On August 26, Taihan Electric Wire announced that it has secured a project worth 180 billion KRW to build an ultra-high voltage power grid from the Qatar General Electricity & Water Corporation.


This project involves expanding the transmission system to ensure stable delivery of electricity produced at a large-scale desalination combined power plant to all regions of Qatar.


Taihan Electric Wire will be responsible for the entire process-from design, production, laying, connection, to testing-of the local ultra-high voltage power grid at 400kV (kilovolts) and 220kV, under a full turnkey contract.


Previously, on August 21, Taihan Electric Wire also won a 40 billion KRW ultra-high voltage power grid project in Qatar, also under a full turnkey arrangement.


Qatar is regarded as a market that demands the highest level of technological expertise among Middle Eastern countries. In particular, for ultra-high voltage power grid full turnkey projects, rigorous evaluations are conducted across all areas, including quality, technology, engineering, and project management.



A representative from Taihan Electric Wire stated, "As demand for power infrastructure continues to grow in Qatar and the broader Middle East, we plan to further strengthen our presence in the region by expanding our business portfolio to include high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cable systems and submarine cables."
