TKP1
Power control device along Tilbury to Kingsnorth |
Type: Control power flow
Status: Strategic Optioneering
Boundaries: SC1.5Rev; SC2Rev; SC3; SC3Rev
Region: South Wales and South England |
Install a power control device along the Tilbury to Kingsnorth 400 kV overhead line route. This would improve the capability to control the power flows in the south east region of the transmission network
|
NOA 2021/22 Refresh Recommendation: Hold |
TKRE
Tilbury to Grain and Tilbury to Kingsnorth upgrade |
Type: Upgrade existing circuits
Status: Strategic Optioneering
Boundaries: EC5E; LE1; SC1; SC1.5Rev; SC1Rev; SC2; SC2Rev; SC3Rev
Region: |
Replace the conductors in the Tilbury to Grain and Tilbury to Kingsnorth circuits with higher-rated conductors, and replace the associated cables with larger cables of a higher rating, including Tilbury, Grain and Kingsnorth substation equipment. This will increase the circuits’ thermal ratings.

TWNC
New circuit between Wymondley and Waltham Cross and increase operating voltage of the network within the area |
Type: Develop new circuits
Status: Scoping
Boundaries: B9; LE1;
Region: South Wales and South England |
To upgrade Wymondley, Waltham Cross and Tilbury from 275 kV to 400 kV, create new double circuit from Wymondley to Waltham Cross, and upgrade Waltham Cross to Tilbury 275 kV route to 400 kV. This would help move flow west to east during periods of interconnector export on the south coast coincident with high wind output further north.
