… open supply of electricity. Loss electricity Loss electricity includes electricity transmission and distribution losses. In addition, electricity items that do not target any specific operating site or a specific contractual partner on the basis of the measured data (e.g. possible unresolved meter errors, electricity thefts and non-agreed items, as well as items ending up in the grid company's delivery due to the seller's operations in accordance with section 102 of the Electricity Market Act) remain in the loss electricity curve. The share of the above-mentioned non-targeted electricity items in the amount of loss electricity is small, with the possible exception of the electricity consumption of items that end up in the network company's delivery due to the seller's activities. The amount of loss power at the 15-minute level is calculated in Datahub. The losses in the VES measurement range shall be calculated on the basis of the other calculated sums in the measurement range. Billable loss power centimetres cannot get negative values. The customer's annual loss electricity volume is estimated at 42-57 GWh. Electricity consumption in Vantaa is expected to increase in the coming years, but there is considerable uncertainty surrounding the forecast and thus also the amount of loss electricity. However, the Customer does not commit to any minimum purchase quantities, but purchases are made according to the Customer's needs. The annual volume of self-consumption electricity is approximately 1.0 GWh. However, the Customer does not commit to any minimum purchase quantities, but purchases are made according to the Customer's needs. Contract One supplier is selected as the Contractor. The contract period is estimated to be from 1 January 2027 to 31 December 2030 and includes a two (2) year option period from 1 January 2031 to 31 December 2032. Imbalance electricity is also included in the supply. Disposal of electricity shall be directed to a single place of use, whose place of use number the Customer shall notify the Supplier prior to the start of the delivery. At the time of submission of the contract notice, there are 30 places for use and the loss energy is counted as one place for use on this site. It shall be possible to add or remove spaces for self-consumption electricity during the contract period with the Customer's notice. Price hedging The object of the procurement is also a price hedging service to protect the physical purchase of electricity. The implementation of the price protection service starts after the signature of the procurement contract and ends at the end of the physical delivery of electricity.
