According to the preliminary data of the Energy Authority, at the end of 2023, Finland had approximately 1,000 MW of installed solar power production capacity, 936 MW of which was micro-generation and 50 MW from industrial-scale power plants. Unconnected capacity totalled approximately 23 MW.
The total capacity increased by more than 300 MW over the year. According to the preliminary data of the Energy Authority, at the end of 2023, Finland had approximately 1,000 MW of installed solar power production capacity, 936 MW of which was micro-generation and 50 MW from industrial-scale power plants.
However, solar PV is currently in Finland the second least cost option for new electric power generation after wind power. The Energy Authority () collects the official data of grid-connected PV electricity in Finland from the grid companies on yearly basis. The results of the survey are published on late June.
Unconnected capacity totalled approximately 23 MW. At the end of last year, Finland's grid-connected power production capacity was approximately 23,000 MW. Solar power accounted for around 4% of the grid-connected capacity. The production of solar power accounted for approximately 0.8% of the total power production in Finland in 2023.
The construction of industrial-scale solar power has picked up pace in Finland, with significant growth in both capacity and the number of projects over the past two years. Currently, solar power is produced in more than 20 Finnish municipalities, with the total capacity of industrial-scale solar power exceeding 120 megawatts.
In the coming years, the growth of solar power in Finland is expected to accelerate. The first large-scale solar power plants, exceeding 100 megawatts, are currently under construction or in the permitting phase. Based on these projects, Finland’s industrial solar power capacity is set to multiply rapidly.
The global solar storage container market is experiencing explosive growth, with demand increasing by over 200% in the past two years. Pre-fabricated containerized solutions now account for approximately 35% of all new utility-scale storage deployments worldwide. North America leads with 40% market share, driven by streamlined permitting processes and tax incentives that reduce total project costs by 15-25%. Europe follows closely with 32% market share, where standardized container designs have cut installation timelines by 60% compared to traditional built-in-place systems. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest-growing region at 45% CAGR, with China's manufacturing scale reducing container prices by 18% annually. Emerging markets in Africa and Latin America are adopting mobile container solutions for rapid electrification, with typical payback periods of 3-5 years. Major projects now deploy clusters of 20+ containers creating storage farms with 100+MWh capacity at costs below $280/kWh.
Technological advancements are dramatically improving solar storage container performance while reducing costs. Next-generation thermal management systems maintain optimal operating temperatures with 40% less energy consumption, extending battery lifespan to 15+ years. Standardized plug-and-play designs have reduced installation costs from $80/kWh to $45/kWh since 2023. Smart integration features now allow multiple containers to operate as coordinated virtual power plants, increasing revenue potential by 25% through peak shaving and grid services.
