Current situation in wind power in Finland:

Finnish wind power technology exports are considerable (generators and freq. converters, gears, blade materials and blade parts, tower materials and towers, instruments, wind turbines, etc. )

Employed over 3000 persons

90 % of the products were exported

0,3 % of the electricity in Finland is produced with wind (0,3 TWh)

Energy strategy of Finland: target 6 TWh annual wind power production by 2020

The challenges

• Lack of skilled staff -> education is only starting

• The national research on wind energy modest → technology program needed

• Still lack of reference projects in Finland• Installed capacity 130 turbines, 197 MW

• Legislation is finally set

• Waiting for the projects to receive building permits

Case studies

The industry as such: 3 % of the international market share

Value of the exports of the biggest companies 1 mrd e/a

Moventas Wind: biggest independent

The Swicth: growing fast

Rautaruukki: high tower- consept

Ahsltöm: blade composite solution

Vaisala: wind measurement systems

Mervento: 3,6, MW direct drive, pilot 2011
