The period is four years, with four option years. The initial four-year period amounts to a contract value of approximately EUR 137.5 million and the total contract value, including the option years, amounts to EUR 275 million. The scope and estimated value of the agreement remain unchanged from the previously announced information. The agreement further strengthens Eltel's position as a leading provider of critical infrastructure in Sweden.

The assignment covers Vattenfall's Roslagen and Uppland areas, including Uppsala, Solna, Norrtälje, Östhammar, Öregrund, Tierp and the area extending north to Gävle.

The assignment is a natural next step in our strategic development and further strengthens our position in the power distribution market. We look forward to deepening our collaboration with Vattenfall Eldistribution," says Klas Elmberg, Managing Director of Eltel Sweden.
