Meshed Offshore Grid – Driver / Needs

Offshore wind grid connection systems using HVDC technology are nowadays planned and executed in point-to-point connections.
Hitachi Energy performed a future scenario modelling, indicating the need for Offshore wind expansions, where the European case
is urging on so called Meshed Offshore Grids (MOG).
