Lister Drive Stability Balance of Plant
The Lister Drive Stability Plant project will provide inertia and reactive power to stabilise the National Electricity Transmission System (NETS).
This was another significant award for NRS within the Offshore Wind sector for the onshore substation civils package for the Seagreen Offshore Windfarm. This is a significant landmark for NRS as we consolidate our position as a key contractor within major projects within the renewables sector after successful delivery of the EA1 substation civils package.
NRS were to undertake all of the procurement, construction, installation, testing, commissioning and associated documentation of the Civil WORKS for the Onshore Substation.

St Andrews Cross 132/33 kV Substation is an indoor AIS substation which consists of two incoming 132 kV transformer feeders, Dalmarnock 1 and Dalmarnock 2 connected to two 132/33 kV 60 MVA transformers, Grid T1A and Grid T2A respectively.
The works at Glenlee form part of the Kendoon to Glenlee Reinforcement, which includes the extension of the 132kV network in south west Scotland.
NRS Group undertook the a number of packages within Fiddlers Ferry Substation. The works extended to Cable Civil Works, Enabling Works & GIS Building Construction.
Civil enabling and building works for the supply and construction of MVDC converter station buildings.
The design and construction of all civil & balance of plant works for a 2 Wind Turbine farm in County Cork, Ireland.
This was another significant award for NRS within the Offshore Wind sector for the onshore substation civils package for the Seagreen Offshore Windfarm
This project involved the design and construction of all civil and electrical works for a new 12 turbine wind farm. The turbines supplied were Gamesa G80 wind turbines with a tower height of 78m.
This project involved the construction of a new GIS building for the new East Anglia One offshore wind farm.
Part of the wider Penicuik Heritage Regeneration project, the aim of this project was to improve the appearance of the High Street and to make it safer and more comfortable for pedestrians.
NRS were contracted to demolish & existing wall within Falkirk Cemetery & Crematorium and construct a new memorial wall,
The Camlachie Burn site at Biggar Street included the proposed off-line replacement of some 185m of watercourse.
Demolition of the existing footbridge superstructure and abutments and the design and construction of a replacement steel truss deck together with new abutments and modification of the existing main piers.
The project aim was to dig a series of trial pits or trenches along Sauchiehall Street & Cambridge Street in Glasgow City Centre, to map out the services along these areas.
The Contract consisted of a combined Civils and Balance of Plant contract to install new foundations, structures, 400kV surge arresters, PTI’s and cable sealing ends in the Torness – Branxton 400kV circuits at Branxton 400kV substation.
The civil works were planned on a staged basis over a period of 4 years utilising available circuit outages subject to the Electricity Network constraints.
