prysmian was one of the founders of norstec, an association
that represents the leading global operators in the energy
sector, with a view to supporting the production of renewable
energy by offshore wind farms in the north Sea.
norstec, supported by david cameron, the british prime
Minister, brings together more than forty companies
specialised in power transmission technologies and
infrastructure, including many global players (such as
alstom, areva, e.on, national Grid, Siemens, Vattenfall and
Vestas), as well as developers, researchers and sector bodies.
the objective is to promote policies for the development
of offshore wind farms in the north Sea, drawing on
the available resources and transforming them into
economic and growth opportunities. association
members collaborate and share information in order
to ensure they obtain full benefit from the enormous
potential deriving from clean energy in that area.
by membership of norstec, the Group - already world
leader in linking offshore wind farms - strengthens
its commitment in support of more efficient and
eco-sustainable grids throughout the world, as well
as its leadership in the installation of links for power
transmission and distribution.
