Description
Twentsche Kabelfabriek (TKF) secured a contract from Van Oord to supply the inter-array cable system for CrossWind’s Hollandse Kust Noord (HKN) offshore wind farm in the Dutch North Sea, located around 18–18.5 kilometres off Egmond aan Zee. Under the agreement, TKF was responsible for manufacturing and delivering 66 kV aluminium-core inter-array cables that connect the wind turbines to each other and to the offshore substation within the wind farm. The contracted supply scope comprised 140 kilometres of 66 kV inter-array cables as well as associated accessories required for the array cable system. TKF highlighted that the cables would be produced in the Netherlands. The contract was placed by Van Oord in its capacity as Balance of Plant (BoP) contractor, supporting the construction delivery of the 759 MW project. The supplied inter-array cables formed the project’s internal MVAC collection network and were intended to be installed offshore during the construction phase leading up to the wind farm’s planned commissioning timeline. TKF’s scope in this engagement was limited to cable and accessory supply (manufacture and delivery), with installation and burial undertaken by the BoP contractor.
