Regulatory Other

Bornholm Energy Island was incorporated into Germany’s national transmission planning framework when it was included as project P640 in the German Network Development Plan (Netzentwicklungsplan, NDP) 2037/2045 (2023). Within this plan, the specific Bornholm–Germany HVDC interconnector sub‑project is referenced as measure M901a. This designation reflects a formal recognition of the project and its associated interconnector within Germany’s long‑term grid development strategy, covering the submarine cable between Bornholm and Mecklenburg‑Western Pomerania and the related onshore infrastructure. The inclusion signals regulatory alignment of the project with national grid expansion priorities and provides planning certainty for 50Hertz and Energinet as they progress the Bornholm Energy Island interconnector.
