Metsähallitus announced that it would launch four new offshore wind farm projects in the Gulf of Bothnia, including an area off Siikajoki, and that preliminary studies and pre‑development work were already under way in these zones. As part of this early development phase, Metsähallitus selected the Geological Survey of Finland (GTK) after a tendering process to carry out seabed soundings that will inform later design and permitting.
