NKT has confirmed a turnkey export cable contract with EDPR for the latter’s 950MW Moray East wind farm off Scotland.
Both parties signed a final €150m binding agreement on the deal, which was previously at preferred bidder status.
The Danish manufacturer will deliver and install the export system for the 100-turbine project in the Moray Firth.
A total of 175km of AC export wires will feature, to be installed by NKT cable-lay vessel Victoria (pictured).
Installation will start in 2020, NKT said. The wind farm is due online in 2021.
