“Confirmation of our collaboration with Hitachi ABB Power Grids on all three phases of Dogger Bank Wind Farm is another important milestone for our world-leading devel-opment,” said Steve Wilson, Project Director at Dogger Bank Wind Farm. “Being selected once again underlines our customers’ trust in our world-leading expertise and delivery capabilities.” “HVDC technology contributes significantly towards a carbon-neutral energy future by enabling the integration of large-scale and remote renewable energy generation,” he added. “Together, with customers and partners, we are playing a key role in accelerating the energy transition,” said Niklas Persson, Managing Director of Hitachi ABB Power Grids’ Grid Integration business. According to an independent life cycle as-sessment, the implementation of this pioneering technology will reduce the lifetime CO2 impact by almost two-thirds, compared to previously commissioned installations, supporting the green energy transition and the strong global focus on carbon-neutral energy systems. Now, the latest HVDC Light system provides the most compact design and the lowest energy losses in the power industry.
