Eastern Green Link

Eastern Green Link is one of several developments required to increase the capability of the transmission network from the North-East of Scotland to the North of England. The increase is required to facilitate the growth in flows of renewable energy generation in the North to centres of demand in the South; helping to ensure the UK can meet its target of enabling 40GW of renewable energy by 2030 and achieving a ‘Net Zero economy’ by 2050.
