BESS are excellent alternatives because of their capability to charge and discharge energy. The Finnish electricity market is part of the Nordic, the most integrated and liberalized electricity market globally (International Energy Agency, 2023b).
The need for BESS is exceptionally high in Finland because the country has set one of the world’s most aggressive climate targets. The government has a legal obligation to reach carbon neutrality by 2035. Renewable energy sources account for over 50% of electricity production, and several renewable projects are being planned or developed.
Today, BESS’s most significant revenue sources in Finland are frequency containment reserves (FCR-N, FCR-D up, and FCR-D down). Prices of FCR-N and FCR-D up have continuously increased for the past few years. Fingrid procures these reserves based on competitive bidding from the yearly and hourly markets.
The 70 MW/140 MWh BESS project will be located in Nivala, northern Finland. Set to go online in 2026, the facility will enhance grid stability, energy resilience and accelerate green electrification. The project marks Ingrid Capacity’s first two-hour system and its debut in Finland.
