The North Seas Countries' Offshore Grid initiative (NSCOGI) was formed as the responsible body to investigate barriers and propose solutions to the 10 countries' energy ministers, in order to enhance the topic to a next stage. The paper describes investigations and their results comparing two different offshore grid design concepts. The concepts are based on the single 10 governments' best views on 2030 generation portfolios and load situation and describe a radial solution on the one hand, and a meshed offshore grid on the other hand. The methodology, assumptions and results are presented.
