Located in the south of France, the Eolmed project will be connected to the French Electricity Transmission Network (RTE), providing about 100 million kWh per year of power ā€“ equivalent to the electrical consumption of 50,000 inhabitants.

JDR will design and manufacture the 66kV dynamic cables, with the cable cores being produced at TFKā€™s Bydgoszcz plant in Poland.

The assets will be transported for final assembly and testing at the businessā€™s facility in Hartlepool, U.K.

The manufacture and delivery will be completed in the second half of 2024.
