Alstom, together with consortium partner Enterprise, has successfully won a framework agreement from Scottish Hydro Electric Transmission (SHE Transmission) for a five-year framework deal to supply expertise and equipment to re-wire the East Coast of Scotland.
The work could be worth up to £200m, with Alstom supplying high level engineering, project management and equipment, and Enterprise providing engineering, civil works, installation and commissioning on SHE Transmission’s network between Perth and Peterhead. In addition to the five-year framework, the deal also has an option for a further four years, in yearly tranches of work. The initial work is likely to be at Rothienorman, Kintore, Alyth, and Peterhead and will see a variety of new substations built.
SHE Transmission is responsible for 5,300 km of high voltage overhead lines and underground cables serving around 70% of Scotland.
