NorthConnect is a project set up to develop, consent, build and operate an HVDC electrical interconnector between Peterhead in Scotland and Simadalen in Norway. The 665km long, 1400MW interconnector will provide an electricity transmission link allowing the two nations to exchange power and increase use of renewable energy. The intention is for the HVDC interconnector to be operational by 2023.

The NorthConnect Meet the Buyer day will allow potential supply chain organisations from Tier 1 contractors to SME's and micro businesses the chance to learn about the project, hear about the different packages involved and speak to the team directly and an opportunity for 1-2-1 for contracts involving the converter station, enabling works, cable laying, construction management, civils, engineering and supervision as well as peripheral economic opportunites locally.

Please book a ticket for the 'Main Presentation'. Then, you can also book a 10 minute slot with a specific package manager now, or you can wait until you're there on the day and book up using the time slot sheets which will be made available. During the 1-2-1 sessions in the afternoon there will be the opportunity to network over coffee with other organistaions interested in the project.
