Areva T&D

Areva T&D provided and installed major high-voltage electrical equipment for the Gunfleet Sands offshore substation, which later transferred into the Gunfleet Sands OFTO transmission asset base. Working under DONG Energy’s multi-contract approach and together with ABB, Areva T&D delivered the offshore substation’s mechanical and electrical equipment package, including two 132/33 kV transformers and associated HV systems. The scope covered manufacture/supply and installation on the offshore platform during the construction phase, creating the step-up and switching functionality required to export power from the 33 kV arrays to the 132 kV export cable and onshore grid connection.
