The world\u2019s biggest subsea energy interconnector would transfer renewable electricity in both directions, harnessing the sun\u2019s movement across the sky. The subsea interconnector, which is still just a proposal, would consist of three pairs of high-voltage cables stretching more than 3,200 kilometers across the floor of the Atlantic to connect the western United Kingdom with eastern Canada, and possibly New York with western France, according to a report by CNN.<\/p>\n<p>The project would take advantage of the sun\u2019s journey across the sky, supplying electricity from European solar power plants to North America when the sun is shining in Europe, and vice versa. When the sun is high in Europe, the continent has more power than it needs, and that\u2019s when it could send it to the United States, explains Simon Ludlam, founder and CEO of Etchea Energy. He is one of the three entrepreneurs proposing the project. Later, when the sun is at its zenith on the East Coast, Europe can get energy from there, according to him.<\/p>\n<p>The cables could send 6 GW of energy in both directions at the speed of light, an equivalent to the output of six large-scale nuclear power plants, according to Laurent Segalen, founder of London-based renewable energy firm Megawatt-X, also part of the group backing the project. Reflecting the geopolitical implications of the project, they even named it NATO-L, or the North Atlantic Transmission One-Link, according to the report.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/balkangreenenergynews.com\/europe-north-america-could-trade-solar-power-via-worlds-biggest-subsea-interconnector\/\">Balkan Green Energy News<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-547\/\">Europe, North America could trade solar power via world\u2019s biggest subsea interconnector<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[2025,575,1206,573],"class_list":["post-131993","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-atlantic","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-solar-power","tag-trade"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131993","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131993"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131993\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131993"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131993"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131993"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
