The international conference on September 20th-21st, 2012 in Helsinki investigates the role of consumption behaviour, regulatory steering and support mechanisms, and innovative user-friendly solutions in terms of their contribution to energy efficiency and sustainable development. 30.11.2011 Data centres could save millions through energy-efficiency A Finnish ICT collaboration project concludes that energy efficiency in data centres can be improved by as much as fifty per cent. For individual data centres this would mean annual savings of thousands of megawatt hours and hundreds of thousands of euros. At the start of 2011, the ethanol content of the 95 octane petrol, the best-selling petrol in Finland, will go up. The increase of the bio-portion in petrol is one of the measures aimed at combating climate change. 26.5.2010 Launch of E10 petrol planned for 2011 in Finland – New Petrol Suitable for Most Passenger Cars Combating against the climate change, Finland is determined to increase the share of biofuels in road transport in line with the EU resolutions. As from January 2011, the E10 petrol with up to 10 percent v/v ethanol will be the standard petrol quality in Finland provided that the necessary law reforms are finalized in time. 10.5.2010 Bioenergy share must be increased, but at a reasonable price The CEO of Stora Enso, Jouko Karvinen, agrees with Finland’s goal to raise the bioenergy share in total energy production, but he demands that the Finnish decision makers have to make sure that the biomass pricing does not unreasonably escalate at the same time.
