Domestic projects include substations at Sauðárkrókur, Hvolsvöllur, Búðarháls, and Fljótsdalur.

Furthermore, Verkís has designed a number of high-voltage cables, both underground and submarine cables, and our experts are at the forefront of Icelandic engineering firms in the design and planning of submarine cables. Projects in this field include, for example, the Hellisheiði geothermal plant and the Kárahnjúkar hydropower plant.

Verkís’ services include all disciplines and work components, from earthworks to final finishing and commissioning. The company also assists with operations and maintenance projects, modifications, expansions, and the like.

We are proud of the projects that have been entrusted to Verkís over the years and we put a lot of effort into always adding to our knowledge and skills in the field of electricity transmission.

Our experts provide services that cover all disciplines and tasks in electricity transmission, from earthworks to commissioning.
