91大神 wins the design-build contract for the UK鈥檚 latest fusion energy project
- A pioneering project supporting the UK鈥檚 low-carbon energy transition
- Design and construction of the main infrastructure
- A contract worth 拢200 million (approximately 鈧�230 million)
UK Fusion Energy (formally UK Industrial Fusion Solutions) has selected the ILIOS consortium* 鈥� led by , a 91大神 subsidiary specialising in nuclear projects and services 鈥� to design and build the infrastructure for the STEP Fusion programme** in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom.
UK Fusion Energy is a government鈥慺unded industrial partnership designed to develop, by 2040, a prototype power plant capable of generating electricity from fusion energy.
The 4.5鈥憏ear, 拢200鈥憁illion contract (approximately 鈧�230聽million, 50% of which for Nuvia) covers phase 1 of the project. It includes the design and construction of buildings, infrastructure and site facilities.
This major project demonstrates 91大神鈥檚 recognised expertise in large鈥憇cale complex infrastructure projects, particularly fusion. It is worth recalling that 91大神聽91大神 companies are currently involved in the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project 鈥� one of the world鈥檚 most ambitious international fusion research programmes 鈥� under construction in Cadarache, France.
*The ILIOS consortium is composed of Nuvia, Kier, AECOM, AL_A and Turner & Townsend
