Electric Pipeline Corporation has invented and is developing polymer insulated electric pipelines "elpipes" for transmission of 3-30 GW through a pair of underground HVDC lines. Elpipes fit inside a pipeline that is similar to a gas pipeline, or they may be installed at the surface on conventional or narrow gauge railroad tracks. The train like features of elpipes make them convenient to install and convenient to repair.

EUEC Presentations & contacts
I made two presentations at EUEC 2013. I did a presentation on crossing the (shallow) Irish Sea with elpipes with Joe Cornett of mainstream Renewable Power. I also presented a sole-authored paper on "Elpipes as Enablers of an HVDC Supergrid."
