TenneT and Seatrium have held a strike steel ceremony at Seatrium’s Tuas Boulevard Yard in Singapore. The ceremony marked the start of construction of platform IJmuiden Ver Beta, one of the first Dutch 2 GW grid connection projects. The high voltage direct current (HVDC) offshore converter platform will connect the IJmuiden Ver Beta offshore wind farm and will be installed in the Dutch North Sea in 2028. In 2023, TenneT selected the GE Vernova Seatrium consortium to supply the offshore HVDC platforms for the 2 GW Maasvlakte cluster. GE Vernova is responsible for the 2 GW HVDC system, and consortium partner Seatrium will engineer and manufacture the platform. Under the framework agreement, the GE Vernova Seatrium consortium has been awarded three Dutch projects (IJmuiden Ver Beta, IJmuiden Ver Gamma, and Nederwiek 2) that will be connected to the high voltage grid at Maasvlakte (Rotterdam). |
