VINCI Wins The Design-Build Contract For The UK's Latest Fusion Energy Project

VINCI wins the design-build contract for the UK's latest fusion energy project

• A pioneering project supporting the UK's low-carbon energy transition
• Design and construction of the main infrastructure
• A contract worth £200 million (approximately €230 million)

UK Fusion Energy (formally UK Industrial Fusion Solutions) has selected the ILIOS consortium* - led by Nuvia, a VINCI Construction subsidiary specialising in nuclear projects and services - to design and build the infrastructure for the STEP Fusion programme** in Nottinghamshire, United Kingdom.

UK Fusion Energy is a government-funded industrial partnership designed to develop, by 2040, a prototype power plant capable of generating electricity from fusion energy.

The 4.5-year, £200-million contract (approximately €230 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 VINCI Construction's recognised expertise in large-scale complex infrastructure projects, particularly fusion. It is worth recalling that VINCI Construction companies are currently involved in the ITER (International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor) project - one of the world's most ambitious international fusion research programmes - under construction in Cadarache, France.

*The ILIOS consortium is composed of Nuvia, Kier, AECOM, AL_A and Turner & Townsend
** Spherical Tokamak for Energy Production
