Altrad is delighted to confirm that its latest acquisition Stork, has successfully secured a three-year contract (with two, one-year extension options) for Net Zero Teesside Power (NZT Power) and Northern Endurance Partnership (NEP) in the North-East of England.
The contract, which has recently commenced, will encompass the provision of quality services during the execution phase of the projects.
Once operational, NZT Power, a joint venture between bp and Equinor, could produce up to 742 megawatts of flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power – equivalent to the average annual electricity requirements of more than 1 million UK homes.
NEP, an incorporated joint venture between bp, Equinor, and TotalEnergies, is developing the onshore and offshore infrastructure needed to transport CO2 from carbon capture projects across Teesside and the Humber – collectively known as the East Coast Cluster - to secure storage under the North Sea.
Steve Hunt, regional director for Stork said: “We are pleased to have been selected to support this project which will produce flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power – equivalent to the average annual electricity requirements of more than 1 million UK homes.”
Pleasingly, this contract will allow Stork to continue its successful diversification agenda in the onshore UK industrial sector, wherein it provides a range of specialist integrity and quality related services.
Altrad’s CEO for the UK, Ireland, Nordics & Poland – Paudie Somers added: “We look forward to using our specialist skills and capabilities to support NZT Power and NEP during the execution phase of these landmark, low-carbon projects.”
