Siemens' consortium partner Prysmian has supplied and laid in a bundle the two cables, each with a length of 130 km, for transmission of 250 kilovolt D voltage in the future.

58 Platforms with unmatched dimensions: HelWin1 from Shipyard to Offshore After the HVD platform HelWin1 reached its setup zone a further four days were required for installation. HelWin1 is a floating jack-up platform that is moved to the desired position by tugboats with its supports raised. When it reaches this position, the supports are lowered and connected to the supporting structure that has already been installed. The platform is then raised using a hydraulic jacking system Three tugboats are needed to tow the converter platform, weighing 12,000 tons, to its location off the coast of Helgoland. Since this steel giant is too large for passage through the North Sea/Baltic Sea (Kiel) canal, it had to be towed around the northern tip of Denmark. After seven days at sea, covering 990 kilometers, HelWin1 finally reached its installation destination Source: Siemens E T TS 2/Re
