Belgium's electricity mix shifted sharply after the 2025 nuclear phase-out plan was partially reversed: Doel 4 and Tihange 3 will run until 2035, supplying around 25% of generation, while gas-fired CCGTs cover the steady-state load. Wind — split roughly 60/40 onshore/offshore — provides the largest renewable share, with the country's North Sea zone hosting some of Europe's densest offshore wind clusters. Elia, the national TSO, runs a single bidding zone (BE) tightly coupled to France, the Netherlands, Germany, Luxembourg and the UK via the Nemo Link HVDC.

Day-ahead clearing happens on EPEX SPOT Belgium. Solar PV has tripled since 2020 thanks to generous net-metering reforms; rooftop PV now covers about 9% of annual demand.

Industrial users still rely heavily on imported electricity, especially during winter cold spells when domestic capacity tightens.

FAQBelgium

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices in Belgium are auctioned each morning around 13:00 CEST on Nord Pool / EPEX. The cheapest mix of generation that meets demand wins; that price applies for the next 24 hours.
When is electricity cheapest?
Today's average wholesale price in Belgium is € 0.1555 /kWh. Cheapest hours typically fall between 00:00–04:00 CEST and around midday on sunny / windy days.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The wholesale spot price you see here is one component. Your retail bill in Belgium also adds electricity tax, grid fees, VAT and a supplier markup — total roughly 30–60 % above wholesale.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform, the EU regulator's data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
