Finland's southern wind power expansion blocked by defense, population, environment

Wind turbine construction in southern Finland is restricted by the Finnish Defence Forces, dense population, and natural values, leading to a concentration of wind power in the north. This limits renewable energy expansion near demand centers, potentially increasing grid costs and reliance on northern transmission. The policy trade-off between defense, environment, and energy transition remains unresolved.
