Cover picture: inauguration event at the Nemo Link converter station in Bruges.
On December 5th 2018, Elia and National Grid inaugurated the fi rst submarine electricity interconnector between Belgium and the United Kingdom. The commissioning of Nemo Link facilitates the integration of renewable energies while offering additional security of supply and lower priced electricity. The inauguration of the Nemo Link interconnector marked the culmination of an enormous project that took nearly 10 years to complete. Connecting the Richborough and Herdersbrug (see cover picture) converter stations via a 140 km cable, was an extremely complex undertaking that entailed many technical challenges. It never could have succeeded without the determined efforts of the men and women who worked together to overcome all of these diffi culties.
