Finland phases out coal, ahead of schedule:
“Imported fossil energy has been replaced with cleaner solutions that reduce climate emissions, while consumers benefit from lower energy prices”
“As Finland previously relied primarily on coal imported from Russia, the phase-out has also boosted Finland’s energy independence and, therefore, national security.”
@Akshay it's only Helsinki. The rest of Finland has 2 more coal plants that give <1% of the country's emissions. Also, this plant had an extension for its closing date, so ahead of schedule is not really true.
Thanks for the local info!
But <1% is good enough for me!
And zero (except strategic reserve) next year is excellent. (I’m not sure when the original national target for coal phase out was? I thought they were talking about the national coal phase out date, not this particular plant.)
