The project „Integrated Baltic Offshore Wind Electricity Grid Development (Baltic InteGrid)”, initiated by the Foundation for Sustainable Energy and submitted to the INTERREG Baltic Sea Region Programme, has been approved for the second stage of evaluation. At this stage the project consortium consisting of 14 organisations will develop a full proposal including detailed work plan, budget and distribution of tasks.

The main objective of the project is to develop a concept of a Baltic Offshore Grid integrated with planned offshore wind farms. The project also foresees development of feasibility studies for selected parts of the Baltic grid (including Polish sea areas).

The Baltic InteGrid project is one of 80 concept notes which were qualified to the second stage. Approximately 40 applications are to be financed by the programme in this call.
