On 27 December 2024, TenneT, the Dutch-German transmission system operator, selected Danish manufacturer NKT under its existing framework agreement to deliver the 525 kV XLPE HVDC on- and offshore power cable system for the LanWin7 offshore grid connection. LanWin7, which will have a route length of about 320 kilometres and is part of TenneT’s 2 GW programme, was awarded to NKT together with a partial section of the NordOstLink project, with the two awards having a combined value of approximately EUR 1 billion covering cable design, engineering, production, and on- and offshore installation; call-off of the specific project contracts is expected in 2026–27, with commissioning of the projects anticipated in 2033–34.
