Towards a Clean Energy System - REPower-CEST

The Clean Energy System Transition (REPower-CEST) project creates a comprehensive view of the solutions, impacts, implementation challenges and opportunities of a clean energy system replacing fossil fuels in Finland.

The project produces information, tools and service concepts needed to analyse, manage and solve the challenges and risks related to the environmental, economic and social dimensions of the clean energy transition.

The fundamental aim is to develop a roadmap based on a broad knowledge base for implementing a sustainable and fair clean energy transition in Finland by 2035.

The REPower-CEST project is part of the REPowerEU chapter of Finland's Recovery and Resilience Plan with funding of EUR 14 million. The research and development project will run for two and a half years.

It is coordinated by the Finnish Environment Institute (Syke) and the project partners are the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK) and VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland (VTT Ltd).

The Ministry of the Environment is the ministry responsible for the project in contacts with the European Commission.
