The Nordic TSOs are constantly working on developing measures to maintain the frequency quality and to control flow changes in the grid coping with the accelerating development in production composition, increase in grid and interconnector capacity and deepened market integration with other synchronous areas. One of the measures that the Nordic TSOs have deemed necessary, is ramping restrictions on HVDC interconnectors.
