In 2002, Statoil (now Equinor) awarded Hitachi Energy (then ABB) a contract to deliver the world’s first power‑from‑shore HVDC Light transmission system to the Troll A platform, referred to as Troll A 1&2. The award covered the onshore rectifier at Kollsnes and the offshore inverter equipment on Troll A, enabling ±60 kV HVDC Light power transmission over roughly 70 km of submarine cable from the Norwegian grid to the offshore gas platform.
