Development of networks is prioritised based on the customer needs in different network areas. Customer needs are closely related to the expansion and transformation of cities and communities. Working in close cooperation with municipalities, distribution ensures that its network development is aligned with long-term urban development.
Climate change affects also electricity distribution
There is reason to believe that climate change will also have an impact on the distribution business through increased weather-related disturbances. With a milder winter climate, the storm resistance of forests becomes weaker. This, in turn, might affect how network companies plan and build their networks for the future. Our distribution division closely follows climate statistics and includes climatic developments as a parameter in network planning.
