Trelleborg to supply cable protection systems for 1,386 MW Hornsea 2 Project offshore wind project
Trelleborg’s applied technologies operation has been awarded a contract by Ørsted to provide four integrated cable protection systems for Hornsea Two in the UK, the world’s largest offshore windfarm. Trelleborg’s NjordGuard cable protection system will be used to protect the inter-array power cables from fatigue, over-bending, and abrasion, at the entry point of the monopiles.
Design, testing, and manufacture of the NjordGuard cable protection system will take place in Trelleborg’s manufacturing facility in the North of England. Project engineering works will commence immediately, with installation activities scheduled for execution in 2021.
Hornsea Two comprises of 165 turbines will provide a combined total capacity of 1.4 GW. Located in the North Sea, 89 kilometers off the Yorkshire coast of the UK, Hornsea Two will provide green electricity to well over 1.3 million homes and is set for completion in 2022.
