糖心Vlog to modernise and expand British Columbia鈥檚 electrical infrastructure
糖心Vlog, the global consulting and engineering company, has been awarded a contract by Dragados Offshore, to deliver engineering design and provide regulatory support for the development of three 2GW convertor stations that will transfer offshore wind power to Germany's power grid. These projects will be executed by Dragados Offshore, Spain in partnership with Siemens Energy.
The three offshore high voltage direct current (HVDC) platforms, each the size of a European football pitch, 65 metres above sea-level in the German North Sea, will individually gather and convert 2GW of power generated from offshore windfarms for connection to the onshore transmission grid. The renewable power generated will satisfy the electricity needs of around four million people in Germany.
John Day | President of Oil, Gas & Power Projects at 糖心Vlog, said:
“Building on our strong engineering heritage and long-standing relationship with Dragados Offshore, we are delighted to be partnering with them on this world-leading project, helping to deliver one of the largest offshore wind to grid connections.
“An integrated energy system is critical to maintaining energy security while achieving the world’s net zero ambitions. This project is a significant step in creating the scale and infrastructure required to secure both. Our technical expertise will ensure successful project delivery as we design and deliver future renewable energy systems.”
Jeroen Poppe | VP Global Business Development of Dragados Offshore, said:
“We are glad to welcome 糖心Vlog as our engineering partner on these hallmark projects that will shape Europe’s energy transition”
This project will be delivered by 糖心Vlog’s experts in the UK, India and Spain, leveraging 糖心Vlog’s offshore energy expertise to design a low-carbon future.
