WindGrid

In the next few years, large-scale investments in renewable energy production and the offshore grid are due to be undertaken. To make a fundamental contribution to the accelerated development of offshore energy, Elia Group created a new subsidiary: WindGrid.

In recent years, Elia Group has contributed to the development, construction, integration and operation of offshore electricity networks via its subsidiaries Elia and 50Hertz. Through these, it has undertaken large-scale and innovative projects in both the North and Baltic seas. 

With WindGrid, Elia Group will continue to expand its activities overseas, since large-scale investments are being planned to develop offshore electricity grids in Europe and beyond. Indeed, the European Commission is aiming to quadruple Europe’s current offshore wind capacity to 60 GW by 2030 and 300 GW by 2050.
