Legal and market analyses of the Belgian Princess Elisabeth Zone state that the tenders for the two larger offshore wind sites (Lots 2 and 3, including Noordhinder South) will be organised between 2026 and 2028, with these projects and their associated grid connections via the Princess Elisabeth Island expected to be commissioned and fully operational by 2030. For the PEZ Lot 2 – Noordhinder South HVAC connection, this implies that the export cables and offshore substations linking the Noordhinder South concession to Princess Elisabeth Island are planned to reach full commercial operation around 2030, aligned with the commissioning of the Lot 2 wind farm and the wider MOG II grid scheme.
