The cost of electricity consists of the electric energy (electricity sales), electricity distribution and the electricity tax. The electricity distributor is always a local network company that transmits the electricity to your home using its network and measures your electricity consumption. According to Finnish legislation, the electricity tax is included in the distribution invoice. Therefore, it is possible that you receive one electricity invoice from Fortum and another from the local network company. The local network charges you for the electricity distribution according to its price list and invoicing periods. For the electricity sales, the student’s invoice total will be 117€ (3 months × €39). When you signed your electricity contract with Fortum, we notified the distributor company of this. Therefore, you don't need to sign a separate electricity distribution contract. It becomes effective automatically once you enter into the contract with us.
If your local network company is Caruna, you will only get one invoice. In this case, Fortum will act as the invoicing company and charge you for the price of your student contract, Caruna's distribution fees, as well as taxes, all in one invoice.

...use our Helper Tool to find the best optionUnlike the electricity energy company that you can freely choose, the electricity distribution company is always your local provider that sends you its own separate bill. For example, if you are looking for an electricity contract in Helsinki, your electricity distribution company will automatically be the distribution company in Helsinki. Only if your local distribution company is Caruna (for example in Espoo), will you get one invoice instead of two as Fortum's customer.
Electricity distribution is paid according to the transmission tariffs of the local distribution company. These companies make sure that electricity is available at all times and possible power cuts are dealt with promptly.
If you are moving to Helsinki or already live there, you can freely choose any electricity company. However, the electricity that Fortum sells to it's clients is produced always carbondioxide free, which helps to fight against climate change. Fortum is also a reliable company, that encourages it's clients to consume electricity in a sustainable way.
Most people in Helsinki live in apartment buildings with district heating and hot water. This means that electricity bill will be moderate. However, you can save money and the envieronment with smart choices.
