News Summary:
On September 10, 2026, Telia Finland expanded its collaboration with Finnish energy company Helen by feeding recovered waste heat from its Pitäjänmäki data center into Helsinki's district heating network. This initiative, which recovers up to 90% of the data center's waste heat, warms 28,000 apartments, offices, and domestic water in the city. Previously, on September 5, Telia partnered with Insta to offer a service supporting the processing and protection of classified information, targeting public authorities, defense organizations, critical infrastructure operators, and other entities in Finland and NATO member countries. Earlier, on August 31, Telia Finland enhanced security for mobile authentication certificate (mobiilivarmenne) activation. From September, activating a mobiilivarmenne requires a second form of identification, such as a passport or ID card, in addition to bank credentials, addressing criminal misuse linked to eSIM subscriptions. This followed an August 27 demonstration by Telia and Patria of the remote operation of a Patria AMV armored vehicle at Finland's Parola military testing area, controlled from Tokyo, a distance of 7,800 km.
