The Road to Net Zero: How Helen Electricity Network is Preparing Helsinki‘s Power Grid for 2030 with the IGP
While Finland aims to be CO2-neutral by 2035, Helsinki has set the ambitious goal of becoming emission-free by 2030. This is not an easy task, as the majority of carbon emissions are caused by mobility and building heating. The city’s climate goals, therefore, require a massive transformation of the transport and heating sectors, which involves electrification on a grand scale.
As the largest energy provider in the region, Helen Electricity Network‘s electrical network is a crucial factor in this transition. However, this transformation poses a challenge for the power grid and requires extensive studies to better understand the impacts of these changes and prepare the grids for future loads.
In the case study, you’ll learn:
- Which socio-economic trends led to Helen Electricity Network’s decision to better understand how their grid will develop in the future
- What kind of 3 possible scenarios for future grid studies the Finnish grid operator developed based on these trends
- How Helen Electricity Network plans to evaluate these scenarios and what their next steps will be
