Wind Energy – Hornsea 3
Ørsted has hired JDR Cable Systems, Severfield and Smulders to produce integral components and deliver services for the Hornsea 3 offshore wind farm, under contracts collectively worth up to $127 million.
Severfield will work with its strategic key contractor Hutchinson Engineering in Widnes, site of the recent Great British Energy launch, and will undertake final assembly of key components at the Teesworks Port in Teesside.
Severfield and Smulders will supply a large proportion of secondary structures for Hornsea 3’s foundations from the UK.
JDR Cables won the Array Cable Testing and Termination contract. JDR will prepare and connect the cables between the turbines and offshore convertor stations and then using its testing system will ensure that all array cabling is fully integrated into the offshore electrical infrastructure and working safely.
