Battersea Power Station has announced that Sisk has been awarded the contract to construct the next phase of the ambitious 42-acre regeneration project.
Sisk will be responsible for constructing two new buildings, designed by Gehry Partners, which will complete the neighbourhood’s new pedestrianised high street, Electric Boulevard, with works set to commence in summer 2026.
Forming Phase 3C of the 42-acre masterplan, the two buildings will comprise around 300 new homes, 65,000 sq ft of new commercial space for shops, cafes and restaurants, a 15,000 sq ft Community Hub, and an expanded bike hub for 600 spaces.
The construction of Phase 3C is expected to create 400 jobs, with an aim for 20% of the workforce to be from the local area; a target which has been exceeded across the 7,500 jobs which have already been created at Battersea Power Station.
James Saunders, CEO at Battersea Power Station Development Company (BPSDC), said: “Today’s announcement is an important milestone in realising the vision for this ambitious 42-acre regeneration site.
“Phase 3C will complete Electric Boulevard, a critical part of the estate which continues to grow from strength to strength with new brand openings, office tenants and a new entrance to our Zone 1 Underground Station which opened last year.
“We look forward to working with Sisk to add two further Gehry Partners’ designed buildings to the inspiring, world-class architecture that defines Electric Boulevard and frames the iconic Grade II* listed Power Station.”
Steven McGee, chief operating officer, Ireland and UK, Sisk, added: “Battersea Power Station is one of London’s most iconic regeneration projects and we are proud to have been appointed as main contractor for this next phase of development. This is a significant appointment for Sisk and reflects our growing capability in the UK residential sector.
“Together with our ongoing work at Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital, Bermondsey and recently completed Silvertown and Wembley Park projects, it further strengthens our footprint in London and demonstrates the confidence clients are placing in Sisk to deliver complex projects at scale.”
