Finnish Energy

Finnish Energy represents Finnish energy sector companies and employers that produce and distribute electricity, district heating and cooling and of otherwise connected to energy industry. Our members play a key role in enabling energy solutions for society and industry, and in promoting a sustainable, competitive, and low-emission energy system. We see the advancement of the circular economy as highly desirable.

Made in EU criteria is applied on nuclear energy, including both power and heat. Nuclear technologies are highly plant supplier specific. IAA should not limit the availability of nuclear OEM components. Nuclear heat is undeveloped sector with highly plant-specific key components. Finnish Energy considers it necessary to promote low-carbon products based on new technologies through demand-creating instruments.

Finnish Energy, representing the Finnish energy industries, would like to highlight the following three issues regarding the public procurement directive (2014/25/EU): 1) Simplification and flexibility of rules Simplifying and allowing adequate flexibility in public procurement procedures is necessary in order to ensure the continuity of supply of critical assets essential to the energy infrastructures.

Finnish Energy supports the Commissions aim to improve the usability and clarity of Taxonomy. Revisions must not jeopardise the Taxonomy alignment of existing plants and new investments. Revisions should simply improve the usability of Taxonomy by simplifying and clarifying the current criteria where needed. We do not support tightening existing greenhouse gas (GHG) thresholds.

Finnish Energy is the main industry association representing Finlands energy sector. It represents companies that produce, acquire, transmit, and sell electricity, gas, district heating, and district cooling, as well as related services.

Finnish Energy represents companies that produce, acquire, transmit and sell electricity, gas, district heat and district cooling and offer related services. Finnish Energy welcomes the opportunity to comment on the European Commissions review of the EU Taxonomy Climate Delegated Act.

Finnish Energy welcomes the update of the heating and cooling strategy as a top-down strategy to decarbonise heating as to ensure cost efficient transition to climate neutral future. Finland showcases as a great example how to phase out fossil fuels whilst simultaneously building our capabilities for sector integration and district heat electrification.

Finnish Energy, representing around 270 Finnish companies active in the production, acquisition, transmission and sale of electricity, gas, district heating and district cooling (and related services), supports the Digital Fitness Check objective of creating a simpler, clearer and more coherent EU legal framework for digitalisation.

Finnish Energy, representing the energy sector in Finland, appreciates the opportunity to contribute to the consultation on the proposed revision of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission saving methodology under Annex V and VI of the Renewable Energy Directive (REDIII).

The permanence of international credits should match the target they are used for. When used for to meet the targets in the LULUCF-sector, they could be from either permanent carbon capture or from nature-based solutions. When used to meet the targets of ESR-sector, they should be from permanent carbon capture and follow the same logic as when benefiting domestic carbon capture.

Finnish Energy (ET) is the main industry association representing Finlands energy sector. It represents companies involved in the production, transmission, distribution, and sale of electricity, gas, district heating and cooling, as well as related services. Finnish Energy promotes a clean, secure, and competitive energy system through policy advocacy, analysis, statistics, and guidance at national and EU level.

Finnish Energy (ET) welcomes the EUs decision to achieve 90% net emission reductions by 2040 compared to emissions level in 1990. Finlands own goal is to achieve carbon neutrality by 2035. Achieving this goal requires all zero and low carbon energy solutions, including renewables, nuclear, energy efficiency, storage, CCS, CCU, natural carbon removals, geothermal, hydro-energy, and other current and future net-zero…

Finnish Energy considers the Rating scheme for data centres in the EU, for the most part, comprehensive and well-designed. Finnish Energy recommends changes to the Annex III requirements regarding PPAs. The current proposal is unfeasible and risks investments and fragmentation of the current market.

In general, it is the responsibility of Member States to ensure that consumer rights are effectively realised in practice by transposing and implementing EU legislation. This includes energy related legislation, including the revised Electricity Market Directive, together with the consumer protection regime.

Finnish Energy thanks you for the opportunity to comment on the implementing regulation concerning switching electricity suppliers. Attached, we present our detailed feedback. We support the goal of seamless switching. We emphasize that this regulation shall purely focus on the data exchange and it shall not restrict contractual possibilities.

Measuring Instruments Directive ̶ evaluation 11.9.2025 9.10.2025 Statement We appreciate the opportunity to comment on the proposal for the Measuring Instruments Directive and state the following: Suitability of the Measuring Instruments Directive for all meters: The Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) regulates all meters, including advanced smart meters for measuring energy, weighing instruments, and exhaust gas…
