Abstract
The report studies the retirement of the power and heat production capacity which was in operation at the beginning of 1991. The plant by plant evaluation included industrial process power, district heating power and conventional condensation power, corresponding to the available capacity of 6550 HW during the peak load. Power production capacity which is classified as peak power and district heat output capacity were reviewed by the specified plant classes. Nuclear power and hydro power are not included in the study. The period under review covered the years 1991-2030. The point of time for the retirement was estimated in a holistic way based on the technical and economic facts. The accuracy of the determination of the retirement moment is estimated to be +-5 years during the period of 1991-2010. The point of time of the retirement will naturally change if the basic assumptions, such as fuel price ratios and fuel availability or industrial production sectors and volumes, have significant changes. The results are also affected by the possible extension of the natural gas network and the possible taxes levied on energy or emissions. These factors are not discussed further in this study. The retirement of the capacity will be faster

The retirement of the capacity will be faster if the valid environmental standards are made stricter in order to reach the reduction targets, 80 % in sulphur dioxide emissions and 30 % in nitrogen oxide emissions from the 1980 levels. Possible new stricter regulations on sulphur dioxide emissions are expected to come into force at the beginning of 2001, and nitrogen oxide emission regulations at the beginning of 1998.}
