Energinet, which is responsible for the Danish electricity and gas grid, has entered into a five-year framework agreement with OJ Consulting Engineers. The agreement includes technical advice, professional supervision and construction management in connection with the implementation of construction and construction tasks at Energinet’s facility. This is what OJ Rådgivende Ingeniører write in a post on Facebook.

Three transformer stations on Lolland
The framework agreement means that the Horsens-based consulting engineering company will be responsible for the three substations that will ensure the electricity supply to the Fehmarntunnel’s own substation at the Fehmarntunnel. A total of approximately 30 kilometers of 132 kV cable is to be established from Nakskov to the transformer station in Rødbyhavn. Along the way, the power willt pass three substations in Gloslunde, Rødby and Rødbyhavn respectively, and it is the three substations that are part of the framework agreement between OJ Rådgivende Ingeniører and Energinet.

A blue stamp
– We are very happy to enter into the various framework agreements across the country, and we also see it as a quality seal of our approach to the projects and of our work and advice. In addition, we see it as a blue stamp that we as a company can live up to the high demands that are normally set in public tenders, says sales manager Morten Prinds from OJ Rådgivende Ingeniører.

Deeper collaboration than usual
In the Facebook post, OJ Rådgivende Ingeniører calls framework agreements an exciting and rewarding form of collaboration:

– With framework agreements, among other things, we get to build a good and trusting collaboration with our business partners, and we can thereby in many cases enter into a deeper collaboration than usual and act as the customer’s permanent advisor, who enters the projects early and who can therefore contribute with advice from the first idea to planning, execution and commissioning of a finished sustainable project, writes OJ Rådgivende Ingeniører in the post.

It is Spanish Elecnor that will be responsible for the construction of the transformer station, which will supply the tunnel’s technical facilities and the driving wires for the trains in the tunnel with up to 100,000 mWh per year.
