| Work Detail | Metsähallitus and Suomen Hyötytuuli have signed an access right contract by which Metsähallitus leases the public water area off the coast of Pori Tahkoluoto to Suomen Hyötytuuli for wind power production. The agreement is the first long-running access right contract for public water area designated for wind power production. Suomen Hyötytuuli’s Tahkoluoto offshore wind farm in Pori was piloted in 2010 and completed in 2017. It is Finland’s first offshore wind farm and the world’s first wind farm in frozen sea conditions. Suomen Hyötytuuli is now developing an extension wind farm north-east of Tahkoluoto. The land use plan was approved in December 2022 and allows for 40 modern wind generators of over 15MW. After signing the access right contract, the project proceeds to permitting, technical design and investment preparation. The project is estimated to be completed in 2027. |
