The new Koskela tram depot will respond to the demands of rapidly increasing volumes of tram traffic and sustainable urban mobility. The new depot will have 41,000 square metres of gross floor area. Among other things, the depot will have space to store approximately 50 trams, approximately 13 daily maintenance areas, 13 maintenance bays, a lathing track, and areas to store and service the maintenance vehicles.

Rejlers will bring strong expertise in technical building services and energy design to the project and is responsible for designing the HVAC, automation, energy, electrical and sprinkler systems.

“The Koskela tram depot is essential for sustainable public transport in the Helsinki metropolitan area, and the energy solutions we design will have a significant impact on the project’s carbon emissions,” says Topi Tissari, Director of Business Operations at division Buildings in Finland.

The tram depot project aims to be a pioneer in environmental responsibility, with ambitious environmental targets for carbon emissions, the circular economy, energy solutions and environmental certification.

“We are proud to be part of this important project, where we can contribute to improving the sustainability footprint of the Koskela depot, through both increased circularity and lowered carbon emissions”, says Malin Ljung Eiborn, Sustainability Director at Rejlers.
