Enersense International Plc, a creator of zero-emission energy solutions, has entered into an agreement with Gigawatti Oy, a company responsible for wind power production for S Group, regarding maintenance and fault repair services for wind farms.

The agreement concerns maintenance and fault repair services for the years 2022-2027 for wind farms in Hoikkasuo, Jäneskeidas, Sarvisuo and Sarvankangas. The agreement includes farms’ power lines, substations as well as electrical and telecommunications networks.

Gigawatti Oy's Sarvisuo wind farm is the most high-powered wind farm in production in Finland. Sarvisuo park has 27 5.6 MW windmills with their combined power exceeding 150 MW.
