FAB Link is a proposed HVDC Interconnector, spanning the 220 kilometres (140 mi) between France and Great Britain, running close to the island of Alderney.

[1] In 2017, the French energy regulator said it needed more clarity on the conditions of the UK’s exit from the European Union,[2] putting the whole project in doubt.

In January 2017 applications for licences from the Marine Management Organisation, East Devon District Council and the States of Guernsey were submitted.

[11] The project is being jointly developed by Réseau de Transport d'Électricité (RTE) and FAB Link Limited.

[3] Unresolved conflicts about the appropriateness of this project to the island resulted in the delaying of controversial planning law changes in 2016.

The unprecedented change of law would open the area known as the "Green Belt" to industrial utility development, granting FAB Link permission to lay cables across a rural part of Alderney.

Others believe the link will assist future tidal turbine projects and financially benefit construction and energy production contractors.
