The commissioning of the EGL2 onshore converter stations (Peterhead and Wren Hall/Drax) is scheduled for 2029 as part of the project’s targeted operational date. Hitachi Energy was contracted to supply the HVDC converter technology and, together with BAM and the EGL2 JV, will deliver commissioning activities that enable conversion between AC and DC and the connection of the subsea HVDC link into the onshore transmission network. Full commissioning will be completed prior to the link entering commercial service.
