Yeah... It's only 10% I wrote that on my OP as well But 10% can actually be a lot if you have a tight power grid. Certain inelastic comodities swing in price a lot with even a tiny shortage or oversupply from balance and it is always a problem But seems like Finland has options to offset this 10% so that's good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweden might help them out or import gas from Norway.

Benji 20,113 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Russia is about to become so irrelevant if Europe manages to successfully phase out its reliance on Russian gas and electricity The attack on Ukraine has been the ultimate backfire in recent Russian history.
