Hellenic Cables secures contract for Leading Light Wind project in the US

Hellenic Cables, part of Cenergy Holdings, has won a contract to supply 65km of 132kV inter-array cables for the Leading Light Wind project, a 2.4GW offshore wind farm located over 40 miles off the New Jersey coast. 

Cable manufacturing will commence in autumn 2024 at the company’s Corinth facility in Greece, with delivery expected by 2030.

The Leading Light Wind project, a joint venture between Invenergy and energyRe, is the sole American-led initiative in the New York Bight lease area. 

The wind farm will generate enough green energy to power one million homes annually and offset four million tonnes of carbon emissions. Hellenic Cables’ involvement highlights its commitment to supporting the global energy transition.
