Enersense and EPV Aurinkovoima Oy have signed an agreement on the maintenance of the Heinineva solar power park. Heinineva, located in Lapua, is one of Finland's largest solar power parks with a capacity of approximately 86 MWp and will produce more than 80 GWh of energy per year.

Enersense has previously cooperated with EPV Energy, the parent company of EPV Solar Power, and thus Heinineva's maintenance agreement deepens the partnership. Enersense is also responsible for the maintenance of EPV Alueverkko Oy's substations and transmission lines. The agreement now signed will be entered in the order backlog of Enersense's Power business in the fourth quarter of 2024.

"Heinineva's maintenance agreement strengthens our portfolio in the maintenance of renewable energy systems and is our largest project in terms of solar power. Solar power plants of this size are still relatively new in Finland, and we are proud to be among the first to secure the security of supply of this form of production as well. We already have strong expertise in the maintenance of solar power plants, and such a large production facility brings new, interesting operating methods from the maintenance perspective. The use of drones for panel field inspection and thermal imaging is one good example of how we can adapt to the new maintenance methods brought about by the energy transition alongside traditional substation maintenance," says Antti Toppinen, Sales Manager of substation maintenance at Enersense.

"Our selected service partner brings strong expertise and locality to Heinineva's service and continues EPV Group's long-term cooperation with Enersense now with a new production form," says Ari Soininen, CEO of EPV Aurinkovoima.
