Building power station in Gothenburg
AF Bygg Väst, a part of AF Gruppen Sverige, has been commissioned by the Port of Gothenburg to construct a new power station in Skandiahamnen, Gothenburg. The contract is a turnkey project with a contract value of SEK 129 million excluding VAT.
The project is part of the Port of Gothenburg’s preparations for the upcoming legal requirement for onshore power supply (OPS) to vessels in the Container, RoPax, and Cruise segments, which will come into effect in 2030.
The facility will enable future power supply to berths in Skandiahamnen and is a key measure in the port’s efforts to reduce emissions from shipping. The contract includes the construction of a power station with an incoming electricity capacity of 19 MVA.
“We are pleased to have been entrusted with contributing to a more sustainable port operation and look forward to initiating our first collaboration with the Port of Gothenburg,” says Bård Frydenlund, EVP Sweden at AF Gruppen.
The project will commence in the second quarter of 2025, with completion planned for March 2027.
