London Power Tunnels is a project by National Grid plc to reinforce the electricity transmission network in London, UK, by constructing more than 60 km of new deep-level tunnels carrying high-voltage cables. The new network of tunnels replaces a series of ageing power cables, most of which were buried directly beneath roads. These were becoming unreliable, difficult to maintain without disrupting traffic, and were unable to meet future demand for electricity. The new tunnels allow the power cables to be upgraded and maintained without disruption to traffic and residents on the surface.

  • London Power Tunnels is a project by National Grid plc to reinforce the electricity transmission network in London, UK, by constructing more than 60 km of new deep-level tunnels carrying high-voltage cables. The new network of tunnels replaces a series of ageing power cables, most of which were buried directly beneath roads. These were becoming unreliable, difficult to maintain without disrupting traffic, and were unable to meet future demand for electricity. The new tunnels allow the power cables to be upgraded and maintained without disruption to traffic and residents on the surface. The project is divided into two phases: the first phase involved constructing tunnels connecting substations at Wimbledon, Hackney, and Willesden, and was completed in 2018. The second phase involves linking Wimbledon substation with Crayford, and is expected to be completed in 2026. (en)
