Offshore High Voltage Stations
The two offshore high voltage stations (OHVS) are the centre of the Gemini operation in the North Sea. The main purpose of the OHVS is to house the electrical high-voltage and medium-voltage components which transform power supplied by the wind turbines in order to export the power to the onshore grid. The OHVS platforms convert the energy generated by the turbines into 220 kV of electricity.

Installation
The OHVSs are several storeys high, the size of an average apartment building with on the inside all the technical equipment needed to transform the energy from 75 turbines in each park into the 230 kV current that is conveyed to the mainland through the export cables.
Both OHVSs were built in Hoboken, Belgium and then shipped out to sea, where a heavy lift vessel installed the 2200 ton platforms on top of the jackets.
