  To contribute to Europe and Belgium’s ambitions for the Energy Transition, our customer plans to extend its offshore high voltage grid. This grid will connect the new Belgian windfarms situated within the “Princess Elisabeth Windfarm Zone.”
  The Princess Elisabeth Zone will also host the energy island. With this, our customer is taking an important step in developing a European electricity grid at sea, supporting European climate ambitions. The energy island will be a key future-oriented electricity hub, receiving cables from both the 2nd offshore wind zone (Princess Elisabeth Zone) and future interconnectors with other European countries such as the United Kingdom and Denmark.

The concept that our customer is currently considering includes:

• Building one offshore artificial island
• Connecting the windfarms at the 66kV level (scope of the windfarm owners)
• Connecting the electrical modules to shore via three-phase 220kV cables

• Review Work Method Statements and procurement documentation
• Check the constructability of engineering works
• Provide input related to construction safety, based on the principles of “Safety in Design
