4. Finnish Wind Power Association
 Established in 1988
 “Sister Association” VKF
 Members:
• Over 100 companies
• About 200 private persons
 Operates with companies, private persons interested in the
wind energy, NGO's politicians etc.
 Goal: Promote the wind energy in Finland
• Publishes the Tuulienergia - magazine
• Distributes information on www-pages
• Participates fairs
• Organizes and participates conferences
• Participates in the public and political discussion
www.tuulivoimayhdistys.fi

5. Current situation in wind power in Finland:
 Finnish wind power technology
exports are considerable (generators
and freq. converters, gears, blade
materials and blade parts, tower
materials and towers, instruments,
wind turbines, etc. )
 Employed over 3000 persons
 90 % of the products were exported
 0,3 % of the electricity in Finland is
produced with wind (0,3 TWh)
 Energy strategy of Finland: target 6
TWh annual wind power production
by 2020

6. The challenges
• Lack of skilled staff -> education is only
starting
• The national research on wind energy
modest → technology program needed
• Still lack of reference projects in Finland
• Installed capacity 130 turbines, 197 MW
• Legislation is finally set
• Waiting for the projects to receive
building permits

7. Case studies
 The industry as such: 3 % of the
international market share
 Value of the exports of the biggest
companies 1 mrd e/a
 Moventas Wind: biggest independent
 The Swicth: growing fast
 Rautaruukki: high tower- consept
 Ahsltöm: blade composite solution
 Vaisala: wind measurement systems
 Mervento: 3,6, MW direct drive, pilot

8. Single example: WinWinD
 Top 4 producer in 3 MW class globally
(2009)
 variable speed, slow speed, planetary
gear box and low speed permanent
magnet generator; cold climate design
 1 MW turbine pilot in 2001, 3 MW
turbine pilot in 2004
 324 MW installed in 7 different
countries (Sweden, Estonia, Portugal,
France, ..)
 Over 74 MW contracted
