The Belgian consortium TM EDISON, including DEME and Jan De Nul, is building the world’s first artificial energy island.
The island is set to be a crucial link in Belgium’s energy supply.
It will open up the future Princess Elisabeth wind zone (3.5 GW) and connect Belgium with Great Britain and Denmark via new interconnectors (Nautilus and TritonLink respectively).
Also, the island will be the first building block of an integrated European offshore electricity grid that will connect various hubs and countries together.
