Our Approach

Critical to the early implementation of the SuperGrid is the implementation of a Europe-wide agreement on the essentials of the SuperGrid. The argument we regard as being the supremely important and hardest matter to address. Obvious potential sticking points are territorial rights, royalties for crossing territory, security of transmission andtechnical standards of the grid as a whole.

This site proposes to devote a page (and subsidiary pages) to

Assisting groups in individual countries and progress made within those countries on specific issues.
Troubleshooting potential "sticking points" so they can be openly debated as early and effectively as possible.
Examining financial issues openly
Examining Technical issues openly

Ideally we invite those contacts we have in the area to keep these pages updated in their own language and in English.

Where the situation demands it we will devote pages to specific difficult arguments so the problems can at least be seen by all and, hopefully, addressed.
