Cable Supplier Selected

Following a series of serious cable faults on the Moyle Interconnector, Moyle Interconnector Limited developed a long‑term solution to lay new low‑voltage submarine cables along a similar route to augment the existing cables and replace the existing return conductors. For this replacement project, Nexans, the original equipment manufacturer, was selected to manufacture and install the new low‑voltage submarine cables, with Nexans planning to restore full capacity on Moyle by 2016, thereby reinstating long‑term reliability and an additional 250 MW of capacity.
