For the EU to become a leader in climate policy, strong coordination between the EU institutions and the member states is required. Despite its uninspiring name, the Governance of the Energy Union may turn out to be a key instrument in the EU energy and climate policy; perhaps more important than was initially expected. In addition to the specific obligations, the importance the member states and instituti...https://tem.fi/en/-/eu-n-energia-ja-ilmastopolitiikan-hallintomalli-hioo-kyntensa-tama-vuosi-nayttaa-vahvasti-suunt-2

7.8.2025 | Finland is known as a country of responsible use of nuclear energy. Safety comes always first. Responsibility includes ensuring the funds required for nuclear waste management and for the decommissioning of facilities. An extensive legislative reform is, however, required to streamline regulation and licensing. The reform process is also driven by the need to take account of new technologies and the profitability challenges of the sector.https://tem.fi/en/-/column-reform-of-nuclear-energy-legislation-to-streamline-regulation-and-prepare-the-ground-for-future-projects

System integration - a new key theme for energy policy - Ministry of Economic Affairs and Employment
Climate neutrality requires that we stop using fossil fuels and increase the use of intermittent renewable energy. Different energy systems should be strongly interlinked to secure the functioning of energy systems and improve their efficiency, with due consideration for the large-scale needs of industrial production. However, we must also beware of the pitfalls on the long path towards sector integration.https://tem.fi/en/-/system-integration-a-new-key-theme-for-energy-policy -

As an interim target for reaching climate neutrality by 2050, the EU wants to tighten the emission reduction target from 40% to at least 55% by 2030. Although it seems that the EU will exceed the original target, this constitutes a major change. In particular, the way emission reductions are implemented has a major impact on how much the transition will cost and how these costs will be distributed between countries.https://tem.fi/en/-/fit-for-55-what-are-the-best-ways-to-cut-emissions-

Recently published scenarios show that we have a bumpy road ahead to climate neutrality. These scenarios also help us to grasp the magnitude of the climate challenge. To meet the commitments of the Paris Agreement on climate change, we need to take determined action to reduce greenhouse gases. Although we are currently nowhere near the desired level globally, Finland is pursuing ambitious climate goals, both nationally and in its role as the Presidency of the Council of the European Union.https://tem.fi/en/-/polku-kohti-ilmastoneutraaliutta-tuoreet-skenaariot-kuvaavat-haasteen-kokoluokkaa
