The signing ceremony took place this morning at the presence of Orhan Yildirim, TEIAS General Manager, and Prysmian Group representatives Hakan Ozmen, EVP Projects, Cinzia Farisè, Regional CEO MEAT, and Ulku Ozcan, Prysmian Turkey CEO.

“This is another important step for Prysmian Group and now we are ready to start working on the Turkish Crossing project. We are very proud of the partnership with TEIAS and we will do our best to further strengthen our business relation with them,” stated Hakan Ozmen.

These two projects will complement the other interconnections developed by Prysmian for TEIAS in the past years (Dardanelles II and Dardanelles I), thus qualifying the Group as a leader in executing infrastructural projects aimed at contributing to the energy transition process in the Turkish area.

As announced, the completion of both contracts is expected by 2023.
