What we do

XLCC is committed to being a trusted end-to-end provider of HVDC subsea cable projects, ensuring quality at every stage of the cable system lifecycle.

As a new entrant, we leverage our team’s expertise, experience, and cutting-edge digital manufacturing and project execution to drive efficiency and deliver added value to our customers.

Our responsibility spans the entire cable project process—from design engineering and manufacturing to handling, installation, and maintenance. To support this, we are establishing the UK’s first dedicated HVDC factory to produce subsea cables for cross-border electricity transmission, grid reinforcement, and offshore wind farm export.

We will also be in control of a state-of-the-art Cable Laying Vessel and will have a fully dedicated and integrated engineering team with offices in Scotland.

We prioritize the health and safety of our workers, clients, partners, and stakeholders, maintaining the highest standards across all projects.

Driven by innovation and sustainability, we are shaping the future of energy transmission while minimizing environmental impact at every step.
