The Hengtong Group reports that one of its business units (Hengtong) has won the contract to supply 66 kV submarine cables project for the Landsnet project in Iceland.

Per its posting at LinkedIn, Hengtong will provide comprehensive services for the project, including design, supply, installation and testing of the three (3) submarine cable circuits. Scheduled for completion next summer, the new lines will greatly improve the safety of power transmission in that area.
