BASE PROSPECTUS


TEOLLISUUDEN VOIMA OYJ

(incorporated with limited liability in Finland)
EUR 5,000,000,000
Euro Medium Term Note Programme
___________________________________
This Base Prospectus has been approved by the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (the "CSSF"),
as competent authority under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 (the "Prospectus Regulation"), as a base prospectus drawn up in
accordance with Article 8 of the Prospectus Regulation and issued in compliance with the Prospectus Regulation for the purpose
of giving information with regard to the issue of notes (the "Notes") issued under the EUR 5,000,000,000 Euro Medium Term
Note Programme (the "Programme") described in this Base Prospectus during the period of twelve months after the date
hereof. The CSSF has only approved the Base Prospectus as meeting the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and
consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation. Such an approval should not be considered as an endorsement of the Issuer
nor as an endorsement of the quality of any Notes that are the subject of this Base Prospectus. Investors should make their own
assessment as to the suitability of investing in such Notes. The CSSF assumes no responsibility for the economic and financial
soundness of the transactions contemplated by this Base Prospectus or the quality or solvency of the Issuer. This Base
Prospectus is valid for a period of twelve months from the date of approval (the validity of the Base Prospectus will expire on
28 June 2023). Consequently, the obligation to supplement this Base Prospectus in the event of significant new factors, material
mistakes or material inaccuracies will not apply once this Base Prospectus is no longer valid. This Base Prospectus will be
published in electronic form on the website of TVO (https://www.tvo.fi/en/index/investors/financing/debtplanning.html).
Applications have been made for such Notes to be admitted during the period of twelve months after the date hereof to listing
on the official list and to trading on the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange. The regulated market of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange is a regulated market for the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU on markets in financial
instruments ("MiFID II"). Pursuant to Article 6(4) of the Luxemburg law on Prospectuses for securities dated 16 July 2019,
by approving this Base Prospectus, the CSSF assumes no responsibility as to the economic and financial soundness of the
transactions contemplated under this Base Prospectus or the quality or the solvency of the Issuer. The Programme also permits
Notes to be issued on the basis that they will not be admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation by any competent authority,
stock exchange and/or quotation system or to be admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation by such other or further competent
authorities, stock exchanges and/or quotation systems, as may be agreed with the Issuer.
The Issuer has a long term credit rating of BB+ from S&P Global Ratings Europe Limited ("S&P") with positive outlook and
a long term credit rating of BBB- with stable outlook from Fitch Ratings Ireland Limited ("Fitch"). Tranches of Notes (as
defined in "Terms and Conditions of the Notes") to be issued under the Programme may be rated or unrated. Where a Tranche
of Notes is rated, such rating will not necessarily be the same as the rating assigned to the Notes already issued. Where a
Tranche of Notes is rated, the applicable rating(s) will be specified in the relevant Final Terms. In general, European regulated
investors are restricted from using a rating for regulatory purposes if such rating is not (1) issued by a credit rating agency
established in the European Economic Area (the "EEA") and registered under Regulation (EU) No 1060/2009, as amended
(the "EU CRA Regulation") or (2) provided by a credit rating agency not established in the EEA but is endorsed by a credit
rating agency established in the EEA and registered under the EU CRA Regulation or (3) provided by a credit rating agency
not established in the EEA which is certified under the EU CRA Regulation. Similarly, in general, United Kingdom (the "UK")
regulated investors are restricted from using a rating for regulatory purposes if such rating is not (1) issued by a credit rating
agency established in the UK and registered under Regulation (EU) No 1060/2009 on credit rating agencies as it forms part of
domestic law of the UK by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the "UK CRA Regulation") or (2) provided
by a credit rating agency not established in the UK but is endorsed by a credit rating agency established in the UK and registered
under the UK CRA Regulation or (3) provided by a credit rating agency not established in the UK which is certified under the
UK CRA Regulation.
Each of S&P and Fitch is established in the EEA and is registered under the EU CRA Regulation. The ratings S&P and Fitch
has given to the Notes to be issued under the Programme are endorsed by S&P Global Ratings UK Limited and Fitch Ratings
Limited, respectively, which are established in the UK and registered under the UK CRA Regulation. In accordance with S&P's
ratings definitions available as at the date of this Base Prospectus on
https://www.spglobal.com/ratings/en/research/articles/190705-s-p-global-ratings-definitions-504352, an obligor rated 'BB+' is
less vulnerable in the near term than other lower-rated obligors. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties and exposure
to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions that could lead to the obligor's inadequate capacity to meet its financial
commitments. The rating may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the
rating categories. In accordance with Fitch's ratings definitions available as at the date of this Base Prospectus on
https://www.fitchratings.com/products/rating-definitions, an obligor rated 'BBB-' indicates that expectations of default risk are



currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse business or economic
conditions are more likely to impair this capacity.
A security rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to suspension, reduction or
withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.
Investing in Notes issued under the Programme involves certain risks. The principal risk factors that may affect the ability
of the Issuer to fulfil its obligations under the Notes are discussed under "Risk Factors" below.

IMPORTANT NOTICES
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO EEA RETAIL INVESTORS ­ The Notes are not intended to be
offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to
any retail investor in the European Economic Area (the "EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means
a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive
2014/65/EU ("MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97 (the "IDD"),
where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of
MiFID II. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (the
"PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail
investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making
them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
PROHIBITION OF SALES TO UK RETAIL INVESTORS ­The Notes are not intended to be offered,
sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any
retail investor in the UK. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a
retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU) No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic
law by virtue of the EUWA; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services
and Markets Act 2000, as amended ("FSMA") and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to
implement Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as
defined in point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by
virtue of the EUWA. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No
1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the
"UK PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail
investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them
available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
SINGAPORE SFA PRODUCT CLASSIFICATION ­ In connection with Section 309B of the Securities
and Futures Act 2001 (the "SFA") and the Securities and Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations
2018 (the "CMP Regulations 2018"), unless otherwise specified before an offer of Notes, the Issuer has
determined, and hereby notifies all relevant persons (as defined in Section 309A(1) of the SFA), that the
Notes are 'prescribed capital markets products' (as defined in the CMP Regulations 2018) and Excluded
Investment Products (as defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products
and MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendations on Investment Products).
Product Governance under Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended)
The Final Terms (as defined below) in respect of any Notes may include a legend entitled "MiFID II Product
Governance" which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels
for distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending
the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the target market assessment; however, a
distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect
of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the target market assessment) and determining appropriate
distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue of Notes about whether, for the purpose of the MiFID
Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the "MiFID Product Governance
Rules"), any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but otherwise
neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the
purpose of the MiFID Product Governance Rules.
Product Governance under UK MiFIR
The Final Terms in respect of any Notes may include a legend entitled "UK MiFIR Product Governance"
which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels for distribution
of the Notes are appropriate. Any distributor should take into consideration the target market assessment;
however, a distributor subject to the UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules is responsible for undertaking
its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the target market
assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the UK MiFIR
product governance rules set out in the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance
Sourcebook (the "UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules"), any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a
10232743564-v10
- iii -
70-41036211




manufacturer in respect of such Notes, but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their
respective affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the UK MIFIR Product Governance Rules.
EU Benchmark Regulation
Interest and/or other amounts payable under the Notes may be calculated by reference to certain reference
rates. Any such reference rate may constitute a benchmark for the purposes of Regulation (EU) 2016/1011
(the "EU Benchmark Regulation"). If any such reference rate does constitute such a benchmark, the Final
Terms will indicate whether or not the benchmark is provided by an administrator included in the register
of administrators and benchmarks established and maintained by ESMA pursuant to Article 36 (Register of
administrators and benchmarks) of the EU Benchmark Regulation. The registration status of any
administrator under the EU Benchmark Regulation is a matter of public record and, save where required
by applicable law, the Issuer does not intend to update the Final Terms to reflect any change in the
registration status of the administrator.

Notes. Each recipient of this Base Prospectus or any Final Terms shall be taken to have made its own
investigation and appraisal of the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Issuer.
Each potential investor in the Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own

and risks of investing in the Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference in

particular financial situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact the Notes will have on its
overall investment portfolio;
(c)
have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the Notes

currency;
(d)

70-41036211




Offers of Notes
This Base Prospectus has been prepared on the basis that any offer of Notes in any Member State of the
European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Regulation (each, a "Member State")
will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Regulation, as implemented in that Member
State, from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. Accordingly any person making or
intending to make an offer in that Member State of Notes which are the subject of an offering contemplated
in this Base Prospectus as completed by Final Terms or a Drawdown Prospectus in relation to the offer of
those Notes may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to
publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Regulation or supplement a prospectus pursuant
to Article 23 of the Prospectus Regulation, in each case, in relation to such offer. Neither the Issuer nor any
Dealer has authorised, nor do they authorise, the making of any offer of Notes in circumstances in which
an obligation arises for the Issuer or any Dealer to publish or supplement a prospectus for such offer.
In connection with the issue of any Tranche of Notes, the Dealer or Dealers (if any) named as the
Stabilising Manager(s) (or persons acting on behalf of any Stabilising Manager(s)) may over allot
Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher
than that which might otherwise prevail. However, stabilisation may not necessarily occur. Any
stabilisation action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the terms
of the offer of the relevant Tranche of Notes is made and, if begun, may cease at any time, but it must
end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the relevant Tranche of Notes and 60
days after the date of the allotment of the relevant Tranche of Notes. Any stabilisation action or over-
allotment must be conducted by the Stabilising Manager(s) (or persons acting on behalf of any
stabilising Manager(s)) in accordance with all applicable laws and rules.
Forward-looking statements
This Base Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements that reflect the current views of TVO
with respect to the financial condition, results of operations and business of TVO and certain of the plans,
intentions, expectations, assumptions, goals and beliefs of TVO regarding such items. These statements
include matters that are not historical fact and generally, but not always, may be identified by the use of
words such as "aims", "believes", "expects", "are expected to", "anticipates", "intends", "estimates",
"should", "will", "will continue", "may", "is likely to", "plans", "targets" or similar expressions, including
variations and the negatives thereof or comparable terminology. Other forward-looking statements can be
identified in the context in which the statements are made.
Such forward-looking statements are based on assumptions, present plans, estimates, projections and
expectation of TVO and are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Examples of these risks, uncertainties
and other factors include, but are not limited to those discussed in section "Risk Factors". Prospective
investors should be aware that forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and
that TVO's actual, financial condition, business, results of operations and the development of the industry
in which it operates may differ significantly from those predicted or suggested by the forward-looking
statements contained in this Base Prospectus. In addition, even if TVO's financial condition, results of
operations, and business and the development of the industry in which it operates are consistent with the
forward-looking statements contained in this Base Prospectus, those results or developments may not be
indicative of results or developments in any subsequent periods. Should one or more of these or other risks
or uncertainties materialise, or should any underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, the actual financial
condition, results of operations or business of TVO or its ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes
could differ materially from those described herein as anticipated, believed, estimated or expected.
The Issuer expressly disclaims any obligation to update forward-looking statements or to adjust them in
light of future events or developments, save as required by law or regulation.

exchangeable for a Permanent Global Note or, if so specified in the
relevant Final Terms, for Definitive Notes. If the TEFRA D Rules are

and/or any other relevant clearing system and registered in the name of a
nominee for such depositary or common depositary and will be
exchangeable for Individual Note Certificates in accordance with its

Each Note represented by a Global Registered Note will either be: (a) in
the case of a Note which is not to be held under the new safekeeping
structure ("New Safekeeping Structure" or "NSS"), registered in the
name of a common depositary (or its nominee) for Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system and
the relevant Global Registered Note will be deposited on or about the
issue date with the common depositary; or (b) in the case of a Note to be
held under the New Safekeeping Structure, be registered in the name of a
common safekeeper (or its nominee) for Euroclear and/or Clearstream,
Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system and the relevant
Global Registered Note will be deposited on or about the issue date with
the common safekeeper for Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg.
Currencies:
Notes may be denominated in euro or in any other currency or currencies,
subject to compliance with all applicable legal and/or regulatory and/or
central bank requirements. Payments in respect of Notes may, subject to
such compliance, be made in any currency or currencies other than the
currency in which such Notes are denominated.
Status of the Notes:
Notes will be issued on an unsubordinated basis.

Issue Price:
Notes may be issued at any price on a fully paid basis, as specified in the
relevant Final Terms. The price and amount of Notes to be issued under
the Programme will be determined by the Issuer and the relevant
Dealer(s) at the time of issue in accordance with prevailing market

Where Notes have a maturity of less than one year and either (a) the issue
proceeds are received by the Issuer in the United Kingdom or (b) the
activity of issuing the Notes is carried on from an establishment
maintained by the Issuer in the United Kingdom, such Notes must: (i)
have a minimum redemption value of £100,000 (or its equivalent in other
currencies) and be issued only to persons whose ordinary activities
involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of investments
(as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses or who it is
reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or dispose of investments
(as principal or agent) for the purposes of their businesses; or (ii) be
issued in other circumstances which do not constitute a contravention of
section 19 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA")
by the Issuer.
Redemption:
Notes may be redeemable at par or at such other Redemption Amount,
which shall not be less than par, as may be specified in the relevant Final
Terms.
Optional Redemption:
Notes may be redeemed before their stated maturity at the option of the
Issuer (either in whole or in part) and/or the Noteholders to the extent (if
at all) specified in the relevant Final Terms.
Tax Redemption:
Except as described in "Optional Redemption" above, early redemption
will only be permitted for tax reasons as described in Condition 9(b)
(Redemption and Purchase - Redemption for tax reasons).
Interest:
Notes may be interest-bearing or non-interest bearing. Interest (if any)
may accrue at a fixed rate or a floating rate or other variable rate and the
method of calculating interest may vary between the issue date and the
maturity date of the relevant Series.
Denominations:
No Notes may be issued under the Programme which (a) have a minimum
denomination of less than EUR 100,000 (or nearly equivalent in another
currency), or (b) carry the right to acquire shares (or transferable
securities equivalent to shares) issued by the Issuer or by any entity to
whose group the Issuer belongs. Subject thereto, Notes will be issued in
such denominations as may be specified in the relevant Final Terms,
subject to compliance with all applicable legal and/or regulatory and/or
central bank requirements.
Negative Pledge:
The Notes will have the benefit of a negative pledge as described in
Condition 5 (Negative Pledge).
Cross Default:
The Notes will have the benefit of a cross default as described in
Condition 13 (Events of Default).
Taxation:
All payments in respect of Notes will be made free and clear of
withholding taxes of Finland unless the withholding is required by law.
In that event, the Issuer will (subject as provided in Condition 12
(Taxation)) pay such additional amounts as will result in the Noteholders
receiving such amounts as they would have received in respect of such
Notes had no such withholding been required.
Governing Law:
English law.
