The Nordic Power Market is facing great changes in the coming decades. The strong growth of renewable energy is set to accelerate under the EU RES directive. At the same time nuclear expansion has taken major steps in both Finland and the Baltic region, but the change in attitude after the disaster in Japan will probably lead to nuclear shutdowns in Central Europe.

SKM Market Predictor will provide insights into the Nordic and Baltic long term development in a new extensive study!

During the last several months we have revised and extended our EMPS model covering the Nordic, European, Baltic and Russian power markets. We have assessed and simulated the significant foreseeable changes on each of the Nordic and Baltic countries. Based on the results of this work we present our new product - Long Term Power Outlook 30 years.

• Our estimation on increase in renewable investments under the EU Directive
