Overview
Vetelin Energia Oy is a Finnish energy company owned by the Municipality of Veteli. It describes itself as the energy company of the municipality, responsible for electricity supply within its network area, which covers the municipality of Veteli with the exception of the villages of Polso, Kivikangas and Nykänen. The company delivers electricity to more than 2,000 households and also sells electricity throughout Finland. In addition to electricity, it supplies district heating produced with biofuels in the central area of Veteli. The company operates as a local distribution system operator and electricity retailer. Its network area is geographically defined, and it maintains and develops the electricity network in that area. Vetelin Energia updates its electricity network development plan every two years and invites customers to review and comment on the latest plan. The plan describes how the network will develop over the following ten years and how the company responds to an electrifying society, a changing climate and customer needs. Vetelin Energia also engages in customer satisfaction monitoring. It has a three-year (2025–2027) follow-up programme and conducts customer satisfaction surveys to develop its operations and services over the long term. The company communicates with customers about network and metering issues; for example, it has reported remote-connection problems with some new e-meter electricity meters in parts of its area, including Forsbacka, Räyrinki, Sillanpää, Siponkoski and Torppa, requiring some meters to be replaced. As a municipally owned utility, Vetelin Energia is a local operator rather than a listed company. Its activities combine regulated electricity distribution with competitive electricity sales and district heating, serving both local households and customers elsewhere in Finland.
