Electricity market in Finland
Finland is a single bidding zone run by Fingrid. Nuclear power — including Olkiluoto 3, Europe's largest reactor — and rapidly growing wind power cover most demand.
With so much wind, Finnish prices are among the most volatile in Europe: very low or negative on windy days, sharp peaks on calm, cold winter evenings. Finland is connected to Sweden and to Estonia (Estlink).
How to use these prices
If you have a dynamic electricity contract, the hourly price changes your bill directly: running the dishwasher, washing machine or EV charger in the cheapest hours instead of the evening peak can halve the cost of that energy. The cheapest consecutive hours are highlighted above for both today and tomorrow.
Frequently asked questions
When is electricity cheapest in Finland?
Usually at night and, on sunny days, around midday when solar output peaks. The most expensive hours are typically the morning and evening peaks. The cheapest 2- and 4-hour windows for today and tomorrow are shown above.
When are tomorrow's electricity prices for Finland published?
The European day-ahead auction closes at noon CET and results are published at around 12:45 CET. This page updates within about 15 minutes after that.
Is this the price I pay for electricity in Finland?
No. This is the wholesale price without VAT, taxes, network charges or the supplier's margin. It matters directly if you have a dynamic or spot-price contract; fixed-price contracts follow it only over months.
Why is the price in Finland different from neighbouring countries?
All European zones are coupled in one market. Prices are equal when cross-border lines have spare capacity and differ when lines are congested — then each zone's own supply and demand set its price.
