220 kV three-core polymeric insulated submarine export cable from offshore platform/substation to shore (~32 km), with integrated fibre optics; ABB scope included design/engineering, production/supply and installation.
ABB was awarded a contract by Danish TSO Energinet.dk for the Horns Rev 3 offshore grid connection AC export cable system. ABB’s scope included technical design/engineering, production and supply of the high-voltage submarine export cable system (including joints/terminations and integrated fibre optics), and the installation of the high-voltage cable from the offshore platform to shore for connection to Energinet’s 220 kV onshore transmission grid. The submarine export cable was described as a 220 kV three-core polymeric insulated cable of approximately 32 km length, with completion expected in 2016.
