The European Commission (EC) has approved a EUR 682 million Belgian scheme to back the construction and operation of an offshore wind farm in the North Sea. This approval sets the stage for the auction, planned to be launched on 28 October, for the first 700 MW wind farm in the Princess Elisabeth Zo
The artificial energy island will be built some 45 kilometres off the Belgian coast, within the Princess Elisabeth offshore wind farm zone, and span approximately five hectares above water. The area that will house the electrical infrastructure will be built across approximately six hectares.
The island is expected to be built by 2026 and connected to the grid by 2028, with the first turbines operational by then.
