Mumbai: Crompton Greaves has said it is part of a consortium of four companies that has bagged a turnkey contract from Amrumbank West for its German wind farm project.
Amrumbank West GmbH (AWG) is a wholly owned subsidiary company of E.ON Climate & Renewables Central Europe.
The Amrumbank West Wind farm is 40 km offshore in the North Sea.
An offshore substation will transform the voltage to 155 kilovolt (kV) and transmit about 300 megawatt (MW) to the grid, operated by Tennet TSO (Transmission System Operator).
Crompton Greaves said the wind farm will have 80 multi-megawatt wind turbines.
It will design, engineer, supply and integrate all critical high voltage power equipment to connect the 33 kV and 155 kV networks, including power transformers, high voltage and medium voltage switchgear and automation equipment.
The installation of the offshore high voltage substation is scheduled for 2014, and will be made operational in 2015.
“Crompton Greaves plans to augment its foray in the rapidly growing segment of offshore wind with its competitive offering in renewable energy solutions and application,” said Mr Laurent Demortier, the company's Managing Director.
