What is proposed

The Continental Link Multi-Purpose Interconnector is a high voltage direct current (“HVDC) electricity interconnector that can connect Great Britain to other European markets, to be connected to the British National Transmission System (“NTS) via the Creyke Beck substation near Cottingham, East Yorkshire. In addition to providing an electricity interconnection between countries, the project may also provide a connection for offshore windfarm(s) to the NTS via the interconnector.
