Energinet.dk, the Danish transmission system operator, has decided to postpone Anholt offshore wind farm cable repair .
The operation was scheduled for the late September. However, due to an error in NKT’s replacement cables, the work had to be pushed back. A new date will be announced promptly.
“The cable supplier is still preparing the replacement cable,” says Torben Glar Nielsen, technical director of Energinet.dk. “There was a failure with the replacement wire which has pushed back the process.”
Following a fault on a export cable in February, transmission operator in cooperation with NKT Cables identified there is a risk of error in the first 400 meters of the submarine cable from Grenå and the last 4 km before the substation.
