Belgian shipowner and marine services contractor DEME has selected Hellenic Cables, the cables segment of Cenergy Holdings, to supply inter-array cables for the Eoliennes en mer Dieppe Le Tréport (EMDT) offshore wind farm in France.
The project, located off the coast in the English Channel and expected to be commissioned in 2026, is being developed by a joint venture between Ocean Winds, Sumitomo Corporation and la Banque des Territoires.
The Greece-based cable maker has been entrusted with the responsibility of designing, manufacturing, and supplying the 120 km 66kV cables and associated accessories that will interconnect the wind turbines and connect them to the offshore substation. The cables will be manufactured in Corinth, Greece with delivery expected to take place in the second semester of 2025.
With a total installed power of 496MW, the offshore wind farm is located 15 km off the city of Le Tréport and 17 km off the city of Dieppe. Its 62 wind turbines will supply electricity every year to 850,000 people.
