Prysmian Group was selected as the exclusive preferred bidder by the EGL1 joint venture (National Grid Electricity Transmission and SP Transmission) to supply the HVDC submarine and underground cable system for Eastern Green Link 1. The scope covered roughly 400 km of submarine and land cable for a 2 GW, 525 kV HVDC link using extruded XLPE insulation, together with a short 400 kV HVAC cable connection at the Scotland end. Prysmian entered contract negotiations with the aim of concluding a final agreement later in 2023.
