Nexans announced the finalization of a second U.S.-based contract with Ørsted and Eversource to supply the export cable system for the Revolution Wind Farm. Located more than 15 miles south of the Rhode Island coast and 32 miles east of the Connecticut coast, the project will connect the wind farm to the onshore grid. The 704 MW Revolution Wind Farm will help both states achieve their ongoing commitments to develop offshore wind and address their energy needs, delivering electricity to more than 350,000 homes.

By eliminating potential future emissions, the historic project will replace close to one million metric tons of carbon pollution – the equivalent of taking more than 200,000 cars off the road annually. Revolution will be the 3rd project to be delivered from its continuously expanding Charleston, South Carolina facility confirming Nexans leadership in the US market. The agreement was signed in December 2019 to accelerate the energy transition in North America by bringing Nexans' industry-leading subsea cable technology to the U.S.
