National Grid plc signs £3bn Eastern Green Link 3 contracts with Hitachi Energy and NKT

National Grid plc signs £3bn Eastern Green Link 3 contracts with Hitachi Energy and NKT

National Grid plc on Wednesday announced it has secured contracts approaching £3 billion for its Eastern Green Link 3 initiative, tapping Hitachi Energy to deliver the converter stations and NKT to handle both subsea and underground cabling. The company called EGL3 the largest electricity transmission project of its type in the UK. The deal comes as Britain looks to curb “constraint costs”—the payouts wind farms get when they’re told to dial back due to grid bottlenecks. According to project supporters, EGL3 aims to cut those snags, moving more clean power from the north and east coast down to where it’s needed further south.

  • Truist Financial (TFC) Still Looks Cheap Even as New CEO Steps In
    July 1, 2026, 5:17 PM EDT. Truist Financial (TFC) has climbed 85.2% in the past three years, but the stock still trades about 33.2% below its estimated intrinsic value by the Excess Returns model, which includes profitability above the cost of equity. Shares sit near $49.82 compared with a $74.61 fair value, suggesting there's room to run even after Michael P. Lyons was named CEO unexpectedly. Most valuation metrics-five out of six-signal the stock is undervalued despite multiples in line with peers. Truist's bets on tech and how it spends capital back the case, but some investors could stay cautious with management changing. The one-year return is 17.8%, lagging rivals and fueling more talk on whether the market's right on price.
