Final Report
Baltic InteGrid: towards a meshed offshore grid in the Baltic Sea
The final report "Baltic InteGrid: towards a meshed offshore grid in the Baltic Sea" is laying out the key findings of the project at length, which can be further studied in even more depth in the underlying reports from the different thematic working groups of Baltic InteGrid below.
The report includes a visionary roadmap towards an integrated offshore energy grid in the Baltic Sea (Baltic Offshore Grid - BOG 2050).
Besides the full report, there is also an abridged version in the form of a 24-page "Summary Report" of the findings (for print outs, use A3 format for best display of pages), if you are short on time and prefer a brief overview.
PreFeasibility Case Studies
Towards a Baltic Offshore Grid: Connecting electricity markets through offshore wind farm (PreFeasibility Case Studies)
The report "Towards a Baltic Offshore Grid: Connecting electricity markets through offshore wind farms" is laying out the step-by-step analysis of the two PreFeasibility Case Studies of the Baltic InteGrid project with different built-out and integration scenarios of interconnecters and OWE farms between Poland-Sweden-Lithuania (Case Study 1) and Germany-Sweden (Case Study 2)
