Hellenic Cables awarded New Jersey wind farm deal - Splash247

Hellenic Cables, the cables segment of Cenergy Holdings, has signed a partnership agreement with Leading Light Wind, an offshore wind project located off the coast of New Jersey to supply some of the project’s inter-array cables.

The cable firm will supply 65 km of 132kV inter-array cables, a part of the project’s total inter-array cable needs. Leading Light Wind is developed by lead developer Invenergy and co-developer energyRe.

Leading Light Wind, the only American-led project in the New York Bight lease area, will be able to generate 2.4GW of energy, enough to power up to 1m homes annually while offsetting 4m tonnes of CO2 emissions each year once operational.

The delivery of the inter-array cables is planned for 2030, with the production of certain cable components starting immediately at Hellenic Cables’ in Corinth, Greece.

“Our contribution to the Leading Light Wind project underscores Hellenic Cables’ commitment to providing pioneering solutions that support the energy transition and enhance sustainability on a global scale,” said Alexis Alexiou, CEO at Cenergy Holdings.
