Taihan wins 2 cable contracts from Qatar

Taihan has secured two extra-high voltage, full turn-key power grid projects in Qatar worth about 160 million dollars, covering design, manufacturing, installation, and testing of 400 kV and 220 kV networks for Kahramaa. The wins highlight Qatarโ€™s demanding technical standards and Taihanโ€™s growing Middle East presence.

Expanding Regional Leadership Through Taihan Qatar EHV Cable Projects

Taihan continues to expand in the region with major wins for the Taihan Qatar EHV cable projects valued at $160 million. These contracts build on the companyโ€™s long partnership with Kahramaa, Qatarโ€™s General Electricity & Water Corporation. They also reinforce Taihanโ€™s growing role in the Middle East power market.

Major Award for EHV Transmission Expansion

As part of the Taihan Qatar EHV cable projects, Kahramaa awarded Taihan a contract for a 400 kV and 220 kV transmission expansion worth $130 million. Taihan will design, manufacture, lay, joint, and test the cables. The project will enhance Qatarโ€™s highest-voltage transmission system.

Earlier, on August 21, Taihan signed an additional $31 million contract for another 220 kV EHV power network expansion. Both projects will be delivered on a complete turn-key basis, ensuring seamless execution from start to finish.

Supporting Qatarโ€™s Grid Modernization

Qatarโ€™s power grid expansion ranks among the most advanced and challenging projects in the region. It demands strict quality standards and advanced project management. Taihan has contributed to Kahramaaโ€™s grid development since 2008, consistently achieving strong results and positioning itself as a trusted partner in Qatarโ€™s energy transition.

Advancing Future Energy Solutions

A Taihan representative said these back-to-back contracts highlight the companyโ€™s competitiveness in the Middle Eastโ€™s power sector. The wins also align with Taihanโ€™s strategy to expand into high-voltage direct current (HVDC) and submarine cable systems, meeting the rising demand for energy infrastructure across the region.
