Rise and DRP will develop the site to be shovel-ready and collaborate to attract manufactures of two types of subsea cables required for offshore wind farms.įirst are inter-array cables that connect turbines within the offshore wind farm to an offshore substation, and the second are export cables that connect the offshore substation to the onshore grid. With a demand for 800 to 1,000 miles of cable per year in the US and growing, the addition of a new submarine cable manufacturing factory could position New Jersey as a critical link in the offshore wind supply chain to meet this growing demand.Ĭurrently, there is only one operational US offshore wind cable manufacturing facility out of South Carolina.Ī typical offshore wind cable manufacturing plant may produce approximately 120 miles of cable per year, depending on size. "Conveniently situated along the Delaware River, we are accessible and fully capable of meeting the offshore wind industry's needs." "The Repauno Port & Rail Terminal is an ideal location for this project. "We are excited about this partnership with Delaware River Partners."ĭRP chief executive Hank Alexander added: "We are proud to enter into a partnership with Rise Light & Power to develop New Jersey's first submarine cable manufacturing facility. "The Outerbridge Renewable Connector will revitalize and repurpose infrastructure to meet New Jersey's bold clean energy goals.
Rise Light & Power chief executive Clint Plummer said: "This opportunity will bolster New Jersey's leadership in offshore wind with a major investment to create good-paying jobs and become a national supply chain leader. Submarine cable manufacturing facilities of similar size typically generate approximately 500 jobs during construction and over 100 good-paying, full-time jobs during operations. Upon approval of the Outerbridge Renewable Connector project, pending before the BPU, Rise and DRP will commence development and permitting work to make the site shovel-ready and to attract an offshore cable manufacturer, who would ultimately construct and operate the facility. A wide range of modules can be used to expand the system centrally or to create decentralized structures according to the task at hand, and facilitates a cost-effective stock of spare parts.The proposed submarine cable manufacturing facility will have a footprint of approximately 30 acres, along with dock access. The SIMATIC S7– 300 universal Controllers basically saves on installation space and features a modular design. The SIMATIC S7-300 also called The Legendary universal PLC by siemens and is used worldwide in many successful operations.
The latest generation of SIMATIC available now is S7 and is programmed in STEP 7 (V5.x or TIA Portal).ġ.
The programs on the SIMATIC devices respond in real time to inputs from sensors on the controlled machines, and send output signals to actuators on the machines that direct their subsequent operation. SIMATIC devices are intended to separate the control of a machine from direct operation, in a versatile manner than controls hard-wired for a specific machine.
