National Grid and TenneT Germany state that the GriffinLink 2 GW multi‑purpose interconnector between Great Britain and Germany is anticipated to become operational in the late 2030s, delivering full commercial power flows of offshore wind-linked electricity between the two countries once development, permitting, and construction are complete. This hybrid interconnector is intended to optimise use of offshore wind resources, enhance cross‑border energy security, and reduce infrastructure impacts by combining interconnection and wind farm grid connections in a single system.
