NCC, one of the leading construction and property development companies in the Nordic region, has entered into a collaboration with Boliden Mineral AB to reconstruct the electrolysis plant that was destroyed by fire at the Rönnskär smelter in Skelleftehamn, near Skellefteå.

Boliden is investing SEK 4.8 billion in a new electrolysis facility at Rönnskär. The new plant will match the specifications of the previous one and operate within existing environmental permits.

NCC and Boliden will now initiate the project engineering and planning phases to establish a target cost for the entire project scope.

In the coming spring, NCC and its subsidiary Hercules Grundläggning will also commence time-critical work components such as site preparation, foundation work, and piling.

– NCC has extensive experience with both complex infrastructure projects and industrial buildings, making this assignment an excellent fit for us. We have a good collaborative relationship with Boliden Mineral, and by involving NCC early in the process, we will be able to plan thoroughly for smart solutions. We are pleased to contribute to restoring this vital industrial facility, which is so important for Skellefteå and Sweden, said Hans Andersson, Head of NCC Infrastructure division.
