Qualification System - 2 GW HVDC Stations (Converter Systems & Platforms) - (previous NX 202008)
TenneT TSO has published a continuation of an existing Qualification System (QS) for HVDC converter stations and offshore platforms. The QS concerns two categories: A (HVDC converter systems, including maintenance and optional civil works for onshore stations) and B (offshore platforms, including design, production, transport, installation, commissioning and optional maintenance of auxiliary systems). For every offshore grid-connection tender, the full scope of both categories will be included, meaning there is no separation between platform and converter. For purely onshore-onshore connections, the platform scope is excluded. The QS was concluded with Tender 2[telefoonnummer verwijderd]) and there is no new tender planned. The procurement is intended for certified suppliers with experience in HVDC installations and offshore platform constructions.
