<p>The Electricity System Operator has undertaken consideration of the best approach
to coordinate offshore transmission infrastructure to deliver greater efficiencies,
reductions in planned infrastructure and accelerate the offshore wind delivery. Belgium’s
Modular Offshore Grid connects several wind farms via a single cable. The UK’s Holistic
Network Design delivers a similar outcome at greater scale, covering 21GW of offshore
generation in its first round and 23GW in its second. Our approach will utilise shared
connection points for multiple generators and aims to use multipurpose interconnectors
to transmit energy from generators to consumers; reducing costs and impacts for developers,
communities, and bill-payers.</p>
