The Power Lines business area operates project sites throughout Sweden, with offices located in Stockholm and Alfta.
The Transmission and Regional Grid division covers the construction, modernization, and maintenance of power lines within Sweden’s national electricity infrastructure. Sweden’s transmission grid comprises approximately 15,000 kilometers of power lines that form the backbone of the national power system, supplying both the country and the regional grids. These networks largely consist of cost-efficient and highly reliable overhead lines. To meet future demand, continuous investments in both new construction and maintenance are required. Craftor constructs and upgrades power lines in the transmission and regional grids within a voltage range of 40 kV–400 kV. We manage the entire project in-house, from earthworks and foundation casting to tower erection and conductor stringing.
The Cable Contracting division delivers cable projects within the voltage range of 36–400 kV and specializes in complex projects with challenging installation conditions in both aquatic and terrestrial environments. Our expertise in excavation and installation of high-voltage cables enables us to operate in all types of settings, from kilometer-long cable routes in urban areas to rock drilling and tunneling. In addition to cable works, we also provide rock excavation, drilling, sheet piling, and water and sewer services, offering our customers a complete and coordinated delivery. With more than 40 years of combined experience, our specialists perform joints and terminations in high-voltage networks and handle everything from submarine cables to cables with plastic, paper, and low-viscosity oil insulation.
