There are a number of submarine cable routes being planned and under construction throughout Europe; these are built in the interest of trade and for the integration of renewable energy into the European grid.
Cables are a huge investment; both of time and money, and any challenges arising could result in operational and financial losses. The planning of these routes is essential as topography, existing cables and fishing areas must be considered. While the legislation governing the transfer of energy has been relaxed there are other legal obstacles regarding the physical laying of a submarine cable. Permits must be obtained from the interested countries however, this can prove difficult as the involvement of more than one country and international waters can mean that there is no single set of requirements.
This exclusive marcus evans event will allow electricity players to get an understanding of how to overcome the challenges thrown up by the laying of submarine cables.
Attending this Premier marcus evans Conference Will Enable You to:
· Understand how to reduce delays in permit approval
· Evaluate the need for submarine cables to incorporate renewable energy into the European markets
· Gain valuable insight into existing HVDC connections
· Discuss the impact of submarine cables on trade
· Explore the economic viability of submarine cables
Forum will be held in Stockholm from 23- 25 May. 2011.
