Network operator EWE completed installation of a 23.5 km subsea power cable connecting the mainland to the island of Borkum in the German North Sea, with the laying works carried out between the end of June and mid-August 2013. The project created the longest subsea power link to the East Frisian Islands and demonstrated that cable installation in the North Sea can proceed smoothly compared with the delayed Riffgat grid connection.
