The Moyle Return Cables Project was completed in 2016, restoring the Moyle Interconnector to its full 500 MW capacity between Auchencrosh (Scotland) and Ballycronan More (Northern Ireland). The project replaced the original return conductor cables. The north cable was laid in August 2015 and commissioned in early 2016; the south cable was laid in October 2015 with jointing completed during a planned outage in summer 2016. The project was delivered by Mutual Energy, owner and operator of the Moyle Interconnector.
