The European Climate, Infrastructure and Environment Executive Agency (CINEA) has signed grant agreements with seven solar projects across Finland with a combined capacity of 212.99 MW. A total €27.5 million is being invested across the projects through the EU renewable energy financing mechanism, following successful bids in the EU's first cross-border solar tender held last year. The projects include two located in the South Ostrobothnia region of western Finland – a 74.03 MW plant on an area currently used for peat production and a 33 MW plant located on a peat bog. Elsewhere, a 20 MW ground-mounted solar park in Loukkaanaro will become the largest solar project in northern Finland, expected to run for at least thirty years. The other funded projects are a 40.16 MW site in Pöytyä, southwest Finland, a 30 MW park in the municipality of Tohmajärvi, located in the North Karelia region of eastern Finland, an 8 MW plant in the municipality of Nivala, central Finland, and a 7.8 MW plant in the city of Savonlinna, eastern Finland.
