Prysmian, an Italian cable manufacturer, has secured a €900m ($952.8m) contract to supply cables for Clean Path New York (Clean Path NY), a 3.8GW renewable energy project in the US.
Prysmian will design, manufacture, construct, install and commission the Clean Path NY project’s 400kV high-voltage direct current (HVDC) single-core cable system, conditional upon the project securing notice to proceed in spring 2024.
To be built with a total investment of $11bn, Clean Path NY is being developed by the New York Power Authority, energyRe and Invenergy.
The project will comprise 1.2GW of solar and 2GW of onshore wind, generating 7.5 million megawatt-hours of clean energy annually, and a new 175-mile (281km) underground and submarine transmission link.
The energy generated will meet the needs of 1.5 million homes in New York.
Prysmian Group projects business unit executive vice-president Hakan Ozmen stated: “We are proud to support Clean Path New York in meeting New York State’s ambitious climate goals to be 70% carbon-free by 2030. Clean Path New York is one of the largest transmission infrastructure projects to be executed in New York State and is one the first 400kV HVDC interconnectors to be built by Prysmian around the world.
