1 Mr. Aimo Takala President and CEO Role of Hydro Power in the Finnish Energy System

2 Electricity Generation in Nordic market area 2011

3 Electricity Production by Energy Sources 2012 (67,7 TWh) Coal 10,2 % Oil 0,5 % Natural gas 9,3 % Hydro power 24,5 % Wind power 0,7 % Peat 6,2 % Nuclear power 32,6 % Waste fuels 1,1 % Bio fuel 14,9 % Renewable 41 % Carbon dioxide free 73 % Source: Finnish Energy Industries

4 targets for the European Union By 2020, the EU should: increase the share of renewable energy sources to 20 % decrease greenhouse gas emissions by 20 % increase energy efficiency by 20 %

5 Energy Roadmap 2050 The European Commission issued its Energy Roadmap 2050 in December 2011 the aim is to reduce carbon dioxide emissions by 85 % by 2050 electricity has a vital role in reaching the goal: > total energy consumption decreases > electricity consumption increases

7 CO 2 -emissions of Power Production Source: Finnish Energy Industries

8 Objectives for Finland Objectives for Finland have been listed in the Long-Term Climate and Energy Strategy approved by the Government in November Strategy will be updated in the beginning of decreasing total energy consumption increasing the share of renewable energy to 38 % slow growth in electricity consumption (except for last two years there has been slow decrease due to recession) acquisition of electricity should primarily be based on own capacity > nuclear power will almost triple and wind power increase tenfold during the next years

14 Electricity production in Finland one week Hydropower Output (MW) Wind power Condensing power Combined heat and power Nuclear power Time (days)

15 The structure of electricity production in Finland will change in 2020 thus increasing the demand for regulation Output (MW) Power needed for regulation Wind power Combined heat & power and condensing power Nuclear power 0 Time (days)

19 Conclusions of upgradings Upgrading in connection with refurbishment is often very cost-effective Long periods on excess water improve the feasibility Possibility to improve safety and environment-friendliness by totally new solutions Increased value of power and improvement in turbine design have made it possible to achieve bigger power increase in the latest upgradings compared with the first ones
