
presented
 
in
 
Note

Interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
The
 
company
 
is
 
only
 
exposed
 
to
 
euro
 
denominated
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
from
 
its
 
business
 
operations,
 
assets
 
and
 
borrowings.
 
The
 
company’s
borrowings
 
are,
 
both
 
in
 
terms
 
of
 
principal
 
and
 
interest
 
payments,
 
fully
 
hedged
 
against
 
exchange
 
rate
 
risks.
 
Cash
 
and
 
cash
 
equivalents
 
and
 
financial
assets
 
recognised
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement
 
at
 
fair
 
value
 
are
 
denominated
 
in
 
euros.
 
The
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
inherent
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
is
 
caused
 
by
 
changes
 
in
 
the
 
risk-free
 
interest
 
in
 
the
 
WACC
 
model.
 
If
 
the
 
risk-free
 
interest
 
rate
rises/falls
 
by
 
one
 
percentage
 
unit,
 
the
 
pre-tax
 
WACC
 
rises/falls
 
by
 
1.15
 
percentage
 
units.
The
 
goal
 
of
 
the
 
loan
 
portfolio’s
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
management
 
is
 
to
 
hedge
 
against
 
key
 
financing
 
risks
 
in
 
different
 
interest
 
rate
 
scenarios
 
and
 
to
contribute
 
to
 
increasing
 
the
 
predictability
 
of
 
interest
 
expenses
 
and
 
secure
 
the
 
payment
 
of
 
dividends
 
within
 
the
 
risk
 
limits,
 
including
 
the
 
overall
management
 
of
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk,
 
considering
 
the
 
regulatory
 
model.
 
The
 
loan
 
portfolio’s
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
arises
 
from
 
market
 
interest
 
rate
 
volatility,
which
 
decreases
 
or
 
increases
 
the
 
annual
 
interest
 
expenses
 
on
 
the
 
company’s
 
floating-rate
 
loans.
 
When
 
market
 
interest
 
rates
 
increase/decrease,
the
 
interest
 
expenses
 
of
 
the
 
floating-rate
 
loans
 
also
 
increase/decrease.
 
The
 
company
 
hedges
 
this
 
risk,
 
referred
 
to
 
as
 
cash
 
flow
 
risk,
 
with
 
derivatives.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Determination
 
of
 
the
 
reasonable
 
rate
 
of
 
return
 
in
 
regulation
 
and
 
operational
 
interest
 
rate
 
risk
 
The
 
reasonable
 
rate
 
of
 
return
 
on
 
adjusted
 
capital
 
committed
 
to
 
grid
 
operations
 
is
 
determined
 
by
 
using
 
the
 
weighted
 
average
 
cost
 
of
 
capital
 
model
(WACC).
 
The
 
WACC
 
model
 
determined
 
by
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
illustrates
 
the
 
average
 
cost
 
of
 
the
 
capital
 
used
 
by
 
the
 
company,
 
where
 
the
weights
 
are
 
the
 
relative
 
values
 
of
 
equity
 
and
 
debt.
 
The
 
weighted
 
average
 
of
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
equity
 
and
 
interest-bearing
 
debt
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
calculate
 
the
total
 
cost
 
of
 
capital,
 
i.e.
 
the
 
reasonable
 
rate
 
of
 
return
 
per
 
the
 
regulation.
 
The
 
reasonable
 
return
 
is
 
calculated
 
by
 
multiplying
 
the
 
adjusted
 
capital
invested
 
in
 
network
 
operations
 
by
 
the
 
WACC.
 
Liquidity
 
risk
Fingrid
 
is
 
exposed
 
to
 
liquidity
 
and
 
refinancing
 
risks
 
arising
 
from
 
the
 
redemption
 
of
 
loans,
 
payments
 
and
 
fluctuations
 
in
 
cash
 
flow
 
from
 
operating
activities.
 
The
 
liquidity
 
of
 
the
 
company
 
is
 
arranged
 
so
 
that
 
liquid
 
assets
 
(cash
 
and
 
cash
 
equivalents,
 
and
 
financial
 
assets
 
recognised
 
in
 
the
 
income
statement
 
at
 
fair
 
value)
 
and
 
available
 
long-term
 
committed
 
credit
 
lines
 
can
 
cover
 
110%
 
of
 
the
 
refinancing
 
needs
 
for
 
the
 
next
 
12
 
months.
 
The
 
company
 
has
 
a
 
revolving
 
credit
 
facility
 
of
 
EUR
 
500
 
million
 
maturing
 
30
 
November
 
2028.
 
The
 
company
 
raised
 
the
 
revolving
 
credit
 
facility
 
from
EUR
 
300
 
million
 
to
 
EUR
 
500
 
million
 
in
 
2024.
 
The
 
facility
 
is
 
committed
 
and
 
has
 
not
 
been
 
drawn.
 
Additionally,
 
the
 
company
 
has
 
at
 
its
 
disposal
 
a
 
total
of
 
EUR
 
90
 
million
 
in
 
overdraft
 
limits
 
with
 
banks
 
to
 
secure
 
liquidity.
Refinancing
 
risk
 
is
 
managed
 
by
 
aiming
 
to
 
build
 
a
 
diversified
 
loan
 
maturity
 
profile.
 
The
 
maturity
 
profile’s
 
target
 
is
 
for
 
long-term
 
loans
 
in
 
a
 
single
 
year
to
 
account
 
for
 
less
 
than
 
30
 
per
 
cent
 
of
 
total
 
debt
 
and
 
the
 
average
 
maturity
 
of
 
the
 
company’s
 
loan
 
portfolio
 
to
 
be
 
at
 
least
 
three
 
years.
 
To
 
secure
refinancing,
 
the
 
company
 
makes
 
wide
 
use
 
of
 
various
 
sources
 
of
 
financing
The
 
counterparty
 
risks
 
of
 
financing
 
activities
 
are
 
caused
 
by
 
asset
 
management
 
companies,
 
derivatives
 
counterparties,
 
insurance
 
companies
 
and
bank
 
counterparties.
 
The
 
company
 
minimises
 
any
 
counterparty
 
risks
 
and
 
can,
 
if
 
necessary,
 
demand
 
guarantees
 
from
 
counterparties
 
to
 
strengthen
its
 
risk
 
position.
 
As
 
a
 
rule,
 
credit
 
rating
 
categories
 
are
 
the
 
decisive
 
factor
 
in
 
specifying
 
the
 
counterparty
 
limit.
Contractual
 
repayments
 
and

on

Classification
 
of
 
financial
 
assets
 
and
 
liabilities
The
 
Group
 
classifies
 
the
 
financial
 
assets
 
and
 
liabilities
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
its
 
business
 
model
 
and
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
IFRS
 
9.
The
 
classification
 
is
 
accomplished
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
objective
 
of
 
the
 
business
 
model
 
and
 
the
 
contract-based
 
cash
 
flows
 
from
 
the
 
investments.
 
Bonds
 
held
 
to
 
maturity
 
and
 
cash
 
and
 
cash
 
equivalents
 
have
 
mainly
 
been
 
measured
 
at
 
amortised
 
cost.
 
This
 
reflects
 
a
 
business
 
model
 
whose
objective
 
is
 
to
 
collect
 
contract-based
 
cash
 
flows.

can
 
be
 
netted

The

that

The
 
derivative
 
transactions
 
hedging
 
the
 
company’s
 
loan
 
portfolio
 
consist
 
of
 
interest
 
rate
 
and
 
cross
 
currency
 
swaps
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
purchased
 
cap
options,
 
which
 
serve
 
to
 
hedge
 
most
 
of
 
the
 
loan
 
portfolio
 
from
 
a
 
sudden
 
change
 
in
 
short-term
 
interest
 
rates.
 
During
 
the
 
financial
 
year,
 
the
 
company
used
 
currency
 
and
 
metal
 
derivatives
 
to
 
hedge
 
business
 
transaction
 
risks.
 
Currency
 
derivatives
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
fix
 
the
 
exchange
 
rate
 
for
 
non-euro-
denominated
 
contracts
 
related
 
to
 
business
 
operations.
 
Electricity
 
derivatives
 
are
 
designed
 
to
 
hedge
 
the
 
price
 
risk
 
of
 
future
 
loss
 
power
 
purchases.
Metal
 
derivatives
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
hedge
 
against
 
the
 
metal
 
price
 
risk
 
arising
 
from
 
purchases
 
insofar
 
as
 
it
 
cannot
 
otherwise
 
be
 
managed,
 
typically
 
with
fixed
 
contracts
 
between
 
the
 
supplier
 
and
 
client.
 
The
 
management
 
of
 
electricity
 
price
 
risk

in
 
chapter
 
4.7.
The

model.
 
The

parameters
 
of
 
the

are
 
the
 
3-month

6-month
 
Euribor

forward-looking
 
simulation
 
of
 
the
 
probable
 
future
 
interest

for
 
Fingrid’s
 
loan
 
portfolio.
 
The
exposure
 
on
 
which
 
the
 
sensitivity
 
analysis
 
is
 
calculated
 
includes
 
all
 
of
 
the
 
Group’s
 
interest-bearing
 
borrowings,
 
the
 
loan
 
portfolio’s
 
derivatives
 
and
interest-rate
 
options
 
purchased
 
to
 
hedge
 
against
 
unexpected
 
changes
 
in
 
interest
 
rates.
 
According
 
to
 
the
 
model,
 
there
 
is
 
a
 
95%
 
probability
 
that
Fingrid’s
 
interest
 
expenses
 
will
 
amount
 
to
 
a
 
maximum
 
of
 
EUR
 
60.7
 
million

on
 
the

change
 
in

rates
 
between
 
the

was
 
EUR
 
38.6
 
negative
 
(EUR

negative).
 
The
 
volatility
 
in
 
the
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
electricity
 
derivatives
 
can
 
be
 
significant.
 
The
 
negative
impact
 
on

resulted
 
from
 
the
 
effect
 
of
 
lower
 
market

for

on
 
the
 
fair
 
value
 
of
 
the

subject
 
to
 
the
 
Board’s
 
decision
 
after
 
the
 
half-year
 
report
 
has
 
been
 
confirmed,
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
authorisation
 
given
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
in
 
the
 
Annual
 
General
Meeting.
 
The
 
Board
 
has
 
the
 
right
 
to
 
decide,
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
authorisation
 
granted
 
to
 
it,
 
on
 
the
 
payment
 
of
 
the
 
second
 
dividend
 
instalment
 
after
 
the
half-year
 
report
 
has
 
been
 
confirmed
 
and
 
it
 
has
 
assessed
 
the
 
company’s
 
solvency,
 
financial
 
position
 
and
 
financial
 
development.
 
The
 
dividends
 
that
have
 
been
 
decided
 
on
 
with
 
the
 
authorisation
 
given
 
to
 
the
 
Board
 
shall
 
be
 
paid
 
on
 
the
 
third
 
banking
 
day
 
after
 
the
 
decision.
 
It
 
will
 
be
 
proposed
 
that
 
the
authorisation
 
remains
 
valid
 
until
 
the
 
next
 
Annual
 
General
 
Meeting.
The
 
distributable
 
funds
 
are
 
calculated
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
parent
 
company’s
 
equity.
 
Dividends
 
are
 
paid
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
distributable
 
funds
 
of
 
the
 
parent
company.
 
The
 
guiding
 
principle
 
for
 
Fingrid’s
 
dividend
 
policy
 
is
 
to
 
distribute
 
substantially
 
all
 
of
 
the
 
parent
 
company
 
profit
 
as
 
dividends.
 
When
 
making
 
the
decision,
 
however,
 
the
 
economic
 
conditions,
 
the
 
company’s
 
near-term
 
capital
 
expenditure
 
and
 
development
 
needs
 
as

as
 
any

Accounting
 
principles
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Subsidiaries
The
 
subsidiaries
 
encompass
 
all
 
companies
 
over
 
which
 
the
 
Group
 
has
 
control.
 
The
 
Group
 
is
 
considered
 
to
 
have
 
control
 
over
 
a
 
company
 
if
 
the
Group’s
 
holding
 
results
 
in
 
exposure
 
to
 
variable
 
returns
 
or
 
if
 
the
 
Group
 
is
 
entitled
 
to
 
variable
 
returns
 
and
 
it
 
can
 
influence
 
these
 
returns
 
by
 
exercising
its
 
control
 
over
 
the
 
company.
 
The
 
subsidiaries
 
are
 
consolidated
 
into
 
the
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements
 
starting
 
from
 
the
 
day
 
on
 
which
 
the
 
Group
gained
 
control
 
over
 
the
 
company.
 
Consolidation
 
is
 
discontinued
 
once
 
the
 
control
 
ceases
 
to
 
exist.
Consolidation
 
of
 
operations
 
is
 
carried
 
out
 
using
 
acquisition
 
cost
 
method.
Transactions,
 
receivables
 
and
 
liabilities
 
between
 
Group
 
companies
 
and
 
any
 
unrealised
 
profits
 
from
 
internal
 
transactions
 
are
 
eliminated.
 
Unrealised
losses
 
are
 
also
 
eliminated
 
unless
 
the
 
transaction
 
indicates
 
an
 
impairment
 
of
 
the
 
disposed
 
asset.
 
If
 
necessary,
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
of
 
the
subsidiaries
 
have
 
been
 
adjusted
 
to
 
correspond
 
to
 
the
 
accounting
 
principles
 
applied
 
by
 
the
 
Group.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Associated
 
companies
The
 
associated
 
companies
 
include
 
all
 
companies
 
over
 
which
 
the
 
Group
 
has
 
significant
 
influence
 
but
 
no
 
control
 
or
 
joint
 
control.
 
This
 
is
 
generally
based
 
on
 
a
 
shareholding
 
amounting
 
to
 
20–50%
 
of
 
the
 
votes.
Investments
 
in
 
associated
 
companies
 
are
 
initially
 
recognised
 
at
 
the
 
acquisition
 
cost
 
and
 
subsequently
 
handled
 
using
 
the
 
equity
 
method.
 
According
to
 
the
 
equity
 
method,
 
investments
 
are
 
initially
 
recorded
 
at
 
the
 
acquisition
 
cost
 
and
 
this
 
is
 
subsequently
 
adjusted
 
by
 
recognising
 
the
 
Group’s
 
share
 
of
the
 
profit
 
or
 
loss
 
after
 
the
 
time
 
of
 
acquisition
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement
 
and
 
the
 
Group’s
 
share
 
of
 
any
 
changes
 
in
 
the
 
investment
 
object’s
 
other
comprehensive
 
income
 
in
 
other
 
comprehensive

Any
 
dividends
 
received
 
or
 
to
 
be
 
received
 
from
 
the
 
associated
 
companies
 
and
 
joint
 
ventures
are
 
deducted
 
from
 
the
 
investment’s
 
carrying
 
amount.

A
 
provision
 
is
 
recorded
 
when
 
the
 
Group
 
has
 
a
 
legal
 
or
 
factual
 
obligation
 
based
 
on
 
an
 
earlier
 
event
 
and
 
it
 
is
 
likely
 
that
 
fulfilling
 
the
 
obligation
 
will
require
 
a
 
payment,
 
and
 
the
 
amount
 
of
 
the
 
obligation
 
can
 
be
 
estimated
 
reliably.
The
 
provisions
 
are
 
valued
 
at
 
the
 
present
 
value
 
of
 
the
 
costs
 
required
 
to
 
cover
 
the
 
obligation.
 
The
 
discounting
 
factor
 
used
 
in
 
calculating
 
the
 
present
value
 
is
 
chosen
 
so
 
that
 
it

of
 
money
 
at
 
the

and
 
the
 
risks
 
pertaining
 
to
 
the
 
obligation.

Legal
 
proceedings
 
and
 
proceedigns
 
by
 
authorities
On
 
2
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
of
 
balance
 
service.
The
 
appeal
 
mainly
 
concerns
 
the
 
collateral
 
model
 
for
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties
 
presented
 
in
 
the
 
decision.
 
In
 
November
 
2023,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
issued
 
a
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
for
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties,
 
which
 
include
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
how
 
collateral
 
requirements
 
are
determined.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
includes
 
major
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
 
collateral
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
and
 
sets
 
apart
 
Finland’s
collateral
 
model
 
from
 
that
 
used
 
in
 
other
 
Nordic
 
countries.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
 
collateral
 
model
 
include
 
a
 
major
 
reduction
 
in
the
 
required
 
collaterals,
 
elimination
 
of
 
the
 
requirement
 
to
 
provide
 
an
 
adequate
 
additional
 
collateral
 
and
 
a
 
possible
 
collateral
 
ceiling.
On
 
29
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
methods
 
concerning
 
the
 
specification
 
of
the
 
profit
 
for
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations
 
for
 
the
 
sixth
 
regulatory
 
period
 
1
 
January
 
2024–31
 
December
 
2027
 
and
 
seventh
 
regulatory
period
 
1
 
January
 
2028–31
 
December
 
2031.
 
According
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
assessment,
 
the
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
is
 
a
 
significant
 
weakening
 
of
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations’
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
regulatory
 
method
 
that
 
expired
 
at
 
year-end.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
 
view,
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
impacts
 
in
 
preparing
 
the
 
regulatory
 
model
 
decision
 
has
 
been
 
deficient
 
and
 
there
 
are
 
still
 
issues
 
open
 
to
 
interpretation
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
presented
decision.
 
The
 
decision
 
weakens
 
Fingrid’s
 
ability
 
to
 
invest.
 
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
a
 
solution
 
that
 
would
 
also
 
enable
 
the
 
future
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
grid,
allowing
 
the
 
hundreds
 
of
 
billions
 
in
 
green
 
transition
 
investments
 
in
 
Finland
 
to
 
be
 
implemented
 
as
 
planned.
On
 
15
 
February
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
given
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
11
 
January
 
2024
 
on
 
the
 
scope
 
of
the
 
national
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
systems
 
responsibility
 
regarding
 
the
 
grid
 
connection
 
of
 
the
 
OL3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant.
 
Teollisuuden
Voima
 
Oyj
 
(“TVO”)
 
lodged
 
a
 
request
 
for
 
an
 
investigation
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
25
 
May
 
2022
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
claims
 
by
 
TVO
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
has
neglected
 
its
 
obligation
 
to
 
develop
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
as
 
stated
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act
 
and/or
 
other
 
applicable
 
legislation,
 
and
 
that,
 
as
 
a
result,
 
it
 
has
 
placed
 
unlawful
 
restrictions
 
on
 
connecting
 
the
 
Olkiluoto
 
3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant
 
to
 
the
 
grid,
 
and
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
its
administrative
 
obligations
 
linked
 
to
 
carrying
 
out
 
its
 
public
 
administrative
 
task.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
states
 
in
 
its
 
decision
 
of
 
11
 
January
 
2024
 
that
Fingrid
 
fulfilled
 
its
 
development,
 
connection
 
and
 
transmission
 
obligations
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
also
found
 
the
 
1,300
 
MW
 
power
 
limit
 
specified
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
connection
 
terms
 
justified
 
and
 
did
 
not
 
find
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
have
 
restricted
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
access
 
to
 
the
grid.
 
In
 
its
 
decision,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
sees,
 
however,
 
that
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
falls
 
under
 
Fingrid’s
 
responsibility
 
based
 
on
 
a
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
as
 
intended
 
by
 
legislation
 
and
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
Article
 
9
 
of
 
the
 
Commission
 
Regulation
(EU)
 
2017/1485
 
establishing
 
a
 
guideline
 
on
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
system
 
operation
 
and
 
its
 
obligation
 
in

with
 
Section
 
10,
 
Subsection
 
1
 
of
 
the
Act
 
on
 
the

it
 
applies
 
before
 
the
 
Energy
Authority
 
for
 
approval
 
prior
 
to
 
their
 
implementation.
 
In
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision,
 
Fingrid
 
submitted
 
its
 
proposal
 
concerning
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
related
 
to
 
the
OL3
 
protection
 
scheme
 
on
 
30

2024.
 
The
 
Energy

issued
 
its
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
on
 
30
 
December
 
2024.
According
 
to
 
the
 
decision,
 
TVO
 
shall
 
bear
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
reimbursements
 
to

and
 
for
 
the
construction,

The
 
decision
 
states
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
shall
 
bear
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
acquiring
 
the
response
 
resources
 
and
 
awarding
 
contracts,
 
managing
 
the

for

in

Fingrid
 
and
 
TVO
 
have
 
agreed
 
on
 
provisional
 
fee
 
arrangements
 
for
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
as
 
of
 
1
 
January
 
2025.
 
The
 
agreement
 
is
 
based
on
 
the
 
decision
 
issued
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
the
 
protection
 
scheme
 
on
 
30
 
December
 
2024.
 
The
 
provisional
 
fee
 
arrangements
 
for
the
 
protection
 
scheme
 
do
 
not
 
directly
 
affect
 
the
 
legal
 
proceedings
 
concerning
 
the
 
protection
 
scheme’s
 
extent,
 
which
 
are
 
still
 
ongoing
 
in
 
the
 
Market
Court.
Fingrid
 
received
 
an

for
 
the

In
 
the

meeting
 
for
 
the
 
expropriation
 
procedure
 
on
 
1
 
December
 
2022,
 
the

committee
 
decided
 
that
 
the

the
 
availability
 
of
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
flexibility
 
is
 
subject
 
to
 
uncertainty.
This,
 
coupled
 
with
 
growing
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
needs,
 
will
 
increase
 
the
 
costs
 
of
 
Fingrid’s
 
operations
 
and
 
the
 
uncertainty
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
costs
 
in
2025.
 
At
 
the
 
same
 
time,
 
fluctuations
 
in
 
the
 
national
 
power
 
balance
 
will
 
increase.
 
The
 
grid’s
 
connection
 
capability
 
will
 
be
 
affected
 
by
 
the
 
location
 
of
the
 
customer
 
projects
 
to
 
be
 
connected,
 
flexibility
 
in
 
electricity
 
production
 
and
 
consumption
 
and
 
changes
 
in
 
customer
 
needs.
 
The
 
company’s
 
financial
position
 
is
 
expected
 
to
 
remain
 
stable.
The
 
company’s
 
balance
 
sheet
 
contains
 
a
 
significant
 
amount
 
of
 
congestion
 
income,
 
mostly
 
from
 
2022
 
from
 
the
 
cross-border
 
links
 
between
 
Estonia
and
 
Finland
 
and
 
Sweden
 
and
 
Finland.
 
Also
 
going
 
forward,
 
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
to
 
use
 
congestion
 
income
 
actively
 
for
 
investments
 
that
 
will
 
increase
cross-border
 
transmission
 
capacity
 
and
 
to
 
cover
 
operating
 
costs
 
to
 
benefit
 
Fingrid’s
 
customers.
 
The
 
use
 
of
 
congestion
 
income
 
is
 
decided
 
by
 
the
Energy
 
Authority
 
based
 
on
 
an
 
EU
 
regulation.
Concerning
 
the
 
damage
 
to
 
the
 
EstLink2
 
submarine
 
cables,
 
the
 
maritime
 
court
 
ordered,
 
on
 
3
 
January
 
2025,
 
the
 
seizure
 
of
 
the
 
vessel
 
suspected
 
of
causing
 
the
 
damage,
 
Eagle
 
S,
 
to
 
secure
 
the
 
claims
 
of
 
Fingrid
 
and
 
the
 
other
 
parties
 
applying
 
to
 
the
 
court
 
for
 
the
 
seizure.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
decided
 
to
waive
 
enforcement
 
of
 
the
 
seizure
 
of
 
the
 
Eagle
 
S
 
oil
 
tanker
 
due
 
to
 
the
 
financial
 
risk
 
involved.
 
The
 
decision
 
to
 
waive
 
enforcement
 
of
 
the
 
seizure
 
does
not
 
affect
 
further
 
legal
 
actions.
 
Fingrid
 
will
 
sue
 
for
 
damages
 
caused
 
by
 
the
 
Eagle
 
S.
On
 
29
 
January
 
2025,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
issued
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
30
 
December
 
2024
 
concerning
the
 
confirmation
 
of
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
for
 
the
 
OL3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant’s
 
system
 
protection
 
scheme.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
 
view,
 
the
 
OL3
system
 
protection
 
scheme
 
is
 
not
 
included
 
in
 
its
 
statutory
 
system
 
responsibility,
 
which
 
means
 
that
 
it
 
is
 
not
 
responsible
 
for
 
the
 
implementation
 
of
 
the
OL3
 
system
 
protection
 
scheme
 
or
 
any
 
fees.

up
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Accounting
 
Standards
 
(FAS).
 
The

quoted
 
by
 
the
 
European
 
Central
 
Bank
 
(ECB)
 
at
the

and

liabilities
 
and

and
 
on

hedging
 
these
items,
 
are
 
recognised
 
at
 
maturity
 
under
 
finance
 
income
 
and

rate
 
differences
 
arising
 
from
 
the
 
derivatives
 
used
 
to
 
hedge
commercial
 
currency
 
flows
 
are
 
recognised
 
to
 
adjust
 
the
 
corresponding
 
item
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement.
Interest
 
and
 
currency
 
derivatives
Interest
 
rate
 
and
 
currency
 
swaps,
 
currency
 
derivatives
 
and
 
interest
 
rate
 
options
 
are
 
used,
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Treasury
 
Policy,
 
to
 
hedge
 
the
interest
 
rate
 
and
 
foreign
 
exchange
 
risk,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
the
 
commercial
 
items,
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
balance
 
sheet
 
items.
 
The
 
accounting
 
principles
 
for
 
derivative
contracts
 
are
 
the
 
same
 
as
 
for
 
the
 
underlying
 
items.
 
The
 
interest
 
rate
 
items
 
of
 
interest
 
rate
 
and
 
cross-currency
 
swaps
 
and
 
interest
 
rate
 
options
 
are
accrued
 
and
 
recognised
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement
 
under
 
interest
 
income
 
and
 
costs.
 
The
 
interest
 
portion
 
of
 
currency
 
derivative
 
contracts
 
hedging
 
the
interest-bearing
 
liabilities
 
and
 
receivables
 
is
 
accrued
 
over
 
the
 
maturity
 
of
 
the
 
contracts
 
and
 
recognised
 
under
 
finance
 
income
 
and
 
costs.
 
Premiums
paid
 
or
 
received
 
on
 
interest
 
rate
 
options
 
are
 
accrued
 
over
 
the
 
hedging
 
period.
Electricity
 
derivatives
Fingrid
 
hedges
 
its
 
loss
 
power
 
purchases
 
against
 
price
 
risk
 
with
 
listed
 
futures
 
and
 
forward
 
contracts,
 
and
 
on
 
the
 
OTC
 
market,
 
with
 
contracts
comparable
 
to
 
financial
 
products.
 
The
 
profits
 
and
 
losses
 
arising
 
from
 
these
 
contracts
 
are
 
used
 
to
 
adjust
 
the
 
loss
 
energy
 
purchases
 
in
 
the
 
income
statement
 
in
 
the
 
period
 
in
 
which
 
the
 
hedging
 
impacts
 
profit
 
or
 
loss.
Metal
 
derivatives
The
 
company
 
concludes
 
metal
 
derivative
 
agreements
 
to
 
hedge
 
against
 
the
 
metal
 
price
 
risk
 
arising
 
from
 
purchases.
Research
 
and
 
development
 
expenses
Research
 
and
 
development
 
expenses
 
are
 
treated
 
as
 
annual
 
expenses.
Valuation
 
of
 
fixed
 
assets
 
Fixed
 
assets
 
are
 
capitalised
 
under
 
immediate
 
acquisition
 
cost.
 
Planned
 
straight-line
 
depreciation
 
and
 
amortisation
 
on
 
the
 
acquisition
 
price
 
is
calculated
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
 
useful
 
life
 
of
 
the
 
fixed
 
asset.
 
Depreciation
 
and
 
amortisation
 
on
 
fixed
 
assets
 
taken
 
into
 
use
 
during
 
the
 
financial

is
calculated
 
on
 
an
 
item-by-item
 
basis

current
 
portion
 
of
 
noncurrent
 
borrowings
 
and
 
bonds
 
maturing
 
within
 
a
 
year.
 
The
 
outstanding
 
notes
 
under
 
the
 
programmes
 
are
denominated
 
in
 
euros
 
and
 
foreign
 
currencies.
 
Fingrid
 
has
 
both
 
fixed

differential
 
of
 
a
 
bond
 
issued
 
over
 
or

fees
 
of
 
the
 
revolving
 
credit

as
 
a
 
rule,
 
immediately
 
recognised
 
as
 
an

and
 
the
 
commitment
 
fees
 
are
 
recognised
 
as
 
an
 
expense
 
over

facility.
Financial
 
risk
 
management
The
 
principles
 
applied
 
to
 
the
 
management
 
of
 
financial
 
risks
 
are
 
presented
 
in
 
chapters
 
6.2
 
and
 
6.3
 
of
 
the
 
Notes
 
to
 
the
 
Consolidated
 
Financial
Statements.
Income
 
taxes
Taxes
 
include
 
the
 
accrued
 
tax
 
corresponding
 
to
 
the
 
profit
 
for
 
the
 
financial
 
year
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
tax
 
adjustments
 
for
 
previous
 
financial
 
years.
Deferred
 
taxes
 
The
 
company
 
enters
 
deferred
 
tax
 
assets
 
for
 
the
 
congestion
 
income
 
it
 
uses
 
for
 
investments,
 
and
 
they
 
become
 
taxable
 
income
 
and
 
tax
 
in
 
the
 
year
 
in
which
 
they
 
were
 
used.
 
The
 
tax
 
assets
 
entered
 
for
 
congestion
 
income
 
are
 
recognised
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
depreciation
 
used
 
in
 
taxation
 
for
investments
 
covered
 
by
 
congestion
 
income.
 
Congestion
 
income
 
allocated
 
to
 
investments
 
is
 
entered
 
as
 
a
 
reduction
 
in
 
acquisition
 
cost.
 
For
 
the
 
rest,
deferred
 
tax
 
assets
 
and
 
liabilities
 
are
 
not
 
recorded
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement
 
or

sheet
 
but
 
are
 
instead
 
presented

LEGAL
 
PROCEEDINGS
 
AND
 
PROCEEDINGS
 
BY
 
AUTHORITIES
On
 
2
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
of
 
balance
 
service.
The
 
appeal
 
mainly
 
concerns
 
the
 
collateral
 
model
 
for
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties
 
presented
 
in
 
the
 
decision.
 
In
 
November
 
2023,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
issued
 
a
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
for
 
balance
 
responsible
 
parties,
 
which
 
include
 
the
 
principles
 
for
 
how
 
collateral
 
requirements
 
are
determined.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
includes
 
major
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
 
collateral
 
terms
 
and
 
conditions
 
and
 
sets
 
apart
 
Finland’s
collateral
 
model
 
from
 
that
 
used
 
in
 
other
 
Nordic
 
countries.
 
The
 
most
 
significant
 
changes
 
to
 
the
 
current
 
collateral
 
model
 
include
 
a
 
major
 
reduction
 
in
the
 
required
 
collaterals,
 
elimination
 
of
 
the
 
requirement
 
to
 
provide
 
an
 
adequate
 
additional
 
collateral
 
and
 
a
 
possible
 
collateral
 
ceiling.
On
 
29
 
January
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
methods
 
concerning
 
the
 
specification
 
of
the
 
profit
 
for
 
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations
 
for
 
the
 
sixth
 
regulatory
 
period
 
1
 
January
 
2024–31
 
December
 
2027
 
and
 
seventh
 
regulatory
period
 
1
 
January
 
2028–31
 
December
 
2031.
 
According
 
to
 
Fingrid’s
 
assessment,
 
the
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
regulatory
 
methods
 
is
 
a
 
significant
 
weakening
 
of
the
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
grid
 
operations’
 
reasonable
 
profit
 
regulatory
 
method
 
that
 
expired
 
at
 
year-end.
 
In
 
Fingrid’s
 
view,
 
the
 
assessment
 
of
impacts
 
in
 
preparing
 
the
 
regulatory
 
model
 
decision
 
has
 
been
 
deficient
 
and
 
there
 
are
 
still
 
issues
 
open
 
to
 
interpretation
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
presented
decision.
 
The
 
decision
 
weakens
 
Fingrid’s
 
ability
 
to
 
invest.
 
Fingrid’s
 
goal
 
is
 
a
 
solution
 
that
 
would
 
also
 
enable
 
the
 
future
 
development
 
of
 
the
 
grid,
allowing
 
the
 
hundreds
 
of
 
billions
 
in
 
green
 
transition
 
investments
 
in
 
Finland
 
to
 
be
 
implemented
 
as
 
planned.
On
 
15
 
February
 
2024,
 
Fingrid
 
appealed
 
to
 
the
 
Market
 
Court
 
against
 
the
 
decision
 
given
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
11
 
January
 
2024
 
on
 
the
 
scope
 
of
the
 
national
 
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
systems
 
responsibility
 
regarding
 
the
 
grid
 
connection
 
of
 
the
 
OL3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant.
 
Teollisuuden
Voima
 
Oyj
 
(“TVO”)
 
lodged
 
a
 
request
 
for
 
an
 
investigation
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
25
 
May
 
2022
 
related
 
to
 
the
 
claims
 
by
 
TVO
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
has
neglected
 
its
 
obligation
 
to
 
develop
 
the
 
main
 
grid
 
as
 
stated
 
in
 
the
 
Finnish
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act
 
and/or
 
other
 
applicable
 
legislation,
 
and
 
that,
 
as
 
a
result,
 
it
 
has
 
placed
 
unlawful
 
restrictions
 
on
 
connecting
 
the
 
Olkiluoto
 
3
 
nuclear
 
power
 
plant
 
to
 
the
 
grid,
 
and
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
its
administrative
 
obligations
 
linked
 
to
 
carrying
 
out
 
its
 
public
 
administrative
 
task.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
states
 
in
 
its
 
decision
 
of
 
11
 
January
 
2024
 
that
Fingrid
 
fulfilled
 
its
 
development,
 
connection
 
and
 
transmission
 
obligations
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Electricity
 
Market
 
Act.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
also
found
 
the
 
1,300
 
MW
 
power
 
limit
 
specified
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
connection
 
terms
 
justified
 
and
 
did
 
not
 
find
 
Fingrid
 
to
 
have
 
restricted
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
access
 
to
 
the
grid.
 
In
 
its
 
decision,
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
sees,
 
however,
 
that
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
falls
 
under
 
Fingrid’s
 
responsibility
 
based
 
on
 
a
transmission
 
system
 
operator’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
as
 
intended
 
by
 
legislation
 
and
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
is
 
in
 
breach
 
of
 
Article
 
9
 
of
 
the
 
Commission
 
Regulation
(EU)
 
2017/1485
 
establishing
 
a
 
guideline
 
on
 
electricity
 
transmission
 
system
 
operation
 
and
 
its
 
obligation
 
in
 
line
 
with
 
Section
 
10,
 
Subsection
 
1
 
of
 
the
Act
 
on
 
the
 
Control
 
of
 
the
 
Electricity
 
and
 
Natural
 
Gas
 
Market
 
(2013/590)
 
to
 
bring
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
it
 
applies
 
before
 
the
 
Energy
Authority
 
for
 
approval
 
prior
 
to
 
their
 
implementation.
 
 
In
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority’s
 
decision,
 
Fingrid
 
submitted
 
its
 
proposal
 
concerning
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
related
 
to
 
the
OL3
 
protection
 
scheme
 
on
 
30
 
April
 
2024.
 
The
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
issued
 
its
 
decision
 
on
 
the
 
determination
 
principles
 
for
 
fees
 
on
 
30
 
December
 
2024.
According
 
to
 
the
 
decision,
 
TVO
 
shall
 
bear
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
reimbursements
 
to
 
response
 
resources
 
connected
 
to
 
system
 
protection
 
and
 
for
 
the
construction,
 
maintenance
 
and
 
use
 
of
 
data
 
communication
 
connections.
 
The
 
decision
 
states
 
that
 
Fingrid
 
shall
 
bear
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
acquiring
 
the
response
 
resources
 
and
 
awarding
 
contracts,
 
managing
 
the
 
protection
 
scheme
 
and
 
the
 
tests
 
to
 
be
 
carried
 
out
 
on
 
the
 
response
 
resources
 
for
 
system
protection,
 
as
 
well
 
as
 
for
 
the
 
maintenance
 
of
 
the
 
measurement
 
and
 
monitoring
 
system
 
for
 
system
 
protection
 
in
 
Fingrid’s
 
operation
 
control
 
system.
Fingrid
 
and
 
TVO
 
have
 
agreed
 
on
 
provisional
 
fee
 
arrangements
 
for
 
Olkiluoto
 
3’s
 
protection
 
scheme
 
as
 
of
 
1
 
January
 
2025.
 
The
 
agreement
 
is
 
based
on
 
the
 
decision
 
issued
 
by
 
the
 
Energy
 
Authority
 
on
 
the
 
costs
 
for
 
the
 
protection
 
scheme
 
on
 
30
 
December
 
2024.
 
The
 
provisional
 
fee
 
arrangements
 
for
the
 
protection
 
scheme
 
do
 
not
 
directly
 
affect
 
the
 
legal
 
proceedings
 
concerning
 
the
 
protection
 
scheme’s
 
extent,
 
which
 
are
 
still
 
ongoing
 
in
 
the
 
Market
Court.
Fingrid
 
received
 
an
 
expropriation
 
permit
 
for
 
the
 
widening
 
of
 
the
 
Torna
 
–Lautakari
 
right-of-way
 
for
 
the
 
neutral

on
 
27
 
October
 
2022.
 
In
 
the
 
kick-off
meeting
 
for
 
the
 
expropriation
 
procedure
 
on
 
1
 
December
 
2022,
 
the

committee
 
decided
 
that
 
the

set

permit,
 
unless
 
otherwise
 
agreed.

meeting
 
of
 
the
 
expropriation
 
procedure
 
was
 
held
 
on

CONGESTION
 
INCOME
 
IN
 
GRID
 
OPERATIONS
The
 
congestion
 
income
 
received
 
by
 
a
 
grid
 
owner
 
must
 
be
 
used
 
for
 
the
 
purposes
 
stated
 
in
 
EU
 
Regulation
 
2019/943,
 
Article
 
19:
 
guaranteeing
 
the
actual
 
availability
 
of
 
the
 
allocated
 
capacity,
 
maintaining
 
or
 
increasing
 
interconnection
 
capacities
 
through
 
network
 
investments,
 
covering
 
the
 
costs
 
of
maintaining
 
said
 
capacity
 
and
 
recognising
 
congestion
 
income
 
in
 
the
 
company’s
 
turnover.
 
The
 
congestion
 
income
 
is
 
included
 
as
 
accruals
 
in
 
the
 
item
Other
 
liabilities
 
in
 
the
 
balance
 
sheet.
 
Of
 
accruals,
 
congestion
 
income
 
is
 
recognised
 
in
 
the
 
income
 
statement
 
in
 
other
 
operating
 
income
 
in
 
compliance
with
 
the
 
accrual
 
of
 
costs
 
defined
 
in
 
regulation
 
and
 
in
 
turnover
 
to
 
the
 
extent
 
that
 
congestion
 
income
 
can
 
be
 
directly
 
recognised
 
for
 
the
 
benefit
 
of
 
grid
customers.
 
Alternatively,
 
they
 
are
 
recognised
 
in
 
the
 
balance
 
sheet
 
against
 
investments,
 
as
 
defined
 
by
 
regulation,
 
to
 
lower
 
the
 
acquisition
 
cost
 
of
property,
 
plant
 
and
 
equipment.
 
As
 
a
 
result,
 
this
 
lowers
 
the
 
depreciation
 
of
 
the
 
property,
 
plant
 
and
 
equipment
 
in
 
question.

the
 
preparation
 
of

statements
 
in
 
Finland
 
and
 
comply
 
with

Our
 
opinion
 
is
 
consistent
 
with
 
the
 
additional
 
report
 
submitted
 
to
 
the
 
Audit
 
Committee.
Basis
 
for
 
Opinion
We
 
conducted
 
our
 
audit
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
good
 
auditing
 
practice
 
in
 
Finland.
 
Our
 
responsibilities
 
under
 
good
auditing
 
practice
 
are
 
further
 
described
 
in
 
the
Auditor’s
 
Responsibilities
 
for
 
the
 
Audit
 
of
 
the
 
Financial
Statements
 
section
 
of
 
our
 
report.
We
 
are
 
independent
 
of
 
the
 
parent
 
company
 
and
 
of
 
the
 
group
 
companies
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
the
 
ethical
requirements
 
that
 
are
 
applicable
 
in
 
Finland
 
and
 
are
 
relevant
 
to
 
our
 
audit,
 
and
 
we
 
have
 
fulfilled
 
our
 
other
 
ethical
responsibilities
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
these
 
requirements.
In
 
our
 
best
 
knowledge
 
and
 
understanding,
 
the
 
non-audit
 
services
 
that
 
we
 
have
 
provided
 
to
 
the
 
parent
company
 
and
 
group
 
companies
 
are
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
laws
 
and
 
regulations
 
applicable
 
in
 
Finland
 
regarding
these
 
services,
 
and
 
we
 
have
 
not
 
provided
 
any
 
prohibi
 
ted
 
non-audit
 
services
 
referred
 
to
 
in
 
Article
 
5(1)
 
of
regulation
 
(EU)
 
537/2014.
 
The
 
non-audit
 
services
 
that
 
we
 
have
 
provided
 
have
 
been
 
disclosed
 
in
 
note
 
4.5/7
to
 
the
 
consolidated
 
financial
 
statements.
We
 
believe
 
that
 
the
 
audit
 
evidence
 
we
 
have
 
obtained
 
is
 
sufficient
 
and
 
appropriate
 
to
 
provide
 
a
 
basis
 
for
 
our
opinion.
Materiality
The
 
scope
 
of
 
our
 
audit
 
was
 
influenced
 
by
 
our
 
application
 
of
 
materiality.
 
The
 
materiality
 
is
 
determined
 
based
on
 
our
 
professional
 
judgement
 
and
 
is
 
used
 
to
 
determine
 
the
 
nature,
 
timing
 
and
 
extent
 
of
 
our
 
audit
 
procedures
and
 
to
 
evaluate
 
the
 
effect
 
of
 
identified

The

we
 
set
 
is
 
based

our
 
assessment
 
of
 
the

We

also
 
taken
 
into

misstatements
 
and/or
 
possible
 
misstatements
 
that
 
in

Key
 
audit

are
 
those
 
matters
 
that,
 
in
 
our
 
professional
 
judgment,
 
were
 
of
 
most
 
significance
 
in
 
our
 
audit
of
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
of
 
the
 
current
 
period.
 
These
 
matters
 
were
 
addressed
 
in
 
the
 
context
 
of
 
our
 
audit
 
of
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
as
 
a

in
 
forming
 
our
 
opinion
 
thereon,
 
and
 
we
 
do
 
not
 
provide
 
a
 
separate
opinion
 
on
 
these
 
matters.
 
The
 
significant

We
 
have
 
also
 
addressed
 
the
 
risk
 
of
 
management
 
override
 
of
 
internal
 
controls.
 
This
 
includes
 
consideration
 
of
whether
 
there
 
was
 
evidence
 
of
 
management
 
bias
 
that
 
represented
 
a
 
risk

Auditor’s
 
Responsibilities
 
for
 
the
 
Audit
 
of
 
the
 
Financial
 
Statements
Our
 
objectives
 
are
 
to
 
obtain
 
reasonable
 
assurance
 
about
 
whether
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
as
 
a
 
whole
 
are
free
 
from
 
material
 
misstatement,
 
whether
 
due

fraud
 
or

and
 
to
 
issue
 
an
 
auditor’s
 
report
 
that
 
includes
our
 
opinion.
 
Reasonable
 
assurance
 
is
 
a
 
high
 
level
 
of
 
assurance
 
,
 
but
 
is
 
not
 
a
 
guarantee
 
that
 
an
 
audit
 
conducted
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
good
 
auditing
 
practice
 
will
 
always
 
detect
 
a
 
material
 
misstatement
 
when
 
it
 
exists.
Misstatements
 
can
 
arise
 
from
 
fraud
 
or
 
error
 
and
 
are
 
considered
 
material
 
if,
 
individually
 
or
 
in
 
the
 
aggregate,
they
 
could
 
reasonably
 
be
 
expected
 
to
 
influence
 
the
 
economic
 
decisions
 
of
 
users
 
taken
 
on
 
the
 
basis
 
of
 
the
financial
 
statements.
As
 
part
 
of
 
an
 
audit
 
in
 
accordance
 
with
 
good
 
auditing
 
practice,
 
we
 
exercise
 
professional
 
judgment
 
and
 
maintain
professional
 
skepticism
 
throughout
 
the
 
audit.
 
We
 
also:
Identify
 
and
 
assess
 
the
 
risks
 
of
 
material
 
misstatement
 
of
 
the
 
financial

whether
 
due
 
to

or

design
 
and
 
perform
 
audit
 
procedures
 
responsive
 
to
 
those
 
risks,
 
and
 
obtain
 
audit
 
evidence
 
that
is
 
sufficient
 
and
 
appropriate
 
to
 
provide
 
a
 
basis
 
for
 
our
 
opinion.
 
The
 
risk
 
of
 
not
 
detecting
 
a
 
material
misstatement
 
resulting
 
from
 
fraud
 
is
 
higher
 
than
 
for
 
one
 
resulting
 
from
 
error,
 
as
 
fraud
 
may
 
involve
collusion,
 
forgery,
 
intentional
 
omissions,
 
misrepresentations,
 
or
 
the
 
override
 
of
 
internal
 
control.
Obtain
 
an
 
understanding
 
of
 
internal
 
control
 
relevant
 
to
 
the
 
audit
 
in
 
order
 
to
 
design
 
audit
 
procedures
 
that
are
 
appropriate
 
in
 
the
 
circumstances,
 
but
 
not
 
for
 
the
 
purpose
 
of
 
expressing
 
an
 
opinion
 
on
 
the
effectiveness
 
of
 
the
 
parent
 
company’s
 
or
 
the
 
group’s
 
internal
 
control.
 
Evaluate
 
the
 
appropriateness
 
of
 
accounting
 
policies
 
used
 
and
 
the
 
reasonableness
 
of
 
accounting
estimates
 
and
 
related
 
disclosures
 
made
 
by
 
management.
Conclude
 
on
 
the
 
appropriateness
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors’
 
and
 
the
 
Managing
 
Director’s
 
use
 
of
 
the
 
going
concern
 
basis
 
of
 
accounting
 
and
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
audit
 
evidence
 
obtained,
 
whether
 
a
 
material
 
uncertainty
exists
 
related
 
to
 
events
 
or
 
conditions
 
that
 
may
 
cast
 
significant
 
doubt
 
on
 
the
 
parent
 
company’s
 
or
 
the
group’s
 
ability
 
to
 
continue
 
as
 
a
 
going
 
concern.
 
If
 
we
 
conclude
 
that
 
a
 
material
 
uncertainty
 
exists,
 
we
 
are
required
 
to
 
draw
 
attention
 
in
 
our
 
auditor’s
 
report
 
to
 
the
 
related
 
disclosures
 
in
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
or,
if
 
such
 
disclosures
 
are
 
inadequate,
 
to
 
modify
 
our
 
opinion.
 
Our
 
conclusions
 
are
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
audit
evidence
 
obtained
 
up
 
to
 
the
 
date
 
of
 
our
 
auditor’s
 
report.
 
However,
 
future
 
events
 
or
 
conditions
 
may
 
cause
the
 
parent
 
company
 
or
 
the
 
group
 
to
 
cease
 
to
 
continue
 
as
 
a
 
going
 
concern.
Evaluate
 
the
 
overall
 
presentation,
 
structure
 
and
 
content
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
statements,
 
including
 
the
disclosures,
 
and
 
whether
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
represent
 
the
 
underlying
 
transactions
 
and
 
events
 
so
that
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
give
 
a
 
true
 
and
 
fair
 
vie

We
 
also
 
provide
 
those
 
charged
 
with
 
governance
 
with
 
a
 
statement
 
that
 
we
 
have
 
complied
 
with
 
relevant
 
ethical
requirements
 
regarding
 
independence,
 
and
 
communicate
 
with
 
them
 
all
 
relationships
 
and
 
other
 
matters
 
that
may
 
reasonably
 
be
 
thought
 
to
 
bear
 
on
 
our
 
independence,
 
and
 
where
 
applicable,
 
related
 
safeguards.
From
 
the
 
matters
 
communicated
 
with
 
those
 
charged
 
with
 
governance,
 
we
 
determine
 
those
 
matters
 
that
 
were
of
 
most
 
significance
 
in
 
the
 
audit
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
of
 
the
 
current
 
period
 
and
 
are
 
therefore
 
the
 
key
audit
 
matters.
 
We
 
describe
 
these
 
matters
 
in
 
our
 
auditor’s
 
report
 
unless
 
law
 
or
 
regulation
 
precludes
 
public
disclosure
 
about
 
the
 
matter
 
or
 
when,
 
in
 
extremely
 
rare
 
circumstances,
 
we
 
determine
 
that
 
a
 
matter
 
should
 
not
be
 
communicated
 
in
 
our
 
report
 
because
 
the
 
adverse
 
consequences
 
of
 
doing
 
so
 
would
 
reasonably
 
be
expected
 
to
 
outweigh
 
the
 
public
 
interest
 
benefits
 
of
 
such
 
communication.
Other
 
Reporting
 
Requirements
Information
 
on
 
our

and
 
our

of
 
1
 
years.
Other
 
Information
The
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
and
 
the
 
Managing
 
Director
 
are
 
responsible
 
for
 
the
 
other
 
information.
 
The
 
other
information
 
comprises
 
the
 
report
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
and
 
the

thereon.
 
We

prior
 
to

and
 
the

Report
 
is
 
expected
 
to
 
be
 
made
available
 
to
 
us
 
after
 
that

.
 
Our
 
opinion
 
on
 
the
 
financial
 
statements
 
does
 
not
 
cover
 
the
 
other
 
information.
In
 
connection
 
with
 
our
 
audit
 
of
 
the
 
financial
 
statements,
 
our
 
responsibility
 
is
 
to
 
read
 
the
 
other
 
information
identified
 
above
 
and,
 
in
 
doing
 
so,
 
consider
 
whether
 
the
 
other
 
information
 
is
 
materially
 
inconsistent
 
with
 
the
financial
 
statements
 
or
 
our
 
knowledge
 
obtained
 
in
 
the
 
audit,
 
or
 
otherwise
 
appears
 
to
 
be
 
materially
 
misstated.
With
 
respect
 
to
 
the
 
report
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors,
 
our
 
responsibility
 
also
 
includes
 
considering
 
whether
 
the
report
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
has
 
been
 
prepared
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
 
applicable
 
provisions,
 
excluding
the
 
sustainability
 
report
 
information
 
on
 
which
 
there
 
are
 
provisions
 
in
 
Chapter
 
7
 
of
 
the
 
Accounting
 
Act
 
and
 
in
the

In
 
our
 
opinion,
 
the
 
information
 
in
 
the
 
report
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
is
 
consistent
 
with
 
the
 
information
 
in
 
the
financial
 
statements
 
and
 
the
 
report
 
of
 
the
 
Board
 
of
 
Directors
 
has
 
been
 
prepared
 
in
 
compliance
 
with
 
the
applicable
 
provisions
 
.
 
Our
 
opinion
 
does
 
not
 
cover
 
the
 
sustainability
 
report
 
information
 
on
 
which
 
there
 
are
provisions
 
in
 
Chapter
 
7
 
of
 
the

Act
 
and
 
in

If,
 
based
 
on
 
the
 
work
 
we
 
have
 
performed
 
on
 
the
 
other
 
information
 
that
 
we
 
obtained
 
prior
 
to
 
the
 
date
 
of
 
this
auditor’s
 
report,
 
we
 
conclude
 
that
 
there
 
is
 
a
 
material
 
misstatement
 
of
 
this
 
other
 
information,
 
we
 
are
 
required
to
 
report
 
that
 
fact.
 
We
 
have
 
nothing

in
 
this
 
regard.
Other
 
Opinions
We
 
support
 
that
 
the

should
 
be
 
adopted.
 
The

The
 
nature,
 
timing

extent
 
of
 
the
 
selected

depend
 
on
 
the

the

we

appropriate
 
to
 
provide
