On 22 October 2013, the EstLink 2 HVDC interconnector between Estonia and Finland transmitted load over its cable for the first time, marking initial power flow following completion of construction and installation works by TSOs Elering and Fingrid. This began the system testing phase, during which the link’s performance and converter station functionality were verified under increasing power levels ahead of takeover and commercial operation.
