NORANETT AS

Overview

Noranett AS operates as a regional distribution system operator (DSO) in the Ofoten and Vesterålen area, holding 9 concession cases centered entirely on grid infrastructure — including transformer stations, transmission lines, and switching stations. The company's portfolio reflects a systematic modernization effort, encompassing new builds, upgrades, and decommissioning of aging 66 kV infrastructure in favor of modern 132 kV capacity. Key drivers include improved regional grid reliability, support for the new Evenes airport, and enabling ferry charging infrastructure.

Active Regions

Strategic Focus

Noranett AS is focused exclusively on regional grid development and infrastructure renewal in the Ofoten–Lødingen–Tjeldsund area of northern Norway. The company is systematically replacing aging 66 kV lines with modern 132 kV infrastructure, building new transformer stations to serve growing demand, and enabling electrification of transport (ferry charging). There is no generation or consumption development activity — this is a pure-play distribution network operator.

Recent Activity

In July 2026, Noranett AS was granted a construction permit for a new 33 kV switching station in Narvik municipality, indicating continued active investment in local grid infrastructure. One earlier application — for an earth fault coil at Kvitnes transformer station — was withdrawn, suggesting a minor scope adjustment in that project.
