Northumberland Energy Park Phase 2
Further development is planned for the 35 HA Northumberland Energy Park Phase 2, a greenfield site which is attractive to businesses operating in the offshore energy and logistics sectors.
Adjacent to Northumberland Energy Park Phase 1, it also benefits from being in a strategic location and has extensive power capabilities.
The North Sea Link, which is located at Northumberland Energy Park Phase 2, will connect the electricity systems of the UK and Norway via high voltage subsea cables from Norway to Blyth in the UK. With a converter station at each end of the cable the interconnector is capable of transferring 1400MW of renewable power – capable of supporting the green energy ambitions of large, advanced manufacturing operations.
