The Curious Case of the 1,200 MW Transmission Size “Limit” in New England
. 5-6 is increasingly creating consternation among both policy makers and developers and threatening to raise the cost and impacts of offshore wind. Part of the reason is that a de facto standard has developed in Europe that utilizes 2,000 MW 525 kilovolt (kV) high voltage direct current (HVDC) cable systems to interconnect offshore wind, with tens of billions of dollars of these systems already ordered and scheduled to be in service by the end of this decade. The 2,000 MW size allows for single wind projects to be larger and benefit from economies of scale spread over more power production
