Vattenfall has signed an inter-array cable agreement with Hellenic Cables for Norfolk Offshore Wind Zone.
Around 850 km aluminium cables will be provided by Hellenic to connect the wind turbines to the offshore substation for the 4200MW project.
Catrin Jung, Head of Offshore Wind at Vattenfall, said: “We’re really pleased to be working with Hellenic Cables who will be providing the inter array cables for our Norfolk Offshore Wind Zone.
“This is another important milestone for the project and Vattenfall’s mission for fossil fuel-free living within a generation.”
Rob Anderson, Project Director of Vattenfall’s Norfolk Zone, said: “The Norfolk Offshore Wind Zone will provide around 4.6m UK homes with clean, low cost power, making it one of the largest in the world.
“I’m delighted that Hellenic Cables are on board, using their expertise to provide the inter array cables and bringing the whole project another step closer to delivery.”
