The Supreme Court of Finland allowed the claim for compensation regarding the decrease in land value outside the right-of-way. The applicant argued that the construction of a 400 kV power line, alongside existing lines, significantly diminished the property's value. The court ruled that such substantial infrastructure projects justify compensation for the resulting loss in land value.
