Redefining Energy

177. The Transatlantic Power Cable: from concept to reality - Apr25


Listen Later

There's been a great deal of excitement and curiosity surrounding the idea of a Transatlantic Interconnector. So, as co-founders, Laurent Segalen, Gerard Reid and Simon Ludlam have decided to release a special episode to bring our listeners up to speed on where things currently stand.

While we can’t dive into our discussions with governments and system operators—those are protected by NDAs—rest assured, those conversations are very much underway, as you might expect. To put this episode together, we have brought in a range of perspectives:
  • First, you'll hear an excerpt from a conversation with John Pettigrew, CEO of National Grid, on the Aurora Unplugged podcast last October, where he discusses the potential of ultra-long interconnectors.
  • Next, we feature an interview with Laurent on the Jolts podcast from this February.
  • That’s followed by a deep dive into the technical aspects with Cornelis Plet, Global Head of HVDC at DNV.
  • We then explore the legal landscape with Silke Goldberg, partner at Herbert Smith Freehills and one of the world’s foremost legal experts in this area.
  • And finally, we wrap up with a conversation between the three co-founders, where Simon Ludlam lays out the key steps ahead in the coming months and Gerard engages with investors.
We hope this gives you a clearer picture of what has been accomplished so far—and what lies ahead on this ambitious journey.

A lot of information, reports and data are available on www.nato-l.org
