The next five years are expected to see a rapid expansion of renewable energy in the European Union, in order to meet 2030 targets. But it is not only the generation infrastructure that is required, but the transmission networks to get the power where it is needed. High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) technology is being used to create these ‘electricity superhighways’ – and new framework agreements are changing the way projects are delivered.

In the industrial heartland of Teesside, a transformative energy project is taking shape - one that could reshape not only the local economy but also could impact the future of power generation across the UK. Net Zero Teesside Power aims to be one of the world’s first commercial scale gas-fired power stations with carbon capture, providing flexible, dispatchable low-carbon power to the UK grid.
