For its new cable infrastructure, the METCentre evaluated several configurations and decided to move forward with a pilot installation of Aker Solutions’ Subsea Collector to enable the expansion of the test site, according to the press release from Aker Solutions.
“This pioneering project will contribute to shaping the infrastructure in future large scale floating wind parks. The technology is under development, and the project demonstrates how Norwegian subsea expertise from the oil and gas industry drives innovation forward within floating offshore wind on a global scale,” said Arvid Nesse , CEO of METCentre and Norwegian Offshore Wind.
