Green energy providers face a potential shortage of transmission cables | FT Rethink

The rapid growth in renewable energy capacity is driving demand for long-distance transmission cables. These can carry energy ashore from distant, deepwater wind farms, or transfer it between countries. But as the FT’s Rachel Millard explains, analysts believe we could be facing a cable shortage by the second half of this decade, and getting plugged into grids could prove a greater challenge than generating the power itself. #greenenergy #powertransmission #renewableenergy ‘ Credit to : Financial Times
