Belgium has announced a 4 GW target for its installed offshore wind capacity by 2030. A draft of the National Energy and Climate Plan said renewable energy would make up 13% of generation by 2020 and 18.3% a decade later. The plan also called on all electricity providers to increase their share from renewables in 2030, with an aim at reaching 50% by 2025. The plan also includes the integration of systems with the grid, decarbonisation schemes for heating and industrial plants and a complete end to nuclear generation by 2025.

The country is fifth in global wind energy rankings after the 309 MW Rentel plant came on line. The plan also includes the integration of systems with the grid, decarbonisation schemes for heating and industrial plants and a complete end to nuclear generation by 2025.
