Sweco to increase security for Swedish nuclear power

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.
