Despite its northern location, there are good production conditions for solar power also in Finland. Total solar irradiation in southern Finland is on a par with central Europe. Solar power is a clean, renewable and almost limitless energy source with a low environmental impact. Annual irradiance is also at a good level in Kymenlaakso.
Major solar power projects are currently underway in each of the municipalities in our area of operation, which will provide us with more locally produced energy.
