Since the beginning of the century, the carbon intensity of the power sector in Finland has experienced an overall decreasing trend, despite some oscillation. In 2022, Finland's power sector emissions stood below 131 grams of carbon dioxide per kilowatt-hour (gCO₂/KWh) of electricity generated, a decline of over 65 percent in comparison to the 377 gCO₂/KWh peak registered in 2003. In 2022, the power sector in Finland had one of the lowest carbon intensities within the European Union.
