The company, which is increasingly shifting focus from construction to its specialist engineering business, said it had extended its multi-disciplined site-wide contract at Sellafield to March 2010, with the potential for another year's extension.
This deal included supporting production operations, general infrastructure and decommissioning. It is one of four frameworks its subsidiary Shepley Engineers holds at Sellafield.
In recent years, Renew has completed a number of contracts in Yorkshire including a coastal protection contract at Whitby Marina.
