Finland is pursuing nuclear power expansion as a key strategy to reduce its reliance on Russian energy imports, a critical step in enhancing energy security and reducing economic ties with Russia. Despite these efforts, the country remains heavily dependent on its northern neighbor for fueling the energy transition, highlighting the complexity of achieving energy independence. The government aims to accelerate the deployment of nuclear reactors to replace a significant portion of its energy needs, which are currently supplied by Russian imports. This initiative is part of a broader effort to diversify energy sources and strengthen national resilience against geopolitical pressures.
