The deal marks a significant commitment to renewable energy sourcing in Finland. 

Exilion investment manager Tommi Riski stated: “We are happy to support the sustainability of Colgate-Palmolive’s operations with Finnish wind energy. Axpo makes it possible to sell electricity with a long-term contract that enables a predictable cash flow for the institutional investors of Exilion Tuuli.”  

Axpo Nordic has been a frontrunner in the Nordic and Baltic energy markets with a focus on electricity trading, renewable energy solutions and energy-related services. 

With 24 terawatt hours (TWh) of renewable power from wind and solar under management and handling 3.5GW of renewable power annually, Axpo Nordic continues to expand its portfolio and influence in the region’s transition towards cleaner energy sources.  

In December 2024, Axpo Nordic and Norway-based Hydro Energi entered a ten-year contract to supply 2.63TWh of electricity to Hydro. 

The long-term agreement, set from 2026 to 2035, will see Axpo delivering electricity to Hydro in the Swedish price area SE2, bolstering Hydro’s renewable energy portfolio.
