Description

Description

The Princess Elisabeth Island, located about 45 kilometers off Belgium's coast near Ostend, is designed to connect offshore wind farms to the national electricity grid and establish an undersea power link with the UK. The project aims to combine offshore wind infrastructure with international electricity links to strengthen Belgium's role as an energy hub in northwestern Europe. The revised plan reduces costs by around €2 billion compared to the previous plan and slightly reduces the UK interconnection capacity from 1.4 GW to 1.2 GW.
