At the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium in Brussels, some hundred energy experts united for the kick-off of EPOC and BREGILAB, two projects initiated with the support of the energy transition fund. For the first time, the EPOC project will unite 14 Belgian research institutes, including EnergyVille (KU Leuven, VITO, imec and UHasselt), the Federal Planning Bureau and several Flemish and Walloon universities, to collectively develop energy models to visualize the future of the Belgian energy system. The BREGILAB project investigates how the share of renewable energy in the Belgian electricity grid can be further extended in a cost-effective way. This way, both projects want to systematically support the Belgian energy debate with scientifically based data.
