French interconnector

Kelly Marie Angel

I just had a little look at gridwatch site  and I see the French interconector is back at 2GW  or just shy of so everyone relax power emergency over

    Are you sure that that is not IFA working at half power (1 MW) plus IFA2 (another 1 MW)?

    Dad what is “Bioenergy” and how does it differ from “Conventional Steam”? Do they have animals on small treadmill generator wheels that eat the  husks?

    Oh sorry I thought that there was only1GW  in total not 2 circuits of 1GW each  maybe not time to put the candles away yet

    Just to add that we're probably a little less dependent on the French interconnector than we used to be - since we now have a 1GW one to Holland (BritNed), a 1GW to Belgium (Nemo) and a 1.4GW on to Norway (NSL) (although that one seems to be limited to half power at the moment).
