Peab reinforces the water and wastewater network in Eskilstuna
Peab has been commissioned to build a new pump station with pressure lines for the Ekeby Wastewater Treatment Plant in Eskilstuna. The customer is Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö AB and the contract is worth SEK 335 million.
The existing wastewater pump station will be replaced with a new building, new pumps and new pipelines running into the pump station. The outgoing pipeline from the pump station to the intake pipeline at the Ekeby Wastewater Treatment Plant will also be replaced, as well as the water and wastewater pipelines in Rinmansgatan.
The water and wastewater project is Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö AB's largest to date. The project will result in fewer water shut-offs, reduce the risk of basements flooding and make Eskilstuna's continued growth in the eastern part of the municipality possible. The work will be carried out in stages to maximize efficient construction and minimize disruptions to accessibility and availability.
"We’re proud to contribute to improved capacity and reliability in Eskilstuna's pipeline network. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö and carry out the project efficiently, safely and sustainably," says Lars Lind, Region Manager Peab.
"The renewal of our largest pump station and connected pipelines is an important step towards a more sustainable future and ensures that our water and wastewater facility is robust and reliable for future generations. We’re pleased that by working together with Peab we can figure out the best solution to this challenge," says Anna Lundell Ekwall, Project Manager Water and Wastewater, Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö.
This construction contract was preceded by a so-called phase 1 contract, which means that in 2023 Peab was contracted to work with Eskilstuna Energi och Miljö to map out an optimized product with the right quality and to manage risks and uncertainties. The project is now entering phase 2 which is the implementation phase.
The project is a turnkey contract in partnering. Construction will begin immediately and is expected to be completed in the summer of 2027.
The project will be order registered in the fourth quarter 2024.
