Project management company appointed on Steel River Power

Logic-i has been selected to oversee the expansion of one of the UK’s largest private wire networks at Teesworks, the former Redcar steelworks site.

The Yarm-headquartered project management consultancy will be responsible for managing the project’s contract administration, and taking a detailed oversight of contract performance, ensuring all agreements and adjustments are comprehensively documented and align with project goals.

It will also appoint a senior planning consultant to assist in the delivery of the Steel River Power masterplan.

The Steel River Power project is a joint venture between Steel River Energy and North West Electricity Networks, and represents a £100m investment that will expand the existing Teesworks’ private electricity distribution network and support the sustainable growth of industries on-site, providing a long term electrical utility infrastructure for the site.

The Steel River Power electrical network will further solidify the Teesworks site’s position as a leading green energy and industrial hub.

Stephen Humble, director at Logic-i, said: “While Logic-i delivers projects globally, securing this contract has special significance as it enables us to contribute to a project of immense importance to Teesside and the wider North East region.

“This opportunity underscores our expertise in project management and represents a key milestone in our growth strategy.”

Andy Laundon, operations director of Steel River Power, added: “Given the immense scale of our capital programme, it is imperative that safe delivery of the expansion project is the overarching priority.

“As such, we are delighted to have engaged Logic-i to oversee the contractual performance of the principal contractor and local sub-contractors.”
