TenneT manages the high-voltage grid in the Netherlands and large parts of Germany. With an extensive network of approximately 24,000 kilometres of high-voltage terrestrial and undersea cables, TenneT ensures a secure supply of electricity daily to almost 43 million end-users. Consequently, these high-voltage grids are the backbone of our electricity supply system.

TenneT’s main task is to secure the continuous supply of electricity to more than 42 million end-users in the Netherlands and Germany. TenneT transmits the electricity on which all of the Netherlands relies 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Watch the video and find out how Eurofiber helps TenneT to ensure its security of supply.
Connections configured for redundancy
TenneT is also a key player in driving investment in the energy transition in Europe. Connecting new power sources to the electricity grid and pooling and transmitting electricity is an enormous task in which digitalisation and smart data utilization play a key role. Digital networks are used to manage, monitor and secure the energy grid. This is underpinned by a foundation of reliable connectivity. TenneT has opted for redundant configuration of their fiber-optic connections to limit the impact of any unexpected loss of a network connection.
Fast, reliable and secure fiber connections are essential for the management, monitoring, operation and security of the high-voltage network. As a manager of critical infrastructure, Eurofiber plays a key role in facilitating the energy transition by acting as a partner to TenneT and helping to ensure its supply security. Together, we are committed to supporting a sustainable, reliable and affordable energy future.
