>100 GWobserved

Value kindobserved — Reported measurements, counts, and specifications keep the precision and scope stated by their source; an exact specification is not treated as a range.
ScopeInquiries, not a bankable queue: Fingrid's conditional connection-agreement model applies at ≥250 MW, connection lines normally take ~36 months after agreement, and southern-Finland consumption connections were temporarily tight through 2027.
