Esbjerg Harbour recently saw a need to boost its power capacity in connection with an extension and renovation. This meant building a secondary substation on the harbour pier.
The task was to develop a substation that would not be affected by high tides and flooding. The client – Syd Energi – cast the base foundation themselves while Priess A/S supplied a secondary substation that would fit onto their concrete foundation. The foundation was then subsequently polished up so that it was not possible to see the transition between the base foundation and the foundation of the substation.
