French transmission system operator RTE Réseau de Transport d’Electricité has commissioned Dorsalys to construct an onshore substation which is able to allow the Dieppe-Le Tréport offshore wind farm to be related to its grid.
The transformer station, situated on land three kilometres from the subsea cable touchdown level, is scheduled for supply in spring 2025.
The substation might be linked to the wind farm’s offshore station by a double 225 kV subsea hyperlink 23 kilometres lengthy, going underground for 3 kilometres from the Penly touchdown junction.
The unit is for use to rework the 225 kV electrical energy generated offshore into 400 kV present that may be fed straight into the nationwide grid.
“They first needed to fill within the current sinkholes earlier than they might start earthworks for the platform and the substation fence, in addition to digging deep foundations for all the web site,” mentioned Dorsalys, the Eiffage Énergie Systèmes model.
“Development of the buildings, drainage community set up and civil engineering work for the most important constructions are to observe. Lastly, they’ll set up {the electrical} tools and join the substation to excessive voltage, low voltage and optical fibre.“
