Hellenic Cables has secured a contract to supply high voltage submarine cables to the Croatian transmission system operator for a cable replacement project in the Adriatic Sea.
Under a contract signed with Končar Group, Hellenic Cables will supply 12 kilometers of 110 kV submarine cables, accessories and related services as part of a project by the Croatian TSO for the replacement of existing outdated cable lines.
