Case Study: TenneT ensures safe offshore converter platform installation with LRQA certification

TenneT certifies BorWin gamma platform with LRQA to meet national and international standards

TenneT, a leading European electricity transmission system operator, required assurance for the safe installation and operation of its BorWin gamma HVDC offshore converter platform. This platform converts wind farm power for transmission to the onshore grid. LRQA was appointed as the independent certifying authority to evaluate and certify the entire project lifecycle.

LRQA provided comprehensive certification services, covering design, construction, transport, installation, and commissioning. Their early involvement in design review helped identify and eliminate potential errors, reducing risk and avoiding costly fixes later. Through clear communication and a collaborative relationship with TenneT and its contractors, LRQA ensured the project complied with national and international standards, supporting the successful delivery of this critical energy infrastructure.
