This news article details a partnership between Hyperion Robotics, a Finnish additive construction company, and the UK's National Grid to test 3D-printed concrete foundations for substations. The goal of this initiative, funded by the UK Government’s Office of Gas and Electricity Markets (Ofgem), is to significantly reduce concrete usage and carbon emissions in infrastructure projects. Hyperion Robotics will manufacture the foundations, which will then undergo testing at the University of Sheffield and National Grid’s Deeside Centre for Innovation.
