Energy Union Connections Private ALEGrO Elia - Amprion The ALEGrO (Aachen Liège Yes Design & 0,45 - 0,570 N/A Permitting process
and Electricity Grid Overlay) Permitting Need for a stable
production project involves the climate for investments
realization of a HVDC Uncertain/unstable
link with a bidirectional rated regulatory framework
power of approximately Need for a long term
1.000 MW capacity, as the vision and commitment
first interconnection between
Belgium and Germany.
First of all, it enhances the
internal market integration
by enabling direct power
exchanges between these
countries
Secondly, the new
interconnection will play a
major role for the transition
to a generation mix which is
undergoing structural
changes in the region (high
penetration of RES, nuclear
phase-out, commissioning
and decommissioning of
conventional power plants
etc.). Given these major
changes in the production
mix, the new interconnection
also contributes to the
security of supply in facing
the arising challenges for
secure system operation.
Energy Union Connections Private NEMO Elia - National Development of a 1000MW Yes Design & 0,6 - 0,7 N/A
and Grid interconnector between Permitting
production Belgium and the UK. This
includes a new DC sea link
including 135km of 400kV
DC subsea cable with
1000MW capacity and the
necessary reinforcements in
the Thames Estuary region.
