Price of electricity in Finland peaks at 2.35€/kWh today. Keeping my tiny granny cottage warm costs me over 50 euros for a single day. It's negative 25C (-13F) outside.

That massive spike of 50c/kWh at the left looks tiny compared to today even though that's already insanely expensive

Finland is too much north to hope for efficient solar energy.

In winter yeah but we have long ass days in the summer and even in early spring they work surprisingly well as solar panels are more efficient in cold temperatures.

I'm summer Finland gets same amount of solar radiation as German
