In 2006, the utility company Nuon realised a new 38 km long 20 kV submarine cable connection between Harlingen on the Dutch mainland and the island of Vlieland, laid on the Wadden Sea seabed by Visser & Smit Hanab, thereby connecting Vlieland to the Dutch national power grid and placing the cable into full operational service as the island’s grid supply link.
