NKT Cables, contracted by DONG Energy (now Ørsted), scheduled the start of installation of 170 kilometres of 220 kV high‑voltage AC submarine export cables for the Hornsea Project One transmission system in early 2018, following manufacture in Cologne in 2017. These export cables form the central circuit connection from the offshore wind farm to the mainland grid and interlink the offshore circuits, marking the planned commencement of physical cable laying for the Hornsea 1 OFTO export system.
