Sweco to increase security for Swedish nuclear power

Sweco is being engaged by Ringhals to improve the security in the distribution plant at Ringhals 1. The assignment is worth a little more than SEK 160 million and will employ more than 20 consultants from Sweco through 2012.

Between 2002 and 2012, Ringhals is investing SEK 13 billion in increased security with increased electricity production as the goal. Sweco is being engaged for project and assembly management as well as facility construction in connection with security heightening measures at the distribution plant at Ringhals 1.

”Sweco has a great deal of experience in carrying out complex projects where many partners are involved and where it is important that the normal operation is disturbed to the smallest extent possible,” says Erik Severin, Managing Director for Sweco Energuide.

The work is a continuation of the improvements to the distribution plant, which were initiated in 2006. The assignment will provide Sweco with good conditions for continuing with the successful competence reinforcement that has occurred in western Sweden in recent years.
