The contract is expected to be worth around £300m to the JV, with optional contract extensions.
Costain said there’s a separate maintenance contract following the design and build phase which will operate for seven years and is valued at £32m.
Earlier this month, Costain was awarded a contract as a sole supplier to deliver tunnel and lineside mechanical and electrical systems for HS2.
Chief executive Alex Vaughan said: "This contract marks the start of a new partnership with Siemens Mobility and its team of experts who share our values and ambitions.
"Providing a safe, reliable power system will be critical to the success of HS2, with rail electrification a crucial part of the UK's decarbonisation plans."
