What the sources say
Status rests on Sungrow's word: "successful deployment" of 30 MW / 60 MWh on 16 May 2025. FRV's own Simo page (read 12 Oct 2026) still says phase 1 was "expected to be operative in Q1 2025" and gives the whole project as "In construction". Unit count: 26 (Sungrow; FRV page) against 24 (FRV release of Nov 2024). Energy-Storage.news (29 May 2025) is no longer used.

From the owners’, developers’ and builders’ own releases, council decisions and permit bulletins, read by Vitreous and checked against the owners’ own words on 12 October 2026; a bracket such as “(Energy-Storage.news only)” in a field means the trade press is still the only source for it. Fingrid publishes no meter, no price and no instruction per battery, so this page carries no money: what one megawatt is paid in Fingrid’s markets is on the markets page, for the whole market and never for a named battery.
