Approval procedures for the Bornholm Energy Island project launched
An important milestone has been reached for the hybrid interconnector Bornholm Energy Island (BEI): first public consultations have started in both countries.
The transmission system operators 50Hertz and Energinet have jointly submitted an application to start the environmental impact assessment (EIA) to the Danish Environmental Agency SGAV for the “BEI Interconnector Bornholm-Germany.” To this end, in November 2025, the public on Bornholm and relevant stakeholders were invited to the first public consultation. In Germany, the first public consultation took place in April 2025.
Bornholm Energy Island is a European PCI project (project of common interest), and the approval procedures are therefore being carried out according to the European TEN-E regulation.
