Laje AS, part of ININ Power, has signed a contract with OX2 Construction AB for
the construction of a new 36 kV power line in Sweden. The contract is worth
approximately 60 MSEK and strengthens ININ Power's position in energy
infrastructure in the Swedish market.
Laje will carry out the project as a subcontractor for OX2. The power line is
being built for Malung-Sälen Elnät and will help strengthen and further develop
the regional grid capacity in the area.
The contract contributes to high activity and good predictability for ININ Power
in the fourth quarter of 2026 and the first and second quarters of 2027. At the
end of July 2026, ININ Power's total order backlog for the coming twelve months
had increased to 827 million NOK.
The energy division of Laje AS is an important contributor to the development
and is showing significant organic growth. ININ Power also sees a positive
development in project margins in the overall order portfolio. The development
supports the company's assessment of a growing market, driven by increasing
investments in power grids, electrification and new regional grid capacity.
"This contract is an important step in the further development of our business
in Sweden. It strengthens our position in power line and grid development and
contributes to a solid order backlog for the coming quarters. We are also
satisfied with the positive development in project margins, which reflects good
project selection, improved execution and a market with increasing demand," says
Anders Granshagen, CEO of Qben Infra AB.
