    Nexans has won Ocean Winds' submarine cable supply contract to design, manufacture, install and protect a 220kV submarine and onshore output cable system
    for the Moray West offshore wind farm project in Scotland.

    Nexans cabling solutions will connect wind farms to the national grid, power up to 650,000 Scottish homes and help Scotland meet its ongoing commitment
    to net-zero emissions by 2045.

    The Moray West project is an 860MW large offshore wind farm
    off Scotland's northeast coast.
    Nexans' tailor-made exit cabling solution will connect the project's substation to Blackhillock's national grid transmission system
    .
    The project is also an important step towards the UK's goal of providing the country with enough offshore wind energy and will support Scotland's contribution of 10GW of wind energy to meet the UK's target
    of 40GW by 2030.

    The cable system consists of Nexans' industry-leading high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) cables, which connect wind turbines to two offshore substation platforms (OSPs), including 170 km of land cables and 100 km of submarine cables
    .

    The cables will be produced at Nexans' plants in Halden and Rognan, Norway, Charleston, USA and Charleroi, Belgium, and will be installed
    by Nexans Skagerrak, a state-of-the-art cable laying vessel.
    The onshore portion of the project will be overseen and delivered
    by Nexans' experts in Edinburgh, Scotland.

    OceanWinds, an offshore wind joint venture between EDP Renewables and ENGIE, employs approximately 300 people
    .
    Ocean Winds owns a majority stake in the neighbouring Moray East offshore wind farm, which is currently nearing the end of its commissioning phase
    .
    Moray West has received full consent and is expected to commence construction in 2022 and is expected to be completed
    in 2024.
