The SuedOstLink is one of the largest and most important projects of the energy transition in Germany. It will be constructed as a double underground cable with a length of approx. 540 km and will bring the electricity generated from wind and solar energy from the north to the centers of consumption in the south of Germany. A bidding consortium led by CDM Smith has already been commissioned by the transmission system operator 50Hertz Transmission GmbH in 2022 for the approx. 90 km long A2 section in Saxony-Anhalt for the task of construction management and construction supervision. In the 270 km long southern section of the SuedOstLink, TenneT is responsible for planning and construction and is currently conducting the necessary approval procedures up to the planning approval stage there.
Following CDM Smith’s previous assignment for the construction management and supervision of the A2 section in the federal state of Sachsen-Anhalt, TenneT has now also contracted us for the 270 km segment of the SuedOstLink in Bavaria.
