Fingrid Oyj project manager Rami Isomäki said: “Finland’s extensive wind power investments demand a large capacity from the national grid.

“Some of the power lines need to be renewed, and new ones have to be built. In order to strengthen the power line starting from the Siikajoki substation, that section will be renewed with a double-strength power line and the old wooden columns replaced with new steel columns.”
