The schemes which are across a number of sectors, reflect SES’s growing stature both within the region, and further afield.
In the leisure sector, SES has been appointed to install building services on the new build Hampton by Hilton hotel in York, due to open in May 2012. Working alongside Miller Construction, the £10 million project will see the completion of a six storey 119- bed contemporary hotel in Toft Green, providing a major boost for the Micklegate area.
A second prestigious contract is being undertaken on behalf of Siemens at its site in Lincoln on a new build wind turbine testing plant on a design and build basis. The new facility will comprise three storey office accommodation and warehouse space. The completed facility will feature 134KM of photovoltaics and other sustainable features, to attain a BREEAM rating of Excellent.
SES is currently working on a similar project at Blyth, Northumberland, in the delivery of new facilities that will house test rigs for full scale wind and marine prototype devices on behalf of the National Renewable Energy Centre (Narec).
Speaking about these latest contract wins and the move towards targeting new sectors, SES’ regional director, Chris Catterick said:
“I am delighted to be able to announce these latest contract wins, which present us with a variety of challenges and provide an ideal opportunity to showcase our versatility across a number of sectors.
“I hope through our hard work and dedication to achieving excellent results, SES will also have the chance to continue working with our clients to fit out stage on future projects.
“Our experienced team, in house resourcing and competitiveness, are allowing us to actively target new areas and I am confident that we should be able to grow our business effectively in the leisure and renewable energy arenas in the future.”
