Enersense has been selected as the main contractor for Fingrid’s Herva 400/110kV substation project in Finland, which will enable the connection of new wind farms in the area to the main grid.
The substation will be built in the municipality of Ii, in Northern Ostrobothnia, and it is part of a larger contract package.
The region has seen significant wind power development in recent years, and the new substation will support the transmission of energy from north to south.
Enersense is also constructing the Herva–Nuojuankangas power line, which will be connected to the substation.
The company has recently been involved in several projects in Northern Ostrobothnia.
The Simojoki substation was completed earlier this year, and Enersense is currently expanding Fingrid’s substations in Vaala and Muhos.
Anssi Niiles, director of substation operations at Enersense, said: “We’re pleased to see continuity in our ongoing projects, as we have a strong partnership with Fingrid.
“It’s great to be part of strengthening critical electricity infrastructure that is vital to the functioning of society, while also enabling the clean energy transition.”
The project will employ Enersense until the end of 2027. The contract, valued at approximately €15m, will be recorded in the order book of the Power segment for the second quarter of 2025.
