Meanwhile, mobile networks offering speeds of 300 Mbps were available to 60% of households in about 1% of Finland's land area. 5G base stations, which numbered almost 3,000 in total, could be found in 109 municipalities. At the same time, 100 Mbps 4G networks covered 17% of the land area and 93% of households.
Major road networks are also among the first areas to receive new mobile network technologies. In late 2020, 100 Mbps 5G networks covered 17% of Finland's main roads and highways and 18% of the railway network, while 100 Mbps 4G coverage was available on 57% of both networks.
The country has a competitive telecommunications market dominated by three key players: Elisa, Telia, and DNA. Elisa held the largest share of revenue from fixed-line, mobile, TV, and radio operations, at 37 percent in 2023. Telia Finland, part of Telia Company since 2017, followed closely, while DNA held 23 percent of the market.
The 5G market in Finland is dominated by three key players, Elisa, Telia, and DNA. The coverage of 5G in the country is challenged by a vast contrast between urban and rural areas.
5G networks divide coverage areas into smaller zones called cells, enabling devices to connect to local base stations via radio. Each station connects to the broader telephone network and the Internet through high-speed optical fiber or wireless backhaul.
Major suppliers of 5G radio and core systems included Altiostar, Cisco Systems, Datang Telecom/Fiberhome, Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia, Qualcomm, Samsung, and ZTE. Huawei was estimated to hold about 70 percent of global 5G base stations by 2023.

The marketing of non-5G services refers to the promotion of enhanced 4G networks that are presented as precursors or equivalents to 5G. Some mobile network operators marketed upgraded 4G technologies using terms that suggested 5G capability.
Samina Power Station, currently the largest of the domestic power stations, has been operational since December 1949. In 2011-2015, it underwent a reconstruction that converted it into a pumped-storage hydroelectric power station. In recent decades, renewable energy efforts in Liechtenstein have also branched out into solar energy production.
Lawena Power Station is the oldest in the country, opened in 1927. The power station underwent reconstructions in 1946 and 1987. Today, it also includes a small museum on the history of electricity production in Liechtenstein. Samina Power Station, currently the largest of the domestic power stations, has been operational since December 1949.
Liechtenstein has used hydroelectric power stations since the 1920s as its primary source of domestic energy production. By 2018, the country had 12 hydroelectric power stations in operation (4 conventional/pumped-storage and 8 fresh water power stations). Hydroelectric power production accounted for roughly 18 - 19% of domestic needs.
Liechtenstein's national power company is Liechtensteinische Kraftwerke (LKW, Liechtenstein Power Stations), which operates the country's existing power stations, maintains the electric grid and provides related services. In 2010, the country's domestic electricity production amounted to 80,105 MWh.
