Caruna, Finland’s largest electricity distribution system operator (DSO), has embarked on a €100 million-plus modernization project in partnership with Aidon Oy, part of the Gridspertise group. This agreement involves the delivery and deployment of 760,000 advanced electricity meters, scheduled for installation between 2027 and 2029.
