Svenska kraftnät’s 13 August 2026 Fallviken–Horndal note says an updated concession application has been sent to the Energy Markets Inspectorate after complementary consultation at Horndal station. A new remittal is not reserved offtake between Ockelbo and Avesta.

Svenska kraftnät’s 13 August 2026 filing note is the dated Fallviken–Horndal source used here. It says the update of the concession application is complete and has been submitted to the Energy Markets Inspectorate. Comments from the complementary consultation for Horndal station have been compiled in a consultation report that now forms part of the updated application. The inspectorate will remit the updated application again. A new remittal is not a reserved offtake.

The rebuild sentence must stay a rebuild sentence. The Fallviken–Horndal hub writes two new 400 kV alternating-current overhead lines between Fallviken in Ockelbo Municipality and Horndal in Avesta Municipality, about 79 km, plus a new station at Horndal. Today’s double 220 kV line has reached the end of its technical life. The municipalities listed are Ockelbo, Avesta, Falun, Hedemora, Sandviken and Hofors. Those are corridor facts. They are not a hall agreement.

The timetable sentence must stay a timetable sentence. The hub prints an updated concession application in 2026, construction start in 2028 and the new line in service in 2030. The stretch sits inside the NordSyd / Ockelbo package. Those are programme dates. They are not reserved megawatts.

Related grid notes stay on their own pages. The Inlandspaketet Enån–Fallviken close-out, Avesta’s earlier municipal plan paper at Horndal and operator campus notes that name Horndal are different dates and different legal rows. This article does not import an inland consult or a campus name into a Fallviken–Horndal remittal day.

DataCenterSweden records 13 August 2026 as a Svenska kraftnät updated-filing notice for Fallviken–Horndal. No project identifier is attached. The next update would need a later primary source that names a granted concession, a construction start or a reserved consumption agreement beside the corridor. Until then, the August filing stays a remittal — not reserved Dalälven hall capacity.

Why it matters

A 79-kilometre Ockelbo–Avesta rebuild headline is easy to file as spare mid-Sweden hall power. The August note is usable only if the remittal stays a remittal — not a reservation.

What remains unknown

The note does not grant the concession, start construction or name a reserved consumption agreement beside Fallviken–Horndal.
