On 17 July 2017, TenneT awarded Siemens a contract to build and install the 900 MW DolWin6 offshore grid hub in the German North Sea, including the HVDC converter infrastructure that will connect the offshore wind farms to the onshore grid at Emden/Ost. Siemens will deploy its direct current compact switchgear technology, enabling a more compact 900 MW platform compared to previous designs.
