Hellenic Cables announced it has been awarded an EPCI contract for the grid interconnection of the Western Offshore Substation of Gennaker Offshore Wind Farm in the Baltic Sea, off Germany.

A press release said that Hellenic Cables, the cables segment of Cenergy Holdings, won the contract—worth approximately €400 million—from 50Hertz Offshore GmbH. It calls for the turnkey delivery of two export cable systems for the interconnection to the German grid of the Western Offshore Sub Station of Gennaker, an offshore wind farm with capacity of approximately 927 MW located in the German Baltic Sea.

Hellenic Cables will design, provide, install and commission the two export cable systems that will connect a new onshore substation. The site is located close to Gnewitz in Northern Germany, to the Western Offshore Sub Station of the wind farm. The order calls for 80 km of 220 kV submarine and 210 km of 220 kV underground cables as well as related accessories. They are expected to be installed and delivered in 2027.

The submarine cables will be manufactured at Hellenic Cables’ manufacturing plant in Corinth, Greece, and the underground cables will be manufactured at the company’s plant in Thiva, Greece.
