TFKable Group awarded contract for Moray East offshore wind farm

220kV High Voltage Cables
66kV High Voltage Cables

 

Production commenced at the Group’s specialist HV production plant in Bydgoszcz during Q1 2019. This large-scale undertaking will require highly coordinated programme of delivery to support VolkerInfra’s best in class installation sequence. All of the cable will be produced and tested on site in Bydgoszcz and delivered to the Scottish coast through an innovative drum rotation system which will see a total of 270 drums delivered throughout 2019. VolkerInfra will carry out the installation works connecting the wind farm to the National Grid at New Deer substation in Aberdeenshire.

 

ʺThe effects of our cooperation have already been appreciated, nevertheless I am pleased that the next demanding undertaking is ahead of us. We are especially confident in the ability of our own work results, i.e. the supply of high-quality cables at the Bydgoszcz production plant and our outstanding competence in engineering”, underlines Wojtek Skoczylas, Sales Director at TFKable Group.

 

Moray Offshore Wind Farm (East) Limited consortium is owned by EDPR (43.3%), Diamond Green Limited, which is partly owned by DGE (33.4%)
and ENGIE (23.3%). The project, scheduled to be completed in 2022, has received a 15-year Contract for Difference with a record low strike price of GBP 57.5/MWh. It will provide an abundant supply of low-carbon electricity and represents a step-change in the delivery of renewable power in terms of cost and scale because this wind farm will use the UK’s own indigenous renewable natural resource of wind. Moray East will be capable of providing power for the average annual requirements of in excess of 950,000 UK homes.
