LONDON, U.K.  Petrofac and Hitachi Energy have entered into a collaboration to provide joint grid integration and associated infrastructure to support the growing offshore wind market, according to a recent Petrofac news release.

The collaboration builds on the complementary core technologies and expertise of both companies in offshore wind to support the decarbonization of power systems and deliver clean energy. It covers high-voltage direct current (HVDC) as well as high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) solutions.

Petrofac offers engineering, procurement, construction and installation capabilities for offshore platforms and offshore and onshore civil works, and Hitachi Energy provides HVDC Light and modular HVAC grid technologies. Together, the companies aim to bring considerable benefits to the efficient implementation of offshore wind projects and help accelerate the energy transition.

Petrofac has been deploying its expertise in support of renewable energy projects since 2008, and it has delivered projects for both HVDC and HVAC offshore and onshore substations for major offshore wind farms across several of Europe’s developments.

Petrofac recently announced contract awards and partnerships to support carbon capture and storage, hydrogen, and waste to value projects internationally.
