Frequently asked questions
Which is cheaper long-term: spot or fixed?
Spot has been cheaper in Finland 7 out of 10 years (2015–2024), with average savings of about 2 c/kWh over the period. But in crisis years (2021, 2022) fixed was significantly cheaper.
Can I switch mid-contract?
Spot: yes, 2-week notice, no fee. Fixed-term: yes but with a penalty (typically €50–200 + remaining basic fees).
Is hybrid a middle ground?
Yes. Fortum Duo, Oomi Jousto and Hehku Jousto combine a fixed base with a consumption-effect component. You keep part of the fixed-price security while benefiting from off-peak usage.
