GLITRE NETT AS

Overview

Glitre Nett AS operates as a large regional distribution and transmission system operator with an extensive portfolio of 132 kV grid infrastructure projects across Agder, Buskerud, Akershus, and Vestland. The company's concession activity reflects a broad modernisation and reinforcement strategy, including the flagship 'Kystlinja' coastal grid upgrade along the Agder coast, new transformer stations to serve industrial growth (notably the Morrow battery factory in Arendal), and significant network restructuring following mergers with Norgesnett and Agder Energi Nett. With 52 active concession cases and no Statnett grid queue presence — consistent with its role as a grid operator rather than a power producer — the company's activity is focused entirely on enabling capacity for third-party consumers and producers.

Strategic Focus

Glitre Nett AS is a pure-play grid infrastructure operator with no power production ambitions. Its strategy centres on modernising and expanding the regional 132 kV transmission grid across its licence area, with three clear priorities: (1) the 'Kystlinja' coastal grid reinforcement along Agder replacing ageing 110 kV infrastructure; (2) enabling major new industrial consumption, particularly the Morrow battery factory in Arendal and data centre development in Vennesla; and (3) network integration and rationalisation following mergers, including the absorption of concessions from Norgesnett and Agder Energi Nett. The company also manages a small number of cases related to enabling fish farming and aquaculture connections.

Recent Activity

In the past 30 days, Glitre Nett AS has had two notable developments: a new concession was granted on 20 July 2026 for a 132 kV switching station connection between Nelaug koblingsstasjon and Nelaug omformerstasjon in Åmli municipality (Agder), and a new application was formally registered on 22 July 2026 for rerouting part of a 50 kV cable at Kjoskrysset between Kjos and Lumber in Kristiansand. Both confirm the company remains actively filing and receiving approvals across its Agder grid territory.
