Finland’s energy challenges
• Mitigation of climate change– Reduction of greenhouse gases and energy efficiency
• Structural dependency on electricity imports, phase-out of older power plants
– Investment needs in power generation capacity
• Energy sources and self-sufficiency– Increase of domestic and renewable energy resources– Energy efficiency
• Energy price competitiveness

Special energy features in Finland (many are similar to Japan)
• Lack of own energy resources, the share of bioenergy and hydropower is little bit over 30 %, the rest is imported energy.
• Part of integrating Europe, yet geographically isolated – security of supply and competitive prices have been the traditional driving forces and policy rationale for the electricity sector
• Very high energy consumption per capita - biggest user of electricity / capita in EU (c. 16 000 kWh / capita) - Japan C. 7 000 kWh / capita
• High share of low carbon sources (nuclear and renewables) in electricity production (64 %)
• High share of combined heat and power production (CHP) - 30 % of the total electricity is generated with CHP
• High share of district heating, almost 50 % market share in space heating
• Trust in nuclear power
The Finnish energy system is efficient and emissions are at low levelcompared to the EU average

Background - market liberalisation in the EU
• Liberalization started slowly in some member states:– UK 1990 (big customers) / 1998 (households)– Norway 1991/1995– Finland 1995/1998– Sweden 1996/1998
• Creating a Nordic electricity exchange in the late 1990’s• EU internal energy market legislation (electricity & gas)
– 1996– 2003– 2009 (Vertical unbundling – producers have had to sell their
shares in transmission companies TSO’s)

The role of EU’s climate and energy policy
• Common targets for 2020– Climate change – GHG emission reductions (-20% vs. 1990)– Renewable energy (20 % share of end-use)– Energy efficiency (20 % more efficient use of energy)
• EU measures and efforts– Common and open energy markets– Emissions trading scheme with emission caps– Energy efficiency standards for applications– Common environmental minimum requirements
• Primary energy sources are part of national energy policy– National support schemes for renewable energy– National decision on the use of nuclear energy
IEEJ 2012 June Issue: All rights reserved
EU ETS
• Cap-and-trade scheme – Limited and decreasing total number of allowances (t Co2) at
European level– Companies need to verify their emissions and return
equivalent amount of emission allocation units (EUAs) every year
• Commodity market – Anyone can trade EUAs

Nuclear safety on the agenda again in Europe due to the Fukushima accident
• Early reassessment of the Nuclear safety directive (unified framework for nuclear safety regulations)
• Stress tests – meant to test plants’ ability to withstand ”Fukushima-like” scenarios (not earthquake and tsunami as such) where the facility loses access to AC supply, loss of UHS, and severe and prolonged accident management + peer reviews
• Nuclear liability will probably be handled separately – increased liabilities for operators are in the pipeline

Status of nuclear energy in Finland• Two existing nuclear power plants (4 reactors)
– Capacity c. 2700 MW, generation 22 TWh/a– 2 BWR reactors in Olkiluoto (TVO) (1979 and 1982)– 2 PWR reactors in Loviisa (Fortum) (1977 and 1981)– Phase out around 2030
• One new plant under construction, Olkiluoto 3– EPR / Areva-Siemens 1600 MW– Expected generation 12 TWh/a– Estimated commercial operation in 2014
• Extremely good operational experience from current fleet• Plans for final disposal of spent fuel scheduled, funded and widely
accepted– High level waste storage facility under construction– Low and intermediate level waste storage in use since 1992
• Nuclear power faces a relatively high public acceptance

Nuclear energy – two new projects in Finland
• Government’s decision in May 2010– Positive decisions of principle for 2 reactors
• TVO: Olkiluoto 4 (1000…1800 MW)– 5 alternative plant suppliers
• Fennovoima: one reactor (max 1800 MW)– 2 alternative plant suppliers
– Ratification by parliament in July 2010• Supplier selection under process• The new units in operation in 2020´s

Reasons for relatively high level of acceptance of nuclear power
L. Muranen
40
• Independent (of industry and government) and respected safety authority
• Very good operating experiences with existing plants (incl. safety and capacity factors)
• Environmental reasons (esp. climate protection)
• Viable program for permanent management of spent fuel and low + intermediate level radioactive waste
• Economic reasons (need for competitive electricity for the industry and households) and wide ownership base of NPPs
• Consistent communication strategy

Financing nuclear - Mankala principle
• A model for co-ownership of power generation
• A number of varying sized utilities group together with industryto share financial risks of capital intensive project that a single actor would not be able to finance
• A long history in Finland - originates from 1960´s
• Applied widely for all kinds of power generation
IEEJ 2012 June Issue: All rights reserved
22.6.2012L. Muranen
47
The main principle of mankala ownership
• The mankala companies are limited liability companies• However, the company itself does not aim to produce profit or to
give dividend– The objective is to generate electricity for the shareholders at
cost– The economic result of generating electricity is thus a part of
each shareholders´ own profit and loss account• The obligations and rights to the company are set in the articles
of association and shareholders´ agreement• The owners share the costs
– Fixed costs according to shares in ownership– Variable costs according to shares in generation

EU Energy Road Map 2050
• Policy initiative by European Commission, December 2011– Under evaluation by EU member states and EU parliament
• Alternative pathways to low carbon energy future– Five different future scenarios
• With more or less renewables, nuclear, CCS, energy efficiency
– In all scenarios appr. -85 % reduction in CO2 emissions in energy use• Remarkable increase in energy efficiency• Role and amount of electricity will increase• Renewables will increase tremendously• Role of energy infrastructure and market will increase
22.6.2012L. Muranen
50
IEEJ 2012 June Issue: All rights reserved
EU Energy future continued
• One outcome is one single target – i.e. 40 % Co2 reduction by 2030 (targets for renewable and efficiency likely too)
• If support schemes for renewables will continue, increased pressure to harmonize due to market distortion
• Shale gas will likely play an important role in some member states – the shale gas revolution is yet to happen in Europe

Energy future for Finland
• Diverse portfolio including nuclear, renewables and to lesser extent imported fossil fuels
• Natural gas (incl. shale gas) continue to be important albeit not as critical to national energy system as renewables and nuclear power
• Challenges:– Security of supply– Taxes – predictable investment conditions– The future of EU energy policy and climate negotiations
