egeplast Power Protect pipes protect new Bayernwerk high-voltage cable
The new high-voltage line, an underground cable around seven kilometres long, is protected by the egeplast Power Protect cable protection conduit system, which was installed in part using horizontal directional drilling and ploughing.
Professional management of a major project using the example of A-Nord – underground cable route currently in full operation
The professional management of major projects is becoming increasingly important given the large number of underground cable projects running simultaneously in the field of direct current.
BorWin4 & DolWin4 – South Section: Expansion of the Green Power Grid Progresses
In the southern Emsland region, the expansion of the green power grid enters a significant phase with the grid connection to BorWin4 & DolWin 4.
Amprion Goes Offshore: Expansion and Conversion of the Hanekenfähr Substation
As part of the energy transition, the energy landscape in southern Emsland is undergoing transformation. At the Hanekenfähr site, the Emsland nuclear power plant will be taken offline at the end of 2022. At the same time, increasing amounts of wind energy from the north must be effectively integrated into the grid.
Celtic Interconnector – Enhanced Energy Security Through New Interconnection Between Ireland and France
The Celtic Interconnector project is a technically demanding construction project aimed at connecting the power grids of Ireland and France via a 575 km high-voltage submarine cable. This ambitious infrastructure project is designed to facilitate cross-border power supply and contribute to European climate targets.
Environmentally compatible connection to the extra-high-voltage grid
Off the island of Baltrum, TenneT began connecting three offshore wind farms to the extra-high-voltage grid in summer 2024. The new 525 kV DC links of the 2 GW offshore grid connection projects BalWin3+4 and LanWin1 will strengthen the German power grid and increase the share of green electricity.
A-Nord: Main Artery of the Energy Transition
The A-Nord power line will bring wind energy from the North Sea to North Rhine-Westphalia, providing two gigawatts of transmission capacity from 2027.
HDD Expert Interview: Developments, Challenges, and Desirable Perspectives
The HDD method has gained increasing importance in recent years and will continue to move into focus in the future. Dr.-Ing. Thorsten Späth, Head of egeplast Product Management, spoke with Marc Schnau, Vice President of the DCA, about this environmentally friendly installation method.
BorWin5 Onshore – De Romein GmbH Contributes to the Energy Transition
Major project BorWin5 for safe and low-loss transmission of green offshore power progresses – De Romein GmbH constructs onshore route from Hilgenriedersiel to Garrel/Ost converter station using egeplast Power Protect conduit system.
Broadband expansion in Europe with customised egeplast solutions
Fibre-optic expansion is progressing very differently across Europe. While fibre-optic rollout in Northern Europe is almost complete, there is still significant demand in Central and Southern Europe.
Expansion of the European energy grid
Amprion and the Belgian transmission system operator Elia built the first direct power connection between Germany and Belgium.
Environmentally friendly grid connection of offshore wind farm clusters
For the grid connection of the offshore wind farm clusters "Westlich Adlergrund" and "Arkona See" in the Baltic Sea, grid operator 50Hertz used the ege-com® Macroduct High-T.
