The MEE granted EUR 20 million in investment subsidies for the implementation of the project on 19 November 2014. Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli&#8217;s aim is to make a decision on the investment in spring 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli has been involved in development of offshore wind power since 2000 and the company\u2019s offshore project is one of the most progressed in Finland.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We received several good applications for the experimental project for offshore wind power. Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy&#8217;s project was considered to be the best one. It will now serve as a trailblazer for Finnish offshore wind power&#8221;, observes Minister of Economic Affairs Jan Vapaavuori, who signed the decision supporting the project.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ministry\u2019s investment subsidies provide us with an opportunity to generate a remarkable energy source in Finland, based on offshore wind power. Simultaneously, it ables the development of the offshore wind power technology and launch of a new business concept that combines Finnish knowhow in marine and steel engineering with new innovations\u201d, comments Toni Sulameri, Managing Director of Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy.<\/p>\n<p>Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli hopes to build 10 or 11 turbines in Tahkoluoto, Pori.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dThe planning has proceeded in good co-operation with the residents of the area and other stakeholders. Our focus has been on the environmental impacts as well as the technical and economic feasibility, comments Miia Wall\u00e9n, Head of Project Development of Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201dNew technology and careful planning help us to reduce the project\u2019s unwanted impacts and risks related to them. We intend to fully utilize both.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The planning of the Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli\u2019s offshore project continues. The company\u2019s aim is to make the decision on the investment in spring 2015, after the completion of the necessary studies and permit processes.<\/p>\n<p>The project would demonstrate solutions for wind turbines and offshore foundations that are suitable for conditions in the Baltic Sea. In the future, these would allow for more extensive construction of offshore wind power in the icy conditions of the Baltic Sea. Ice conditions in the area are challenging, especially because of pack ice.<\/p>\n<p>Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy\u2019s shareholders are major Finnish city energy companies and the company has over 15 years of experience in wind power production as well as research and development of wind power. Besides the offshore pilot, the company has two onshore wind farms in operation, in Pori with 11.3 MW and in Raahe with 20.7 MW. The farms produced nearly one fifth of Finland\u2019s wind energy in 2012. In the next few years, Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli aims to build 400 MW of new wind power in Finland.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further information:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy, Managing Director, Mr Toni Sulameri<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:toni.sulameri@hyotytuuli.fi\">toni.sulameri@hyotytuuli.fi<\/a>, tel. +358 50 524 9609<\/p>\n<p>Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy, Head of Project Development, Ms Miia Wall\u00e9n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:miia.wallen@hyotytuuli.fi\">miia.wallen@hyotytuuli.fi<\/a>, tel.\u00a0+ 358 50 329 7127<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Ministry of Employment and the Economy has selected Suomen Hy\u00f6tytuuli Oy&#8217;s plan for a wind power farm as an experimental project for offshore wind power in Finland.
