At the end of 2014 wind power capacity in Finland was 631 MW, 268 wind turbines. Wind power production in 2014 was about 1.1 TWh which was 1.3 % of the Finnish electricity consumption*.
At the end of 2013 wind power capacity in Finland was 453 MW, 221 wind turbines. Wind power production in 2013 was about 771 GWh which was 0,9 % of the Finnish electricity consumption*.
(Capacity and number of turbines do not include those of small or used turbines that are not participating to statistics).
6.9.2013 there were 11 013 MW of wind turbine projects published in Finland. The share of offshore projects planned is 2974 MW.

Failure statistics analysis
This Master thesis, written for VTT with funding from Tekes, contains an analysis of the wind turbine statistics. The wind turbine statistics in Finland comprise data on monthly production and downtime from grid connected turbines. Statistics of production have been compiled since 1992 and the failure statistics since 1996. The failure statistics between years 1996 and 2008 are examined and contains data from 72 wind turbines.
