Nexans wins key contract for electrification of Gotland

Nexans has been awarded a major contract by Svenska Kraftnät to connect the island of Gotland to mainland Sweden. The project involves the supply of 320 km of high-voltage submarine and land cables. The infrastructure is designed to meet growing demand for electricity, fuelled by the island’s industrial development and renewable energy.

Gotland's current network is insufficient in the face of recent socio-economic developments. The installation of the cables, planned by mid-2030, will respond to the transition to a carbon-neutral industry. Nexans, with its expertise, is committed to ensuring high reliability and performance of its cable systems.

Pascal Radue, a Nexans executive, highlights the importance of this partnership with Svenska Kraftnät to support the energy transition. This project strengthens Nexans' position as a leader in the electrical infrastructure sector.
