High voltage (HV) engineering company EDS HV Group (EDS), part of James Fisher and Sons plc, has completed its scope of HV consultancy work in the installation phase of the Horns Rev 3 offshore wind farm.

EDS provided pre-site engineering support, HV system reviews, consultancy support, and the provision and implementation of HV safety rules from the 33kV switchgear on the offshore substation (OSS) to the arrays and turbines, in order to ensure safety from the system during planned work.

Morten Jochimsen, Commissioning Manager at Vattenfall: “The whole Horns Rev 3 project team from Vattenfall would like to thank the EDS team in helping make this landmark project a success. EDS HV’s support and knowledge has been valuable for the project and has helped us bring the wind farm alive, without compromising on HV safety. Big thanks to the onsite personnel who have done a great job, being flexible and always with a smile on their face. I look forward to work with EDS again”.

EDS was also involved in training Vattenfall’s O&M team, with a number of its technicians passing panels to become Senior Authorised Persons (SAPs), enabling the team to run its own network.

David Orr, Operations Manager at EDS HV: “The whole EDS team has enjoyed working with Vattenfall on this landmark project. It has been a fantastic opportunity, and the successful completion of our scope has been a credit to our team on the project and all involved. We would like to thank Vattenfall for their continued support throughout the project and look forward to working with them in the future.”

Vattenfall’s Horns Rev 3 project is located 25-40 km off Denmark’s west coast in the North Sea and consists of 49 MHI Vestas V164-8.0 MW. It is expected to produce enough to power to meet the yearly consumption in 425,000 Danish households. The project is amongst one of the largest offshore wind farms in Scandinavia and was put into commercial operation back in August.
