 Submarine Energy Systems   -3

Among the renewable energy sources presently being investigated and developed, wind energy seems the most promising. After the expansion of windmills on land, currently there is also a considerable increase in the number of windmills being installed off-shore, mostly in Northern Europe. Offshore wind-farms require submarine cables to connect the windmills among them and to ensure the connection with the power supply network. Another primary commitment of Prysmian in the field of energy submarine cables is the development, manufacture and installation of AC extruded insulation cable systems with...
