Jan De Nul Group, LS Cable & System, and Denys have received contracts for two 525 HVDC cable systems servicing the BalWin4 and LanWin1 grid connection systems. These are the first two contracts signed under the long-term framework agreement inked earlier this year by TenneT and Jan De Nul.
The assignments cover the design, fabrication, transportation, installation, protection, and testing of three 525 kV cable systems for linking offshore wind farms to the onshore grid via the BalWin4 and LanWin1 grid connections.

LS Cable & System will design, construct, terminate, and test all cables, while Denys will be responsible for civil and cable pulling scope relating to the onshore cable routes. For these two projects, more than 1,000 km of HVDC will be implemented, manufactured, transmitted, set up safeguarded, and inspected.
"We are delighted to sign these first two projects under the partnership framework agreement we signed with TenneT earlier this year." This is a significant step forward for TenneT's 2GWProgram and the development of the energy transition," stated Wouter Vermeersch, Manager of Offshore Cables at Jan De Nul Group.
The cable systems of the two grid connections BalWin4 and LanWin1 from the offshore converter stations will traverse the Wadden Sea and link to the extra-high voltage grid at Unterweser. Renewable power from offshore wind farms with a total transmission capacity of 4 GW will be routed into the German grid via the grid links.
