Getlink, through its subsidiary Getlink Projects 2 Limited, is developing the ElecLink 2 project, a 1,000 MW GB–France interconnector routed through the second Channel Tunnel, with Ofgem confirming the interconnector licence for operation between East Kent Node B in the UK and a new substation at Port of Dunkirk/Bourbourg in France. The project website states that ElecLink 2 is targeted to enter commercial operations in the mid‑2030s, providing additional secure and low‑impact cross‑Channel transmission capacity based on a technical replication of the existing ElecLink asset.
