An advanced new dc transmission project, which is without parallel anywhere in the world, has been planned for London. English Electric will provide electrical conversion equipment worth 8.3 million pounds. In the scheme, due to be in service by 1970, underground cables will be used to transfer part of the power from a 2000-MW generating station now under construction at Kingsnorth on the Southern bank of the Thames Estuary to two points in London, Beddington, near Croydon, and Willesden.
