This paper has provided a comprehensive review of the current status and developments of energy storage in Finland, and this information could prove useful in future modeling studies of the Finnish energy system that incorporate energy storages.
However, the energy system is still producing electricity to the national grid and DH to the Lempäälä area, while the BESSs participate in Fingrid's market for balancing the grid . Like the energy storage market, legislation related to energy storage is still developing in Finland.
Currently, utility-scale energy storage technologies that have been commissioned in Finland are limited to BESS (lithium-ion batteries) and TES, mainly TTES and Cavern Thermal Energy Storages (CTES) connected to DH systems.
After the start of commercial operations in 2026, the project will contribute an important balancing function to the Finnish grid, supporting the Finnish renewable energy expansion. The groundbreaking ceremony took place in the afternoon on Monday the 26th of May on the site near Nivala where the battery energy storage system will be built.
This development forebodes a significant transition in the Finnish energy system, requiring new flexibility mechanisms to cope with this large share of generation from variable renewable energy sources. Energy storage is one solution that can provide this flexibility and is therefore expected to grow.
Energy storage systems offer a solution. “This groundbreaking is an important moment for Finland’s energy transition and a concrete step toward a more flexible, resilient, and decarbonized energy system,” said Jussi Jyrinsalo, Senior Vice President at Fingrid.
