Green electricity contracts come in four distinct flavours in Finland: fossil-free (nuclear + renewables), 100 % renewable (wind, solar, hydro), carbon-negative (offsets over 100 %), and 100 % wind (traceable to specific wind farms). This guide explains the differences, shows the cheapest options and reveals what ”origin guarantee” actually means.

Frequently asked questions
Does green electricity really reduce my CO2 footprint?
Yes, indirectly. Each origin guarantee funds a renewable-energy plant. Over time, growing demand shifts the entire electricity mix toward cleaner sources.
Is carbon-negative better than fossil-free?
From a climate perspective, yes. Fossil-free means no fossils in production. Carbon-negative means the company compensates >100 % of production emissions — net effect is lower atmospheric CO2.
Can I trace my electricity to a specific wind farm?
With Vihreä Älyenergia Vire Tuuli, yes — the contract is 100 % wind-sourced via origin guarantees. Other green contracts pool multiple sources.
