Prysmian is one of the founders of Norstec, an association of
the world’s leading players in the energy industry with the aim
of supporting the production of renewable energy by offshore
wind farms in the Northern Seas.
Norstec, supported by British Prime Minister David Cameron,
brings together more than 40 entities operating in the
energy transmission infrastructure and technology industry,
including world-leading manufacturers (such as Alstom,
Areva, E.On, National Grid, Siemens, Vattenfall and Vestas),
developers, researchers and industry bodies, and aims to
promote policies geared towards the growth of the offshore
wind power industry in the Northern Seas by exploiting the
available resources and transforming them into economic and
development opportunities. The members of the association
will collaborate and share information to ensure that the
benefits offered by the vast clean energy potential in the
Northern Seas are fully realised.
By joining Norstec, the Group, which is already a global
leader in power connections for offshore wind farms,
strengthens its commitment to supporting more efficient and
environmentally sustainable grids throughout the world, as
well as its leadership in implementing power transmission and
distribution connections.
