TKF secures BALTIC EAGLE cable contract with Van Oord

Iberdrola's Baltic Eagle project is being developed 30 km northeast of the island of Ru?gen, located in the German waters of the Baltic Sea. The contracted scope for TKF in Baltic Eagle includes the manufacturing and delivery of Aluminium conductor inter-array cables and corresponding accessories. Van Oord will transport and install the foundations and ensure the supply, transport and installation of the inter-array cables. The offshore works for the Baltic Eagle project will commence in 2023.

"For our Baltic Eagle project, we are once again entering into cooperation with TKF. TKF is a reliable supplier of high quality cables with a tailor-made design which will meet all our client requirements. We look forward to the cooperation with TKF", said Henk-Jan van Dijk, Project Director Van Oord.

The project, which will cover an area of 40 km2, is expected to be completed in 2024. With a production capacity of 476 MW, the Baltic Eagle wind farm will deliver renewable energy to 475,000 households and at the same time saving nearly 1 million tons of CO? annually.

"We are very pleased that Van Oord is once again calling on our expertise, this time for the Baltic Eagle project in the German Baltic Sea. We are proud that we can make a contribution to the European target for CO? reduction with our unique Premium Dry cable design," said Walter Heerts, Business Line Director Building & Industry of TKF.
