Elvera Oy and Oulun Energia Sähköverkko Oy began their cooperation on electricity network contracting services at the beginning of 2024 with a three‑year agreement valid until the end of 2026. We have now decided to exercise the two option years included in the contract, meaning that the cooperation will continue until the end of 2028.
Oulun Energia Sähköverkko is responsible for electricity transmission and distribution to nearly 120,000 customers within its distribution network area. To ensure reliable electricity distribution, the current electricity network—over 4,000 kilometres in length—is systematically maintained and refurbished, and new network sections are built when necessary. The agreement with Elvera covers electricity network construction, maintenance, metering, fault repair and on‑call duties.
“Reliable and safe electricity distribution for our customers requires skilled and committed partners. Our cooperation with Elvera has met our expectations well, and the work has been systematic, high‑quality and aligned with our values. We appreciate Elvera’s professionalism, willingness to develop and responsible way of operating, which makes the adoption of the option years a natural continuation of our smooth cooperation,” says Olli Kujanperä, Head of Electricity Network at Oulun Energia Sähköverkko Oy.
“When we began working with Oulun Energia Sähköverkko, we expanded into northern Finland in one go. Cooperation has been smooth from the outset, and we share a common view of how we serve customers and what our shared objectives are. Opening a new office and recruiting staff in an entirely new region had its own challenges, but even in the early stages we received flexibility and support from Oulun Energia Sähköverkko,” says Ville Suomalainen, Customer Account Director at Elvera Oy.
