Elia and Amprion commit to close collaboration for second German-Belgian interconnector

The German transmission system operator Amprion and its Belgian counterpart, Elia, have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) relating to the construction of a second cross-border interconnector.

Preliminary studies have shown that a second interconnector would have the potential to help both countries meet their future energy needs, creating socioeconomic welfare for consumers in Belgium and Germany - and, by extension, for the whole of Europe. Amprion and Elia plan to publish a concept note by mid-2024 that will be the basis for the further design and development of the project.
