Shares of Tekmar (LON: TGP) have jumped at the open on Friday after the announcement that it has won a contract from Van Oord to supply its Generation 10 Cable Protection System (CPS) for the Baltic Eagle offshore wind farm in the Baltic Sea, Germany.
Baltic Eagle is Iberdrola’s second offshore wind project in Germany, and once complete, it will form part of the largest offshore wind complex in the Baltic Sea.
Tekmar will be involved in engineering, manufacturing, testing, and supplying its latest CPS technology to protect subsea inter-array and inter-platform cables as they transition between seabed, offshore turbines, and offshore substation.
