Transition to renewable energy
Building a fossil-free welfare society
Finland has banned the use of coal for energy by 2029 and we are providing energy companies with incentives for investments to replace coal already by 2025. By 2030, the domestic use of imported mineral oil, like petrol, will be halved and the use of fossil fuel oil in heating phased out. In properties owned by the central and local governments, oil heating will come to an end already in 2024 at the latest. The energy use of peat will be at least halved by 2030. In district heating and building-specific heating, we will encourage investments to move away from fossil fuels to sustainable options, like heat pumps, with taxation and subsidies.
