CGEE ALSTHOM was the main contractor for the Lucciana HVDC converter station in Corsica, which became the third terminal of the SACOI multi‑terminal link and forms part of the SACOI 2 configuration. Commissioned in October 1985, the 50 MW station uses thyristor valves and a 12‑pulse converter arrangement. CGEE ALSTHOM handled the engineering design, manufacture and supply of the converter valves, transformers and associated AC and DC equipment, and led the installation and commissioning of the Lucciana converter station, working with Alsthom Atlantique as a subcontractor.
