French cabling specialist Nexans has secured a framework agreement with RTE for the design, manufacturing, and supply of HVDC cables that will connect the Centre Manche 1 & 2 and Oléron offshore wind farms to the French transmission network. The frame agreement includes the supply, installation, and commissioning of 450 km of high-voltage direct current (HVDC) subsea cables and 280 km of high-voltage direct current onshore cables to support the connection of the three offshore wind farms. The value of the agreement is above €1bn ($1.08bn), depending on the final quantities to be agreed upon and the subcontractors to be appointed during the next phase leading to the signature of each EPCI contract. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1_95_0_1_2'); }); TagsFrance Offshore Wind
