JDR Cable Systems has opened its new cable manufacturing facility in Cambois, near Blyth, UK, which the company says expands its capacity to supply inter-array, interconnector and export cable systems for offshore wind projects.

The new plant is aimed at supporting growing demand for offshore wind infrastructure in the UK and internationally. According to the company, the facility will also support research and development designed to increase cable delivery lengths of advanced AC cable solutions with larger cable cross-sections and higher voltage classes to Um=300kV.
