Finland has a significant wind power potential at least 2 kilometers

From the reader. Unlimited organizations of unlimited wind power construction experience (KL 17.2) a threat to improving the social acceptability and safety distance of the wind power included in the government program.

A fixed minimum protection distance is not a threat to a green transition, economy or wilderness.

Interest organizations mistakenly claim that wind power monitoring – which is outdated, incomplete and often abused – works well to determine the project -specific safety distance.

A safety distance required

Noise modeling has often led to underestimation of noise level and thus too short safety and noise problems.

Everyone in wind power projects knows that the current planning and environmental impact assessment procedures do not ensure that the projects are located sustainable for nature and society.

A safety distance is also needed to combat the harmful, landscape, and property protection and to take into account the well-being of the residents.

Report of the Ministry of the Environment compiled a member of the Finnish renewable Fcg. According to it, the average safety distance based on noise modeling is only 800 meters. The design power plants are already 300-350 meters high.

According to the report, Finland can accommodate 6-9 times the amount of wind power at a distance between 2,000 and 2,500 meters.

Considerable potential

However, interest organizations want Finland to stick to an insufficient 800 to 1,000 meter safe distance in order to secure 16,000 to 19,000 new ground wind sites and thus the adequacy of electricity production.

The defective basic assumption is that all electricity production is based on ground wind power.

Also The EU Commission’s study (2025) According to Finland, Finland has a significant 430 terawatt -hour ground wind power potential, even if a protection zone at least 2,000 meters is used in Finland.

We need a national minimum distance of at least 2,000 meters to secure the rights of each resident, regardless of the municipality.

We cannot only rely on the kindness, familiarity and accessibility of municipal decision -makers in defining a possible municipal safety distance – let alone the noise modeling of the consultants of wind power companies.
