Offshore wind capacity in the Baltic Sea Region (BSR) could reach 9.5 GW by 2030.1 The objective of the Baltic InteGrid (BIG) project is to conduct interdisciplinary research that will promote efficient offshore wind deployment in the region. BIG research explores the framework conditions, opportunities, and barriers relevant to the development of a regional meshed grid. This qualified overview paper summarises four previous BIG reports that cover the market and supply chain for offshore transmission in Europe and the BSR; potential Baltic hubs for offshore grid development; and business opportunities for local small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).
