Finland also has a lot of hydro which countries drenched in sunshine usually do not.

Finland only has 60 hydro power stations over 10MW, only ten of those are over 100MW and they all are under 200MW.

It’s nowhere enough and there aren’t any places to build more.

For reference current energy production is 7500MW in Finland.

With draughts becoming more common due to climate change, why should Finland rely on a solution that is going to be less reliable going forward?
