20-20-20 targets for the European Union

By 2020, the EU should:

• increase the share of renewable energy sources to 20 %

• decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 20 %

• increase energy efficiency by 20 %

Energy Roadmap 2050

The European Commission issued its Energy Roadmap 2050

in December 2011

• the aim is to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 85 % by 2050

• electricity has a vital role in reaching the goal:

> total energy consumption decreases

> electricity consumption increases

Objectives for Finland

Objectives for Finland have been listed in the Long-Term Climate and

Energy Strategy approved by the Government in November 2008.

Strategy will be updated in the beginning of 2013.

• decreasing total energy consumption

• increasing the share of renewable energy to 38 %

• slow growth in electricity consumption (except for last two years there has been slow decrease due to recession)

• acquisition of electricity should primarily be based on own capacity

> nuclear power will almost triple and wind power increase tenfold during the next 10 - 15 years


Electricity Consumption Year 2012 85.2 TWh

Conclusions of upgradings


• Upgrading in connection with refurbishment is often very cost-effective

• Long periods on excess water improve the feasibility

• Possibility to improve safety and environment-friendliness by totally new solutions

• Increased value of power and improvement in turbine design have made it possible to achieve bigger power increase in the latest upgradings compared with the first ones
