AG Installations secures €20.3 million tender for second interconnector machinery

This tender is the first of four related to the interconnector project, with others including the manufacture and installation of the submarine cable and additional infrastructure

AG Installations has been recommended to supply and install machinery for Malta’s second interconnector project after its €20.3 million tender bid was selected as the most cost-effective.

The project involves the installation of shunt reactors at both ends of the interconnector, in Magħtab and Ragusa, as well as a 220kV/132kV transformer in Magħtab. The components are crucial for improving the energy transmission efficiency of the interconnector by managing reactive power and adjusting voltage levels.
