Sweco will design one of continental Europe’s largest battery parks, Green Turtle, for the energy storage company GIGA Storage Belgium. This facility will have a storage capacity of 2,800 MWh of electricity. The park will make a significant contribution to the energy grid by providing stored renewable energy during periods of low solar and wind energy production — thereby reducing Belgium’s reliance on gas power plants. Sweco will deliver the design of the civil engineering and electrical engineering works of the battery energy storage system (BESS). “In Belgium and across Europe, Sweco’s experts are heavily involved in the expansion of renewable energy and in the adaptation of power systems and electricity grids, to support clients in meeting new capacity requirements as electrification intensifies,” says Erwin Malcorps, Business Area President of Sweco in Belgium. “This is a flagship project for us in Belgium and an important project in realising the energy transition in Europe, where access to large-scale electricity storage plays a vital role. Sweco has been selected as our partner for the integral design because of their solid expertise in battery energy storage systems (BESS),” says Joeri Siborgs, General Manager of GIGA Storage Belgium. Construction is set to begin in the summer of 2025 with completion of the new battery park expected by 2028. Click the link for more information about the project: https://lnkd.in/dnh5APTC

There are many emotions contained within the walls of a hospital – hope, happiness and joy, but also grief, worry and pain. It is a place where people come for various reasons, often when they are most vulnerable and sensitive, and where the staff have significant responsibility and high workloads. Therefore, the design of safe and well-thought-out healthcare environments is incredibly important to facilitate both work and recovery. Sweco has significant experience advising clients in the healthcare sector, from supporting industrial clients within the healthcare and pharma sector, to planning, designing, building and optimising hospitals and other health-oriented building projects. We create environments for difficult conversations and farewells, but also learning and technologically advanced treatment. Sweco’s current and past experience from healthcare projects include private and public clients across Europe. Through these projects, Sweco demonstrates its commitment to creating state-of-the-art healthcare facilities that not only serve the needs of the present but are also adaptable for the future, ensuring long-term value for patients, staff and the wider community.

De drinkwatervoorziening in het westelijk deel van Zuid-Holland staat onder druk. Waar momenteel al 150 jaar gebruik gemaakt wordt van de duinen als natuurlijke zuiveringsstap en voorraadbuffer, is de capaciteit van de duingebieden in de toekomst niet meer toereikend. Niet alleen neemt de vraag toe, ook de kwaliteit van het water dat wordt gebruikt voor de productie van drinkwater is niet meer vanzelfsprekend. Sweco’s experts gingen samen met drinkwaterbedrijf en duinbeheerder Dunea op zoek naar nieuwe bronnen om in de toekomst te kunnen voldoen aan de vraag naar drinkwater met de gewenste kwaliteit. #Drinkwater #Vitalewaterketen #SwecoNL

𝐒𝐰𝐞𝐜𝐨 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐤𝐭 𝐚𝐚𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐝𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐞𝐫 𝐯𝐨𝐨𝐫 𝐆𝐈𝐆𝐀 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐠𝐞 GIGA Storage gaat in Delfzijl een megabatterij bouwen op het voormalige terrein van aluminiumfabriek Aldel. Een team van bodem- en vergunningsexperts van Sweco werkt voor GIGA Storage aan allerlei vraagstukken. Sjoerd van Keulen is projectleider en specialiseert zich in Environmental Due Diligence. Hij richt zich op het inventariseren en beoordelen van milieurisico’s. “De vraag van GIGA Storage is enigszins diffuus”, vertelt Sjoerd. “Het gaat om een complex bodemdossier en we wisten vooraf niet waar we tegenaan zouden gaan lopen. Dus het is deels op basis van regie. Voor elke vraag hebben we een oplossing.” #SwecoNL #Energietransitie #Megabatterij #Bodemonderzoek

Sweco has been awarded a new contract to establish a new plant for the industrial production of mycoprotein in Finland for the Finnish biotech start-up company Enifer. Production starts in 2026, and the plant will be the world's first to utilise side streams from food production on a commercial scale in an industrial symbiosis. Sweco will deliver services for project management, plant design, building permits, procurement and construction management in a project valued at EUR 4.2 million. “Sweco is excited to be involved in enabling the food revolution, where domestic protein production that utilises side streams will reduce emissions from food production. Enifer’s production concept enables efficient protein production based on a circular economy, and we are grateful for the trust in our EPCM expertise. Our experience in food sector licensing will ensure fast implementation of this project,” says Thomas Hietto, Business Area President of Sweco Finland.

The hidden dangers of critical infrastructure failures during extreme weather events go beyond physical damage — they can have far-reaching consequences on entire cities, and the people within them. From power outages to water shortages, failures in one system can trigger a cascade of disruptions in others — leading to stranded people and immobilised cities. But what often goes unnoticed is the psychological toll. Extreme weather events and infrastructure failures leave communities grappling with prolonged anxiety, fear and uncertainty. A recent Sweco study highlights how European cities are mapping these risks, emphasising the importance of addressing both physical and emotional resilience. Understanding these cascading effects is crucial for building truly resilient cities in a world facing increasing climate unpredictability.
