Since 1880, when Thomas Edison patented his first light bulb, electricity has become an essential power source in our modern life. Being in an age that pursues fossil-free transformation, the integration of the power grid is more important than ever.
SBSS is dedicated to supporting the development of the subsea power grid by bridging the power interconnector through cable installation. Over the past 10 years, we are an impetus for bringing electricity to those who live in distant islands and increasing transmission efficiency in the mainland, with a footprint covering Australia, South Korea, Venezuela, East Europe, Bangladesh and China.
SBSS strives to light the future.
