NKT completes Danish cable factory expansion to support Europe's grid upgrades

NKT has completed the expansion of its medium voltage cable production
facility in Asnaes, Denmark,
marking a key investment in one of the company's primary manufacturing
sites, where it has been producing cable since 1965.
The project began in 2024 with the aim of supporting growing demand for
medium voltage power cable systems and strengthening NKT's overall production
capacity.
The investment will help support grid modernisation, renewable energy integration
and electrification efforts across Europe. The facility also aims to support
the local economy, creating 100 new jobs in addition to the 300 employees
already based at Asnaes.
The expansion includes a new production hall, upgraded manufacturing and
testing facilities, and improved workflow efficiency, allowing higher production
output.
These upgrades allow NKT to meet the demands of an increasingly electrified
Europe while reinforcing Denmark's role as a hub for renewable energy development.
