In which way is Finland a green energy hub?

If I look at [1] and [2] I see that in 2019 Finland's energy use was 55% fossil based. Sweden's was 31%. Coal was 5.10% for Finland, 0.20% for Sweden.

ps. I see there's worse... Germany 77.42% fossils, coal 17.53%. Still, I never had an impression Finland is a green energy hub (no waterfalls, no sun in winter). It is a green hub though.

These energy numbers seem to include fossil fuel use for energy used in things like heating and transportation. In the context of the article (battery storage), I think Finland is referred to being a hub of green _electricity_. Finlands electricity came from 18.64% fossil fuels in 2019, as per the same page. And Germany's electricity came from 47.43% fossil fuels.
