A formal grid connection date of October 2032 has been assigned for exporting power from Yell, contingent on completion of new transmission infrastructure including a planned HVDC link and on-island network reinforcements. This implies that the Yell High Voltage Alternating Current (HVAC) subsea cable linking Yell to the Shetland transmission system is expected to be operational and able to transmit the combined output of the Energy Isles and Beaw Field wind farms to mainland Scotland by that time.
