Nexans – SupraMarine project: Superconducting power transmission for offshore wind farms

Nexans

SupraMarine consortium formed by leading European players to launch an innovation project connecting distant offshore wind farms to land using a superconducting system

 

  • Air Liquide, CentraleSupélec, ITP Interpipe, Nexans, and RTE have joined forces to develop a superconducting power transmission demonstrator designed to accelerate energy transition 
  • Called SupraMarine, the project is key to developing a subsea superconducting system, which will ultimately strengthen the competitiveness of offshore wind energy far from the coast
