The cables would be used to build power grids for solar power plants in California, New Jersey and Indiana. These cables enhance the reliability of solar power systems due to their high durability and stable high-voltage transmission performance even in extreme conditions such as high temperatures, rainfall and dust.
The companies have been making proactive efforts to keep pace with the continued growth of the U.S. solar power market, including developing high-quality aluminum cables and obtaining UL certification, a US safety standard.

“LS Cable & System, LS Eco Energy, and other LS cable affiliates, including Gaon Cable, do not use aluminum or copper from China in consideration of raw material quality and supply chain stability. We plan to expand our market by participating in various power infrastructure projects as well as solar power,” said an official of the company.
