Contract Details
Description
ABB was contracted by Danish TSO Energinet.dk to deliver the high-voltage AC subsea export cable system forming the main offshore grid connection for Kriegers Flak and a key element of the Combined Grid Solution between Denmark and Germany. The scope covered design, manufacture and installation of three 220 kV three-core submarine cables with a total route length of about 100 km, running from the Kriegers Flak A and B offshore platforms to the landfall at Rødvig and between the two platforms. Using the project cable data (two parallel circuits over a 100 km route), this corresponds to approximately 200 km of submarine cable manufactured and installed. The contract, valued at over USD 100 million, supported the construction-phase grid connection scheduled for commissioning around 2018 and enables transmission of up to 600 MW from Kriegers Flak into the Danish grid as part of the hybrid interconnector arrangement.
