Converter Preferred Supplier

The EGL1 joint venture selected a consortium led by GE Vernova’s Grid Solutions business, in partnership with MYTILINEOS Energy & Metals, as preferred suppliers to provide the two HVDC converter stations (one at each end of the link). The appointment covered engineering and technology for VSC HVDC terminals that will convert DC to AC for connection into the onshore transmission network; full contracts were contingent on final regulatory approvals from Ofgem.
