Programme delivery partner role for upgrade to infrastructure at Capenhurst site
Costain has been chosen as programme delivery partner by Urenco to deliver new and upgraded infrastructure at its site in Cheshire.
The UK is to invest £196m into creating Europe’s first ever advanced nuclear fuel facility in Capenhurst.
The framework is expected to see contracts awarded to Costain over a minimum of three years and will see Costain lead and deliver an integrated programme for Urenco’s infrastructure investment activities.
Urenco’s Capenhurst site provides uranium enrichment services to produce fuel for civil nuclear power stations in the UK and around the world to generate low-carbon electricity.
Alex Vaughan, chief executive officer of Costain, said: “Costain has a long and successful track record in delivering critical national infrastructure that creates a sustainable future.
“This new role is an example of our strategic focus on growth in strong markets and building a resilient customer mix. We will draw on our expertise to ensure predictable, best-in-class delivery for Urenco, as we create a more prosperous, resilient and decarbonised UK.”
