Connection to the main grid

We implement main grid connections based on our customers need and ensure that the main grid and customer networks are compatible. We guarantee you electricity transmission capability at the connection points.

Connecting to the main grid has multiple steps. Connections are planned at the early phase in cooperation with the customer. Based on the information gathered from the customer, our experts examine customer connection possibilities and agree on the connection solution together with customer. When planning the connection solution, we take into consideration the reliability of the grid, transmission capacity, electrical safety, environmental effects as well as overall costs. Fingrid’s General Connection Terms (YLE) defines requirements for main grid connections.

During the connection planning phase, more detailed connection plans are required. Customer checks the plans with Fingrid, after which construction work can begin. Commissioning of the connection is agreed in good time with Fingrid’s operational organisation.

With up-to-date technical information exchange we ensure the best possible and technically safe result.
