Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Belgium's offshore windfarms in the North Sea generated about 7.07 terawatt-hours (TWh) of electricity in 2024, covering 8.7% of the nation's electricity consumption.
The output equates to the annual energy needs of 2 million households, according to the Belgian Offshore Platform (BOP), an association of offshore windfarm owners and investors.
Belgium ranks fifth in Europe for offshore wind capacity, with 2.26 gigawatts (GW), trailing the United Kingdom (14.8 GW), Germany (8.85 GW), the Netherlands (4.7 GW), and Denmark (2.7 GW). Future growth is anticipated as the Princess Elisabeth zone is set to expand capacity to 5.8 GW by 2030. A public tender for 700 megawatts (MW) was initiated in November, with results expected by late 2025.
Industrial Info is tracking five active offshore wind projects, worth US$23.844 billion in Belgium. Subscribers to Industrial Info's Global Market Intelligence (GMI) Power Project and Plant databases can click here for the project reports and here for the related plant profiles.
