Polarnode Kuopio Mustakorpi

PRJ-1312 · Site · Kuopio, Finland

Record last updated Oct 29, 2026

Scope and capacity

Polarnode’s proposed Mustakorpi development in Kuopio has an approximately 32-hectare design reservation within a 92.7-hectare EIA area. The operator advertises 200 MW grid capacity and a 2028 power target; the October 2026 programme’s approximately 250 MW availability figure remains unreconciled. The programme assesses approximately 385 MW IT and 500 MW total electricity demand, not approved capacity. The programme reports zoning began in spring 2026, insufficient fibre for the development and district heating at least 1 km away. EIA consultation opened October 21, with comments scheduled to close November 19, 2026.

Eia programme capacity scenarios context · Version B of the October 14, 2026 programme assesses VE1 at approximately 385 MW IT and 500 MW total electricity demand, with backup generator fuel input approximately 1,700 MW thermal. VE2 adds optional 200 MW electrical gas generation with indicative 465–515 MW thermal fuel input. These are maximum impact assessment alternatives, not approval, a selected configuration, commissioned capacity or current IT load. Electrical output, demand and thermal fuel input must not be added or converted.
