Finland uses a lot less fossil fuel than most countries. But it still has a lot to do to hit its ambitious green energy targets. The country''s commitment to biofuels is one of the chief reasons it''s ahead of many others. Finland gets 29% of all its energy needs from advanced biofuels. It also has extensive nuclear and hydro networks.

The electricity sector in Finland relies on nuclear power, renewable energy, cogeneration and electricity import from neighboring countries. Finland has the highest per-capita electricity consumption in the EU. [1] Co-generation of heat and electricity for industry process heat and district heating is common.
Finland''s per capita energy consumption is notably high, driven by its heavy industry sector and significant heating requirements due to its cold climate. In 2021, the industrial sector was the primary consumer of energy, accounting for 52% of Total Final Consumption (TFC)—above the International Energy Agency (IEA) average of 36%.
