Paris, September 10, 2021 – Nexans can confirm it has entered into exclusive negotiations with a leading developer to supply and install onshore and offshore export cables for a significant offshore windfarm in the UK. The multi-million-pound deal will allow the efficient transfer of energy from the windfarm to the grid when the project comes online in the mid-2020s.
