Energy

As a highly experienced building and infrastructure contractor, we have the core skills, people and supply chain partnerships to deliver bespoke solutions in the energy sector.

Working with our partners, operating equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and closely with our customers, we integrate design and construction capabilities – providing core building, civil engineering and utilities expertise. We also offer specialist in-house piling and ground engineering, fabrications and MEP (mechanical, electrical and public health engineering) services.

We make sure that what we do makes a clear contribution to society. That means working with integrity – fairly, transparently, safely and with a firm eye on leading the way in developing climate-smart net-zero solutions.

Combining our global expertise and collaborative local mindset, we find ways to design, plan and construct challenging projects that deliver cost-savings and meet the needs of customers and end-users.  

We have an impressive portfolio of energy projects, including in the fields of high voltage sub-stations, high voltage cable tunnels and both high pressure transmission and medium pressure distribution gas pipeline projects.

Our global experience

We’re drawing on the expertise of our Skanska colleagues globally in support of the UK as it embarks on a major programme of investment in renewable energy.

The construction industry has a key role to play so these new sources of power can be switched on, exactly when it’s needed. This includes delivering major civil engineering and buildings for High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) converter stations – on time, every time.

Find out how we’re collaborating with our Skanska teams overseas, bringing knowledge and foresight to our work in the UK.
