Amentum-Led Consortium Wins New Nuclear Build Contract in Netherlands Worth $207M
A consortium led by Amentum has won a new contract to provide program management and technical solutions for planning and development of nuclear new build in the Netherlands. The NEXUS-NL consortium, comprising Amentum, Arcadis, Tractebel, and NRG PALLAS, will work on the development of up to two new gigawatt-scale power plants to support the nation's strategies for decarbonization and energy security and will support the Nuclear Energy Organisation Netherlands, which will be established next month. Valued at a maximum of $207M, the two-year framework agreement, with options for three additional one-year extensions, was awarded by the Ministry of Climate Policy and Green Growth. In the initial phase, the consortium will oversee site characterization, technology selection, and planning work scope for site enabling, utility connections and transportation links.
