North Sea Link, Subsea electrical interconnector between Kvilldal and Blyth, Norway and United Kingdom

The North Sea Link extends 720 kilometers beneath the North Sea, reaching depths of 700 meters to connect electrical grids between Norway and England.

The intercontinental power cable project initiated in 2003 with a smaller 1,200 MW design before construction started in March 2015 after extensive studies.

The North Sea Link Education Centre introduces students to renewable energy concepts through exhibits about the interconnector system and sustainability practices.

This electrical connection enables both countries to exchange up to 1,400 megawatts of power, providing electricity to 1.4 million British households.

Engineers drilled a 2.3-kilometer tunnel through a mountain to create a pathway for the cable, demonstrating technical solutions for geographic obstacles.
