Jacobs Solutions Inc. has been selected to extend its program management office, construction management and assembly management duties for thyssenkrupp Steel’s hydrogen-capable direct-reduction plant in Duisburg, Germany, as the facility moves toward first iron production. Originally awarded in August 2023, Jacobs will continue to coordinate design, logistics and construction for a plant expected to yield about 2.5 million metric tons of direct-reduced iron annually by replacing coal-fired blast furnaces with a hydrogen-based process. EVP Fiachra Ó Cléirigh says the extension reflects trust in Jacobs to deliver this complex, first-of-its-kind project and support climate-neutral steelmaking. On site, Jacobs supervises civil works, logistics, QA and works with thyssenkrupp to sustain health, safety and environmental performance, while managing assembly logistics and material flow among contractors. The project aligns with Jacobs’ broader energy and infrastructure work in Germany, including a seven-year framework with TransnetBW for SuedLink. Jacobs employs more than 300 people across three German offices. Extends leadership on a hydrogen-based steel project, signaling ramp-up in decarbonization work and potential future opportunities.

Jacobs Solutions Inc. has secured a contract with Germany's Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung mbH to provide advisory and project-support services for the Konrad Repository in Salzgitter, transforming an existing mine into Germany's first final repository for low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste under nuclear law. Jacobs will assess construction progress, validate planning assumptions, update schedules and cost plans, and implement efficiency improvements while navigating complex regulatory, seismic, and mining requirements. The engagement leverages Jacobs' European radioactive-waste experience (e.g., Sellafield, Belgium) and its Germany footprint (including SuedLink) to support efficient, predictable delivery. The award expands Jacobs' presence in Europe and complements a diversified backlog and project pipeline across data centers, semiconductors, energy and power, transportation, water, and advanced manufacturing, with balance-sheet discipline mitigating related risks. Adds to backlog and strengthens European nuclear infrastructure exposure, moderately lifting near-term prospects.

Jacobs Solutions has been reappointed to National Grid's Asset Health Intervention Programme, expanding its role to cover the U.K.'s Central, Southeast and Southwest transmission regions for a five-year, over $13 million contract. The programme targets more than 800 live transmission assets, replacing and refurbishing aging substation components, including circuit breakers, disconnectors, surge arresters, instrument transformers and through-wall bushings, using standardized, programmatic designs to boost efficiency, reduce costs and strengthen network resilience amid rising demand and the move toward net-zero. A U.K.-based Jacobs team will lead detailed design, design assurance and construction support, working with National Grid's Asset Operations to minimize disruption on live assets. National Grid says the programme aims to maximize asset performance across its lifecycle; Jacobs highlights its global delivery capabilities tied to local execution. The arrangement builds on a long-standing partnership amid the U.K.'s renewable expansion and ongoing large-scale transmission investment. Expands Jacobs' footprint in UK transmission modernization across three regions for five years, signaling potential incremental revenue and stronger client relationship.

Jacobs was awarded a contract by Germany's Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung (BGE) to provide advisory services for the Konrad Repository project in Salzgitter, Germany. The engagement aims to strengthen schedule accuracy, cost reliability and overall project delivery for Germany's first final repository for low- and intermediate-level radioactive waste. Jacobs will assess construction progress, validate planning assumptions, update schedules and cost plans, and implement efficiency improvements. The project involves working within existing structures, seismic considerations and compliance with mining and nuclear regulations. Jacobs will align construction activities, timelines and cost structures with on-site realities and apply best practices from comparable large-scale infrastructure programs. The award adds to Jacobs' experience in nuclear decommissioning and waste management across Europe, including Sellafield in the U.K. Expands Jacobs' exposure in European nuclear-waste projects and could lift future project opportunities and backlog.
