Vattenfall and partners to build UK-Norway interconnector

Vattenfall has signed a co-operation agreement with four energy companies to plan and build an electrical interconnector between the UK and Norway.

Vattenfall and its partners, Agder Energi, E-CO, Lyse, and Scottish and Southern Energy, agreed to establish Northconnect, a jointly owned interconnector-development company.


‘Northconnect will make an important contribution towards developing the European market for electricity, with increased competition in regional markets, a secure supply of electricity and more stable energy prices for consumers,’ said Harald von Heyden, head of Vattenfall Asset Optimisation and Trading.
