France – 24 July 2025
We’ve received an update from our friends in France NON A AQUIND:
A meeting with the Minister for energy took place on the 24th July. Aquind still has to go through many hurdles to get their project accepted by France. These steps will be lengthy and will not oblige the government to accept the Aquind project.
Other interconnections with England are being prioritized well before the Aquind project.
Aquind states in a report that they would start work in 2027 with commissioning in 2030. France currently does not plan any further interconnections with England until 2035.
Furthermore, Aquind will not be able to begin work until it has an agreement in England and France.
Thank you NON A AQUIND
