Energy Islands progress
The artificial island sited 45km off the coast will form a crucial link in Belgium’s energy supply and open up the future 3.5GW Princess Elisabeth wind zone. It will also connect to Britain and Denmark via additional interconnectors in the Nautilus and TritonLink projects.
The construction of the foundations of Princess Elisabeth Island will begin in early 2024, with completion planned for mid-2026. Following this, installation can begin of the high-voltage infrastructure needed to bring electricity from Belgium’s future offshore wind zone to shore. Elia aims to ensure all wind farms are fully connected to the mainland by 2030.
