Arcadis is supporting Dutch grid operator TenneT to develop and implement a standard design for future 2GW land converter stations. The new standard design will be implemented at three locations across the Netherlands.
The new stations will connect the IJmuiden Ver Wind Farm to be built in the North Sea with the high-voltage grid on land. These land converter stations meet the new 2GW standard that TenneT developed to accelerate the roll-out of offshore wind. One land station will be located at Borssele in the province of Zeeland and the two others on the Maasvlakte near Rotterdam. Arcadis will manage the detailed design, planning and tender process for the new buildings.
