The municipality is primarily focused on grid infrastructure development with Statnett leading major 420 kV transmission upgrades to strengthen regional power transmission. While Eramet's industrial facilities continue to expand with energy recovery projects, the recent withdrawal of 320 MW of hydrogen projects signals challenges in attracting new industrial consumers.
Recent Activity
Significant activity with three major hydrogen projects (335 MW total) withdrawn from the grid queue in February, while Eramet received new concessions for industrial energy recovery facilities and grid infrastructure expansion continues.
