How does the electricity grid work in Norway?
The electricity grid enables electricity transport from producers to consumers, and connects Norway’s power system to other countries’ systems. The three fundamental functions of the power supply system are: A reliable supply of electricity is crucial in modern society.
What are the three levels of the Norwegian electricity grid?
The Norwegian electricity grid consists of three levels: the transmission grid (operated by Statnett), the regional distribution grid and the local distribution grid. Both the regional and the local distribution grids are considered as distribution systems, as defined by EU legislation.
Where are electricity production resources located in Norway?
Electricity production resources are often located far from where consumption takes place. A well-developed electricity grid makes it possible to transmit power from the hydropower plants in the southwest and north to consumers in other parts of Norway and abroad.
How many kV does a transmission line carry in Norway?
In Norway, Statnett is the designated transmission system operator (TSO). The transmission grid carries a high voltage, usually 300 to 420 kV, but in certain parts of the country there are also lines carrying 132 kV. The total length of the transmission grid is about 12 000 km.
Why is transmission capacity important in Norway?
The wide variations in domestic production and consumption make it necessary to have sufficient transmission capacity both between different regions of Norway and between Norway and other countries.
Who owns the transmission system in Norway?
Statnett is the transmission system operator (TSO) in Norway, and owns the transmission grid in Norway. Statnett is responsible for ensuring that there is an instantaneous balance between the production and consumption of electricity in Norway at all times.
