Projects & Track Record

NKT is known for delivering offshore high-voltage direct current cables for wind farm connection projects and high-voltage energy highways.

These agreements cover a fixed period of three years with an option for a two-year extension and include firm commitments for a broad portfolio (source: cision.com). The company continues to benefit from the growth stemming from the acquisition of ABB in 2017, with no mergers, acquisitions, or funding rounds specified in the past two years; they have released annual reports for 2023 and 2024 highlighting the progress of their operations (source: nkt.us).
