Energy

Delivering highways infrastructure that improves connectivity, resilience and journey reliability.

What we do

Working with developers, energy providers and delivery partners, we deliver civil engineering solutions that support the UK’s evolving energy infrastructure.

Our expertise spans battery energy storage facilities (BESS), substations, enabling works and associated infrastructure, with experience of delivering works within highly regulated nuclear environments. Combining engineering expertise, self-delivery capability and collaborative delivery, we help bring new energy assets into operation safely and efficiently while supporting a more resilient and sustainable energy network.
