nkt cables markets the world's most powerful underground DC cable system: 640kV
A new world-record 640 kV extruded DC (Direct Current) cable system has been successfully tested and qualified by NKT Cables. The commercialisation of the first 640 kV extruded DC underground system with advanced material technology will increase the maximum power transmission of cable systems by 20% and allow better integration of distant renewable energy sources into the global energy systems.
The build-up of integrated energy systems is strongly driven by the demand for increased renewable energy. The development of cutting-edge and more cost-efficient interconnector systems will enable transmission of power between distant power grids and from remote solar, hydro-power or wind installations over long distances with a minimum energy loss. A single pair of 640 kV DC... ... More: Official Press Release nkt cables
