For the Eolmed Floating Wind Farm, Prysmian installs export cables

Prysmian, an Italian cable manufacturer and installation services provider, has finished installing the export cable for the 30 MW Eolmed floating wind farm, which is being constructed offshore in southern France.

The scope of work completed by Prysmian included the design, supply, installation, termination, testing, and commissioning of a 23-kilometer, 66-kV static three-core export submarine cable with EPR insulation as well as a 66-kV dynamic submarine export tail that connected the onshore grid to the 30-MW floating wind farm that is currently under construction.

The company was given an EPCI contract by TSO RTE (Réseau de Transport d'Électricité) in 2021 for the export undersea power cable system.

"Prysmian demonstrates its leading position in the market and the validity of its know-how and technologies in the development of submarine cables and systems to support smarter and greener power grids worldwide with this project, which follows Provence Grand Large (PGL) floating offshore wind farm," stated Alberto Boffelli, COO Transmission at Prysmian.

Three Vestas V164-10.0 MW wind turbines erected on BW Ideol's Damping pool floating foundations will make up the EolMed floating wind farm, which will be situated 15 km off Gruissan in water that is approximately 60 metres deep.

In January 2024, Bourbon Subsea Services erected the floating electrical hub. Online sources state that Multimarine Services, a business located in Cyprus, was responsible for building the FEH.

The project was supposed to be put into service in the middle of 2024 and is being developed by Qair, TotalEnergies, and BW Ideol.
