Germany Activates Uckermark Power Line to Boost Renewable Energy Transport

The new 380-kilovolt line increases capacity for renewable energy transfer, reduces costs for consumers, and strengthens cross-border energy connections.

The Uckermark power line, spanning 150 kilometers between Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and Brandenburg, has officially been launched.
The line triples the transport capacity for renewable energy, reducing the need to curtail wind and solar power production.
Consumers are expected to save up to €230 million annually due to lower network costs and improved energy efficiency.
The €600 million project is projected to pay for itself within three years through cost savings and efficiency gains.
The line also strengthens Germany's energy grid and enhances cross-border electricity exchange with Poland.
