Energiantarpeisiin

Energiantarpeisiin is a Finnish grammatical form used primarily in energy policy and related discourse. It is the illative plural form of energiantarve (energy need, energy demand). The base term energiantarve denotes the overall requirement for energy by a population, economy, or sector, including electricity, heating, transportation fuels, and other energy services. Energiantarpeet is the nominative plural. Energiantarpeisiin is used when the discourse moves toward or references the needs themselves as a target of action, such as investments, measures, or planning steps directed at those needs.

In Finnish, the illative plural suffix -iin attaches to the plural stem energiantarpeet to yield energiantarpeisiin. The usage is common in policy documents, planning studies, and analyses that discuss how to meet or address energy demand. Examples include phrases like investoinnit energiantarpeisiin (investments toward energy needs) or vastata energiantarpeisiin (to respond to energy needs). The term is not a technical concept with a separate definition beyond the idea of energy demand; rather it is a grammatical form that frames actions in relation to energy needs.
