Energy advice service

Regional energy advice has been given since May 2019 in all Finnish provinces (except Åland). Each province has its own energy adviser who helps households, housing associations, municipalities and small and medium enterprices (SMEs) with energy matters free of charge. The consultation is financed and supervised by the Energy Agency, and Motiva Oy’s expertise and tools are utilized in the consultation. In addition to regional advisers, energy advice to consumers is provided by Motiva’s nationwide Ask about energy -advice service.

In Northern Savo area, advice is given by the city of Kuopio. We offer free and impartial energy advice to residents, municipalities and SMEs in the entire North Savo region. Within the framework of the consultation, municipalities and SMEs in the region are informed about energy efficiency agreements and the benefits of joining them, and energy counseling aimed at consumers is carried out.
