Fingrid Datahub carried out a major project to establish a centralized data exchange system for the Finnish electricity retail market: the Datahub.
The Datahub accelerates, clarifies, and enhances the overall flow of information in the electricity market in Finland.
In this centralized data exchange system for the retail electricity market, all key data and events related to electricity consumption are now gathered onto a single platform, where they are always up to date and accessible to all authorized parties.
As a result, the Datahub improves the operational capability of market participants.
On a broader scale, the Datahub also supports the implementation of EU regulations and enables data exchange mechanisms, for example, as renewable electricity production increases.

The Datahub implementation project was extremely demanding and multifaceted.
It involved a wide range of Finnish market participants, including around 80 electricity suppliers and more than 80 distribution network companies.
All parties followed the same timeline and sequence of actions during deployment.
Fingrid Datahub Oy and Solteq Utilities Consulting began a successful collaboration in 2020 to develop a systematic process and clear steps to onboard market participants to the Finnish Datahub.
The project utilized tools, methods, testing processes, and expertise developed by Solteq Utilities Consulting.
Detailed project and go-live plans were created, along with defined rehearsal cycles to ensure the successful completion of the project.
A tracking model was built to monitor activity progress, and it was used as an indicator of readiness for the actual Datahub go-live.
Experts from Solteq Utilities Consulting played key roles in executing the planned project phases.
Rehearsals and the go-live phase were completed according to the planned schedule.
The cooperation continues productively, paving the way for new shared development opportunities.
"Solteq’s expertise matched our needs well and supplemented our resources with professionalism.We are satisfied with our decision to rely on Solteq’s knowledge and services for this initiative.It was a pleasure to witness the mutual trust that developed within the winning team, among participants from different organizations and areas of expertise."
