On 28 October 2022, transmission system operators Svenska Kraftnät and 50Hertz stated that the Hansa PowerBridge subsea interconnector between Sweden and Germany would be delayed, with the planned date for having the cable in operation pushed from 2026 to 2028/29 due to changed technical requirements and the need to amend tender documents after cancelling the ongoing procurement process. Procurement was expected to restart in the first quarter of 2024, implying a roughly two‑year delay to the project’s entry into commercial operation at its planned 700 MW capacity.
