| Description: | The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project is being developed by Xlinks First as the principal developer. The Xlinks Morocco-UK Power Project is a multi-technology renewable energy project of circa 11 GW generated in Morocco with a combination of solar, wind and in-land power transmission, coupled with energy storage. The electricity produced by the Moroccan generation facilities will be transported exclusively to Great Britain through dedicated 4,000 km HVDC onshore and offshore transmission infrastructure delivering 3.6GW, which will serve up to 8% of Great Britain electricity needs. The HVDC system is comprised of two separate bi-poles, providing two separate connections in the UK. The Project comprises four key elements: 1-Generation: covering all the generation assets (wind, solar, BESS) with their related civil and electrical works up to the HVDC converters in Morocco. 2-HVDC Converter Stations: in Morocco and the UK. 3-HVDC Onshore Transmission: covering onshore transmission in Morocco (underground cables and overhead line) and in the UK (underground cable). 4-HVDC Offshore Transmission: submarine HVDC cable between the Moroccan and UK landing points. This Delta Tenderbox relates to the HVDC onshore and offshore transmission. Potential suppliers for HVDC cable, HVDC overhead lines and related works are being invited to respond to a Request for Information, including an expression of interest for some or all of the Scope of Works for the transmission infrastructure. Once Xlinks First has received responses from participants, Xlinks First may initiate further discussions with potential suppliers before finalising its procurement strategy. Once the procurement strategy is confirmed, Xlinks First will proceed to launch the procurement events. |
