Energy Infrastructure – Steel Framed Control Room

Steel-framed Modular Unit

Finland

Modular substation building delivered in Finland, integrating a control and metering room within a compact two-room configuration.

Project Completion

2026

  • Steel-framed modular unit with insulated double-skin construction
  • EI90-rated internal separation between control and metering rooms
  • Elevated structure enabling bottom cable entry via basement void
  • Integrated pressure relief system for fault conditions

The Challenge

  • Engineered for cold Nordic climates, supporting performance in sub-zero conditions and seasonal temperature variation
  • High-performance insulated envelope designed to achieve low U-values in line with project thermal requirements
  • Sealed construction reducing moisture ingress, condensation risk, and air leakage
  • Corrosion protection to EN ISO 12944 C4-H for exposed environments
  • Factory-controlled manufacture ensuring consistent quality and repeatability
  • Integrated cable management and HVAC systems to maintain stable internal conditions year-round

The Solution

A compact, fully offsite-manufactured solution delivering:

  • 9M x 4M x 4.2M Module weighing 15T transported from Ireland to Finland
  • Reduced on-site installation and programme risk
  • High-quality, repeatable build standard
  • Reliable operation in a harsh Nordic environment

A robust modular solution engineered in Ireland and tailored for Northern European conditions, combining thermal performance, durability, and programme certainty through an offsite-led approach.
