How do we secure the quality of our roads when vehicles are becoming increasingly heavier? Introducing Raptor, this new cutting-edge technology is at the forefront of measuring road carrying capacity.

Ramboll has been awarded a framework contract by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) to provide the scientific basis for ECHA’s decision-making. For the next two years, Ramboll will be the first contact point for ECHA when they seek advice on various topics related to chemicals.

Power-to-X and power-to-gas are new energy technologies that will help us build a sustainable energy system. Power-to-X can turn wind and sun into green hydrogen, liquid fuels, and balance the energy systems.

60-70 per cent of a building's climate impact comes from the construction process and the rest from the use of a building throughout its lifetime. In a recently started project for the largest property owner in Sweden, Castellum, Ramboll will calculate and reduce the climate impact from construction of new buildings.

SSE Renewables commissioned the combined design team of Ramboll and GDG to deliver the concept design for the wind turbine substructures for Phase 2 of the Arklow Bank Wind Park (ABWP) Project. Ramboll’s depth and breadth of resources and unmatched global track record in offshore wind combined with GDG’s expert knowledge in the areas of geotechnical engineering and foundation design make a winning team. Furthermore, as an Irish owned consultancy, GDG brings local knowledge and detailed understanding of the ground conditions in the Irish Sea.

Infrastructure projects are essential, for example, to bring safe drinking water to populations that until now have been without, to bring cleaner and more reliable forms of energy to regions unable to produce their own, and to open up international gateways that bring a new socio-economic dynamic to evolving countries. But their risks and impacts must be managed, which is where health & safety management systems come in. 

Noting that there remains a need for continuous non-intermittent technologies within the power generation mix, current indications and projections are that to meet CO₂ ‘Net Zero’ emission targets, electricity sectors will be required to become ‘CO₂ neutral’ and power generation sectors will be required to become ‘CO₂ negative’. 

Global leading engineering company Ramboll has been contracted by China Steel Power Corporation to deliver the full jacket foundation design for the Zhong Neng offshore wind farm which will have a capacity of 300 MW. The project is another important milestone for Taiwan’s strategy to invest into renewable energy.

Katrine Orland Led has visited 47 countries, studied in Argentina and Canada and worked in Cambodia during the last six months. Meet the perfect example of a skilled water consultant with a global view.

Long-term regional planning requires coordination of stakeholder management and communication. In the Turku Region, Noora Mäki-Arvela, regional planner for the Regional Council of Southwest Finland, uses Ramboll’s BRUTUS simulation model for this. BRUTUS delivers easily communicative and detailed insights that strengthen collaboration between stakeholders in different organisational directions.

Ramboll is part of a team working on a state-of-the-art technology to make concrete more sustainable by using wastewater sludge as a key ingredient. Learn about the method and how the project is progressing in a webinar on October 2nd.

Ramboll will deliver a new design concept that adopts the 3D printing technology to construct wind turbine towers to GE Renewable Energy, one of the largest companies in the onshore wind market worldwide.
