Enersense has won the contract to build a new 400/30 kV substation for the Kannisto wind farm in Halsua, Central Ostrobothnia. The substation is part of OX2’s extensive programme, which includes three major wind farm projects in Southern Ostrobothnia, Finland.

A total of 20 turbines will be built for the Kannisto wind farm. Due to the scale of the project, the connection will be made directly to Fingrid’s 400 kV transmission grid, which requires a separate substation where the electricity produced by the turbines is converted to the grid’s voltage level. In addition, a new transmission line will be built from the substation to Fingrid’s station.

Enersense’s contract includes the design, procurement, construction, installations, testing and commissioning of the substation.

“We have solid experience in substation projects across Finland, and we will bring all this expertise to the Kannisto project as well. We are looking forward to working together and getting the project started,” says Anssi Niiles, Vice President of Enersense’s substation business.

Renewable energy projects are important for Finland

Wind power investments strengthen Finland’s energy self-sufficiency, reduce emissions and support the shift towards affordable, clean electricity. Large-scale new projects are also significant regional investments that create jobs and accelerate the modernisation of the electricity system.

“It’s great to be back in the renewable energy market. The sector has been somewhat quieter in recent years, so new investments are very welcome to support the growth of carbon-neutral electricity. We are grateful to OX2 for their trust,” says Sirpa Smids, Enersense’s Director of Renewables.

The contract will be recorded in the order backlog of Enersense’s Power Business Unit for the fourth quarter of 2025. Design work on the substation will begin in January 2026, and the substation will be commissioned at the end of 2027.
