Mike said: The English converter/inverter station is a few miles outside of Folkestone in rural Kent. The town where I was born many years ago. It was upgraded with increased capacity several years ago. I have never seen the French side. ////// Interesting Mike. I did read somewhere in my research that the French are considering termination of the intertie because France is starting to see an increased need for the power at home. And since Norway backed out of the proposed Norway-UK intertie in 2003, it sounds like England could be facing a bit of a power shortage in the future.
