Aging population to drive down Korea's housing prices from 2040: experts
LS Cable & System won a project to supply U.S.-based Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative with extra-high-voltage cables to transmit 230 kilovolts of power, the Korean company said Monday.
The cables and connectors will be used for implementing a new power transmission and distribution network being built to handle the increased power demand in southern Maryland, the Korean firm said.
The project will help establish an extra-high-voltage cable network for 1.5 kilometers across the Patuxent River, the company added.
The company is eyeing the U.S. power market as the U.S. government is seeking to remodel its power network, replacing the outdated one built in the 1960s and 1970s.
As of the end of 2011, the capacity of power generation facilities in the U.S. is 1,072 gigawatts, which makes the U.S. the world’s No. 1 power generator and consumer.
“This contract holds great significance in that LS Cable & System won it through competition with leading cable makers from Japan and Europe based on our expertise for successful project implementation and the excellence of our extra-high-voltage cable products,” said Lee Heon-sang, director of the company’s overseas energy sales and promotion division.
