Poyry expands in Sweden and hydropower

Finish consulting engineering practice Poyry has expanded its activities in Sweden and in hydropower, amongst other sectors, with completion of the purchases of parts of the engineering consulting business of Vattenfall Power Consultants.

As a result a new company, SwedPower, has been formed to include Poyry’s new business. SwedPower activities, including 245 transferred jobs, are now being included in Poyry’s reporting. The business involved generated pro forma net sales of SEK 480M (USD 74.8M) in 2010. SwedPower activities, ranging from advisory services to engineering and project management, are focussed in three sections on hydropower, wind power and power networks including thermal power.


The purchases were originally announced in April, and are seen as opening major opportunities for common projects in the energy sector globally.

In its latest financial figures (interim report of 27 July) Poyry has reported a 30.3–per cent increase in order stock to EUR 742.1M (USD 1067.6M) over the same periods last year, and a 12.2-per cent increase in net sales for the first six months. However, the report’s outlook for 2011 indicated uncertainty on the investment decisions of clients. “During the summer the uncertainty around the general economic outlook has increased, which may also impact investment activity in business segments that are relevant to Poyry’s operations,” it says. Sales and profit are expected to increase during 2011 due to the current strong order book.
