[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\"\"Nexans has been awarded a frame agreement by TenneT, the Transmission System Operator (TSO) for the Netherlands and a significant part of Germany,\u00a0for turnkey high voltage direct current projects for offshore wind farms.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under this frame,\u00a0Nexans will be responsible for three grid projects, connecting the future offshore wind farms BalWin 3, LanWin 4, LanWin 2<\/strong>, in the German North Sea to main land. The\u00a0initial value is 1.7bn EUR<\/strong>, with major subcontracted works to be added once the project-specific call-offs are signed.<\/p>\n

Nexans will be responsible for the full Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Installation \u2013 including civil works (EPCI) of over 2,160 km of subsea and land cables.<\/p>\n

In 2022, Nexans made a major step forward with the successful development and testing of the first 525 kV DC cable with key features to enable a substantial increase in transmission capacity. The awarded projects are the first in which the\u00a0Nexans group is deploying its breakthrough 525 kV offshore cable technology<\/strong>,\u00a0specifically designed to support the energy transition<\/strong>, that will\u00a0provide a total of 6 GW of energy from the North Sea to Germany\u00a0The subsea cables will be manufactured at Nexans\u2019 flagship factory in Halden, Norway.<\/p>\n

After the successful completion of the DolWin 6 project and the award of the BorWin 6 project in 2022, the frame agreement continues Nexans\u2019 long-term partnership with TenneT,\u00a0contributing to the acceleration of Germany\u2019s energy transition<\/strong>. It confirms that Nexans is a reliable partner to support the energy transition and reduce net GHG emissions to meet the carbon neutrality targets set at COP21. These projects will\u00a0further increase energy security in Europe; they will be operational between 2029 and 2031<\/p>\n

” The uncertainty on the energy supply has again underlined the need to invest in offshore grids throughout Europe. This can only happen by creating strong and long term partnerships between suppliers and transmission system operators. The frame agreement developed by TenneT is the perfect answer to those challenges, and is consistent with Nexans\u2019 risk reward model. Nexans is proud to be involved in the ground-breaking developments and delighted to be trusted by TenneT. Our expertise in this field has allowed us to be at the forefront of the energy transition via offshore wind globally. ”<\/p>\n

Vincent Dessale, COO and Senior Executive Vice President of Nexans<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Nexans\u2019 commitment to sustainability, focus on electrification, development of innovative technologies dedicated to HVDC projects, and investments in new production capacity, vessels and subsea cable protection tools, position the Group as a major player of the energy transition.<\/p>\n

” After recent awarding of the first five cable connections and the announcement of the suppliers for the sea- and land-based converter stations, we are again very proud to announce the partners for the multi-year agreement to produce and install the cables for these crucial and innovative grid connection systems for the energy transition. ”<\/p>\n
