Fingrid will modernise a substation in Jyväskylä to improve power

The Finnish transmission system operator Fingrid will modernise the Rauhalahti substation in Jyväskylä. The modernisation of the substation will improve the system security of the power grid and make it possible to connect the electric boilers of the energy company Alva to the main grid, thereby achieving cleaner district heating production.

Fingrid began to publish power system frequency measurement

The balance between power consumption and production can be observed in power system frequency. If consumption exceeds production, frequency begins to decrease. Vice versa, if production exceeds consumption, frequency begins to increase. During normal operation, frequency in the Nordic power system is allowed to fluctuate between 49.9 and 50.1 Hz.

6 FAQs about [Eritrea fingrid power system]

How does Fingrid use reserve markets?

To balance these deviations, Fingrid procures different kinds of reserves from reserve markets. Reserves are power plants, consumption resources and energy storages which adjust their electric power according to the need of the power system.

How is Fingrid connected to Estonia?

Finland is also connected to Estonia by HVDC transmission links. The joint Nordic system is also connected to the Central European system by HVDC transmission links. Fingrid participates in ENTSO-E, the European Network of Transmission System Operators for Electricity. Main grid

How does Fingrid balance consumption and production?

The market operators plan and balance their consumption and production in advance, but in practice there are deviations during each hour. To balance these deviations, Fingrid procures different kinds of reserves from reserve markets.

How does a distribution network work in Fingrid?
