Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy has secured a long-term, 20-year contract to provide full-scope operation and maintenance services for a 135-MW Senvion wind farm in Victoria, Australia, ensuring support continuity and stable operations to maximize the customer’s business case.
Under the agreement, the company will provide remote monitoring, supply chain access and specialty tooling, design and engineering support, as well as software updates.
