2010Jan3: Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, Denmark, Sweden, Ireland, and the UK, announce plans to build an electricity grid that will link renewable energy projects (i.e., wind, solar, hydro, geothermal) around the North Sea. The grid would link thousands of kilometers of highly efficient undersea cables and could cost about €30bn (Guardian.co.uk).
