This contract also includes building a new waterway to the pumping station from the current intake dam.

During the full construction period, the old pumping station will remain operational.

NCC Infrastructure production manager Christer Stenson said: “The construction of the new pumping station is complicated with extensive excavations, diving work and underwater casting. This will require the combined solid expertise and experience possessed by NCC.”

Construction of the pumping station will commence in August, with work expected to finish in spring 2025.

This order will be registered by NCC’s Infrastructure business segment in Q3 2022.
