Prysmian Group subsidiary NSW has won a contract to supply array cables for Parkwind’s 224MW Northwester 2 offshore wind farm off the coast of Belgium.
NSW will design, produce and deliver 25km of 33kV submarine cables for the project, as well as carry out pre–operation termination and testing.
The wires are scheduled for delivery in summer 2019.
Northwester 2 will feature 23 MHI Vestas 164-9.5MW turbines and is slated for completion in 2020.
Prysmian Group executive vice president Hakan Ozmen said: “This is a clear indication of how NSW’s experience and know–how in submarine and offshore cable systems can further strengthen Prysmian Group leadership in the offshore wind market, leveraging also on a wider portfolio of products, technologies and assets.”
