Melbourne: Senvion Australia has secured a 15-year extension to the Service Contract for Meridian Energy Australia’s Mt Mercer Wind Farm. The contract extension will see Senvion continue to provide maintenance services to the wind farm through to 2035.

To look after the wind farm, Senvion has an established local Service Centre that has provided attractive employment opportunities for local people.

The extended service contract with Meridian Energy is great news for our business, and a strong endorsement of the performance of our local team. We are very proud to extend our working relationship with Meridian.”
