Sea Link is an 86-mile (140km) electricity infrastructure project linking Suffolk and Kent.
The National Grid proposals for the Sea Link offshore project would also include some onshore stations.
This includes sub-stations in Friston, Suffolk and Richborough, Kent, as well as converter stations near Saxmundham, Suffolk and Minster, Kent.It would "increase the network's capacity to manage new energy transmission" in the two counties, assisting the government with its target of reaching net zero emissions by 2050.
"As part of , we will need to build some onshore infrastructure to connect those offshore cables into the National Grid," said Mr Piersenne. "We fully intend to take feedback and make sure we do everything we can to have as small a impact on the local communities as possible," said Mr Piersenne.
