Spenningsoppgradering. 300/420 kV-ledning Klæbu - Namsos Forord Som følge av behovet for å sikre en stabil strømforsyning, ønsket om tilrettelegging for utbygging av ny grønn kraft samt målet om en felles kraftpris i Norge, er det nødvendig å øke overføringskapasiteten i sentralnettet. Statnett SF legger derfor med dette frem søknad om konsesjon, ekspropriasjonstillatelse og forhåndstiltredelse for spenningsoppgradering (ombygging) av eksisterende 300 kV-ledning Klæbu – Verdal – Ogndal – Namsos fra Klæbu transformatorstasjon i Klæbu kommune, via Verdal og Ogndal transformatorstasjoner i henholdsvis Verdal og Steinkjer kommuner, til Namsos transformatorstasjon i Overhalla kommune. Ledningen vil etter ombygging kunne drives med 420 kV spenning. Søknaden omfatter også utvidelse av Klæbu transformatorstasjon samt ombygging av Verdal, Ogndal og Namsos transformatorstasjoner, og nødvendige omlegginger av eksisterende ledninger ved inn- og eventuelt utføring til nevnte transformatorstasjoner. Denne strekningen utgjør et av flere trinn i spenningsoppgraderingen av sentralnettet i Midt-Norge. Spenningsoppgraderingen og tilhørende anlegg vil berøre Klæbu, Trondheim og Malvik kommuner i Sør-Trøndelag fylke og Stjørdal, Levanger, Verdal, Steinkjer, Namsos og Overhalla kommuner i Nord-Trøndelag fylke. Statnett har i 2008/2009 søkt konsesjon for en ny 420 kV-ledning fra Namsos transformatorstasjon til Storheia i Åfjord kommune. Videreføring fra Storheia via Snillfjord til Orkdal eventuelt Trollheim i Surnadal kommune ble konsesjonssøkt i mai 2010.

    Port Handbook Chapter A - The Baltic Chapter B - United Kingdom & Ireland Chapter C - Atlantic Europe Chapter D - Iceland, Norway & Faroes Chapter E - Associated Members Copyright 2021 Cruise Europe Word of the chairman Matching cruise industry growth and cruise port capacities Cruise Europe and its more than 100 member ports between Gibraltar in the South, Kirkenes in the North and Lulea in the Baltic still has the potential for growth. Only 75% of the potential cruise ports along the Atlantic coast are members; also one has to include the potential of the cruise ports in Greenland and the area east of the North Cape. The tourist organisations of the ports, the regions, the countries can help as members to make Cruise Europe stronger in marketing the destination Northern Europe to the cruise lines. The aim for Cruise Europe is to match the ongoing growth of the cruise industry in offering better infrastructure in the member ports, which means more cruise terminals, or to point out the diversity of the many destinations and attractions in Northern Europe. Cruise Europe has to open a dialogue with the cruise lines with the intention to spread the growing number of cruise ships and the even bigger cruise passenger capacities over more ports, over more cruise areas, over more countries. The success of the Baltic is also possible in the areas of West Europe, of UK & Ireland and of Norway and Iceland. Cruise lines have to be convinced that all four cruise areas in Northern Europe have equal attractions and many Captain Michael McCarthy good ports to host the growing cruise fleet.

Punctuality has never been better, rail traffic is growing, and in summer 2004 the Norwegian Parliament took the historic decision to invest NOK 26.4 billion in developing a competitive rail network over the ten years from 2006 to 2015. In other words, the anniversary year not only provided the opportunity for a nostalgic look back, but also confirmed that the railways will continue to play a central role in the years ahead.
