NKT now introduces a new cable storage solution for submarine power cables. NKT can store spare lengths of specific power cable connections at the high-voltage site in Karlskrona, Sweden.In addition, NKT offers the new service at its site in Eemshaven, Netherlands. NKT stores the spare cable parts in a customised basket ensuring long-term protection from environmental influences. BritNed, the company operating the interconnector between the UK and the Netherlands of the same name, is the first company to use the new storage solutions. In 2022, NKT produced spare lengths of the 450 kV HVDC interconnector and used the cable vessel NKT Victoria to transport the cable from the factory into the basket.
