Proserv implementa sistema integral de monitoreo de cables para mejorar el parque eólico Dogger Bank C

Proserv has launched its comprehensive cable monitoring system called ‘ Electro Cable Guard ’ ( ECG ) on the third phase of the Dogger Bank C wind farm. This advanced cable monitoring system will reduce operational risks and improve the reliability of the subsea electrical infrastructure, enabling stable generation of clean energy for the UK.

The comprehensive cable monitoring system

Proserv’s ECG uses unique passive electrical sensors to monitor transmission cables and their terminations, detecting potential failures long before they become serious problems. This early identification capability allows proactive measures to be taken to prevent costly outages. In addition, the system operates synchronously, measuring electrical and mechanical stresses in real time to identify failure precursors.

Through its implementation at the Dogger Bank C wind farm , Proserv will help ensure the continuity of wind operations and avoid costly downtime. ECG technology has been successfully deployed at Dogger Bank Phase A and Phase B, as well as other major projects such as Hywind Scotland and Hywind Tampen.

We are very proud to secure this contract, positioning Proserv as the cable monitoring provider for DEME Offshore across all three phases of the Dogger Bank project ,” commented Paul Cook, Vice President, Renewables, Proserv. This system improves the reliability of offshore wind assets, and enables developers and operators alike to reduce repair costs by up to 80% when interventions are planned proactively.

Dogger Bank wind farm, located 130km off the Yorkshire coast, will have a total of 277 wind turbines once completed, supplying clean energy to six million UK homes each year. ECG technology will help maintain asset availability and ensure an efficient supply of renewable electricity.
