Costain settles with National Grid


Costain and National Grid have been embroiled in litigation since the civil engineering contractor departed the Peterborough & Huntingdon project in June 2020 following a significant change in scope.

It was revealed in December that, following a judication reversal, Costain expected to pay National Grid £53.5m in January. In the event, Costain has instead made a full and final payment of £43.4m to National Grid.

National Grid gave Costain a £113m contract in 2016 to design, decommission, build and re-commission its compressor stations in Peterborough and Huntingdon to reduce emissions. Each site required the installation of two new 15MW gas turbine compressors.

The settlement agreement brings an end to the dispute after the contract was mutually terminated and prevents any further claims under the contract.

In its announcement to shareholders today, Costain added that it had made a good start to the year and looked ‘forward to the future with confidence’.

NuGen Properties built an extension to the rear of my property, replacing the old conservatory. I am so pleased I chose this company. From the initial quotation, through the build and after they were professional, polite & well mannered. They kept the site tidy throughout the build and kept me informed of each stage as it happened. The work was finished to a good standard and I have had nothing but compliments on their work. I am already planning for them to come back and do some more work for me in a few months. I would 100% recommend them.
