General – Interconnector
Nexans has been awarded a significant contract by Interconnect Malta (ICM) to deliver the second Malta-Sicily interconnector.
This new high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) link will reinforce Malta’s electricity system, ensuring a stable and resilient energy supply. The cables for this project will be produced at Nexans’ facility in Charleston, USA.
The 225 MW interconnector will operate at 220 kV and consists of a subsea cable linking Maghtab, Malta, and Ragusa, Sicily. It will be installed in parallel with the existing interconnector, which Nexans previously delivered.
