1.2 TWhdata-centre electricity · 1.5% of national generation · grade B, Derived

Finland's data centres draw 1.2 TWh of electricity a year, which places it 28th of the 33 countries this atlas carries a figure for.

That is 1.5% of everything the country generates — above the 1.2% median across those countries.

Set against 0.3 GW of installed capacity, that implies a 49% load factor.

One metro is tracked here: Helsinki, at 190 MW and under construction.

190 MW of that is not yet operating: it is under construction or still an announcement.

Its strongest showing anywhere in the atlas is Power & Grid on the control basis, at #11 of 12.

It does not register at all on Silicon, Memory & Storage or Networking.

One supplier is domiciled here, Wärtsilä, booking roughly $7bn.

Its single strongest grip on the buildout is On-site power & backup, where firms domiciled here hold 8% of global supply in a sub-layer weighted 0.45 for how hard it is to substitute.

About $2bn of AI infrastructure investment has been announced for Finland, though announced is not built — that figure is graded C.

Where Finland ranks

The same tables read three ways. A country can lead one basis and be invisible on another, and that gap is the whole point of the atlas.

Supply positions

Share of each global sub-layer held by firms domiciled here, and how hard that sub-layer would be to substitute. Those two multiplied are what the control basis ranks on.

Revenue is the group or segment figure closest to each tier's perimeter. Segment boundaries differ between issuers, so treat the split as indicative.
