Energy without borders - A story of interconnectors

In this episode of the Sound of Green podcast, we explore the potential of increased grid and market interconnectivity through the case of Viking Link: the world’s longest power cable connecting the UK and Denmark. Listen to the episode and get insights from key actors such as Michael C. Hjorth, Chief Commercial Officer at NKT,  Kristoffer Böttzauw, Director of the Danish Energy Agency and Rebecca Sedler, Managing Director of Interconnectors at the UK energy company National Grid. How do you create an energy supply that is both green, affordable and secure all at the same? As the geopolitical events of the past few years have shown, it is an ideal that’s difficult to uphold. However, those same events have also made it clear that we can’t let the flow of renewable energy be constrained by borders if we want to see the green energy transition through. To be sure, distributing energy across borders and connecting both grids and markets requires a complex level of collaboration – one that Denmark has long succeeded in.For more information and case material on interconnectors: https://stateofgreen.com/en/focus-areas/energy-distribution-and-integration/
