Converters on Float-over-Barge Pioneered for Dutch National Grid

Jan 7, 2025 | News, Technology

This is an example of the innovative work undertaken by Heerema Marine Contractors for Tennet, the Dutch equivalent of National Grid.

This is the future. A technology revolution is occurring and Britain has yet to grasp the opportunity. These converters do not need to come onshore. They sit at sea close to the shoreline and convert the HVDC offshore before carrying the AC to a brownfield site.
