XLCC will be hosting their next public event on November 29 about plans for their new £1.4 billion facility at Hunterston.

XLCC was awarded full planning permission to build a subsea cable manufacturing site at Hunterston. An environmental impact survey had been performed prior to the award of planning permission.

XLCC's HVDC subsea cable manufacturing operation will be situated in the brownfield site at Hunteston and will create a new UK industry to support global decarbonisation targets.

Once fully operational, the facility will support 900 jobs in the area, with thousands more in the wider supply chain.

XLCC’s first order is for four 3,800km long cables to connect solar and wind renewable power generation in the Sahara to the UK for the Xlinks Morocco-UK power project.

The communications event takes place at the Clark Memorial Church Hall from 3-5pm.

The team will answer questions raised on the day and provide updates Hunterston project.
