Energy islands: the next step for offshore wind growth?
Show Notes

As offshore wind grows in scale as a power generation source, so does the need for large-scale interconnection between wind farms across different national boundaries. Energy islands, large-scale energy hubs with interconnections to surrounding countries, provide an innovative solution to this challenge. In this episode, hosts Ben Backwell and Stewart Mullin speak with Hanne Storm Edlefsen, Area manager in Energinet Electrical System Responsibility at Energinet, about the challenges and opportunities for this technology around the world.
