Hitachi Energy has won a major contract for the first-of-its-kind sub-sea power transmission network in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region advancing a sustainable energy future for Abu Dhabi. HVDC Light? will connect low-carbon power from the mainland grid to ADNOC's production operations as a strategic project to enable a sustainable, flexible and secure power supply. The system will connect ADNOC's offshore operations to the onshore power grid in the United Arab Emirates owned and operated by Abu Dhabi National Energy Company PJSC (TAQA). With a capacity of 3200 MW, the two HVDC links will be by far the most powerful power-from-shore solution in the MENA region to date. It is also the first HVDC power-from-shore solution outside Norwegian waters.
