By GlobalDataConstruction work on the new project is scheduled to commence in January next year, with completion expected in April 2023.
YIT Eesti Construction head Reimo Ehrstein said: “This year has proved that well-thought-out energy solutions are critical for sustainable operations.
“It is good to see that the private sector is clearly aware of its responsibility to the environment and is already able to ask for better solutions.
“All the energy left over from the building’s own consumption goes to the electricity grid, which is an exemplary example of how one building can make the living environment better for everyone.”
Recently, YIT and Sirius Capital Partners have entered a project management contract to renovate the properties at Korkeavuorenkatu 32-34 in the Helsinki Metropolitan Area of Finland.
