Finnish MP proposes extending grid security deadline to curb transmission price hikes

Finnish MP Mika Lintilä proposes extending the 2036 deadline for electricity grid security-of-supply investments, warning that current requirements could nearly double transmission prices in some areas. The proposal follows a 2022 law revision aimed at curbing price increases, indicating a policy reversal under cost pressure. The outcome is uncertain as it requires parliamentary action, but it signals potential regulatory relief for consumers and businesses facing higher electricity costs.
