"Onshore wind is currently the most economical way to generate electricity in Finland and Hitachi Energy significantly contributes to it with more than half of the generated wind power flowing through our transformers and grid connection solutions" says Matti Vaattovaara, Country Managing Director Finland at Hitachi Energy.
