Ministry warns of a small possibility of electricity shortage as rare cold spell grips Finland
THE MINISTRY of Economic Affairs and Employment on Thursday warned that there is a low likelihood of an electricity shortage as the extreme cold spell continues in Finland.
The shortage could be caused by a combination of several factors, the ministry stated: if domestic electricity production capacity does not suffice to cover demand at peak demand hours during the long and extreme cold spell and if disruptions in electricity transmission or production facilities occur simultaneously in production and import.
