World’s first artificial energy island
According to the Elia Group, the Princess Elisabeth Island will be constructed between 2024 and 2027, at about 27.9 miles (45 km) off the Belgian coast within the Princess Elisabeth wind zone.

The island is one of ETB’s key projects and is the world’s first artificial energy island.

The project aims to integrate 3.5 GW of additional offshore wind capacity into Belgium’s electricity grid, which can power more than three million households.
