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.
