First steel cut for HVAC works for Belgian Offshore Energy Hub

Wednesday, June 25 2025

General – First Steel Cut

Last week, the construction of the high-voltage alternating current (HVAC) infrastructure officially began with a first steel cut ceremony at the HSM Offshore Energy yard in Schiedam (the Netherlands).

The HVAC modules, which include high-voltage substations and a facility module, will be directly installed onto the Princess Elisabeth offshore energy hub (MOG2).

Located 45 km off the Belgian coast, the artificial island will serve as a key connection point for transporting at least 2.1 GW of offshore wind energy generated in the Princess Elisabeth Zone to the mainland.
