KNESS and Green Genius have started a partnership to provide operation and maintenance services for high-voltage infrastructure in Latvia.

A 110/30 kV substation with a capacity of 126 MVA has been added to KNESS Baltic’s portfolio of facilities under servicing. This is a substation node for one of the country’s largest solar power plants, with a capacity of 120 MW. The facility is owned by Green Genius – a company that has been developing, building, and maintaining RES projects in five European countries for 20 years.

At the substation, KNESS Baltic team will provide a full range of O&M services, including key ones such as scheduled and corrective maintenance, 24/7 monitoring of equipment status via the SCADA system, warranty support and spare parts management, and coordination with transmission system operators (Augstsprieguma tīkls (AST)).

The partnership between KNESS and Green Genius in the field of substation maintenance is based on a shared commitment to high quality standards, professional approaches, and a strong sense of responsibility in ensuring the stable operation of energy infrastructure. We combine the expertise and over 15 years of international experience of both teams in the development and operation of power facilities. Together, we are advancing the industry and accelerating Latvia’s energy transition.
