Major constraints<br />
• Grid development (see panel discussions)<br />
• Aeronautical constraints<br />
• Environmental constraints<br />
• Administrative constraints
Aeronautical<br />
constraints
Aeronautical constraints : political dem<strong>and</strong>s<br />
• Defense protection zones impact the <strong>wind</strong> farm building in huge territories<br />
(e.g. 40% of Wallonia)<br />
Redesign the military training exclusion zones<br />
• New eurocontrol guidelines allow <strong>wind</strong> farm plants until 500m from a radar<br />
(under conditions)<br />
Military authorities <strong>and</strong> Belgocontrol must apply the Eurocontrol<br />
guidelines<br />
•Airport zones<br />
Military authorities <strong>and</strong> Belgocontrol must redesign CTR <strong>and</strong> refine<br />
the impact assessment of <strong>wind</strong>farms in CTR
Walloon <strong>onshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> specificities<br />
• One-stop shop<br />
• Efficient support system based on green certificates <strong>and</strong> quota system<br />
Necessity to maintain an efficient <strong>and</strong> predictable support<br />
system<br />
• Environmental constraints<br />
Necessity to allow <strong>wind</strong> farms in the vicinity of the forest line<br />
<strong>and</strong> inside the forest under clear <strong>and</strong> scientific rules (EIE<br />
clarification)
Walloon <strong>onshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> specificities<br />
• Opportunity of a new <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> regulation framework<br />
The new framework expected in 2011 (« cadre de référence<br />
éolien ») must be linked to ambitious <strong>wind</strong> installation targets <strong>and</strong><br />
to watering down of existing constraints (federal + regional ones)<br />
• Opportunity of an ambitious renewable <strong>energy</strong> <strong>and</strong> a pro-active renewable<br />
electricity targets<br />
Wallonia pledges to reach 20% RES consumption by 2020 (compared to the<br />
13% BE m<strong>and</strong>atory target)<br />
Wallonia pledges to reach at least 8 TWh/y of renewable electricity in 2020

Flemish <strong>onshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> specificities<br />
• Net installed in 2010: 7 turbines or 19,9 MW<br />
• Background: administrative barriers<br />
• 2009: political decision – rural area available for turbines<br />
• Prospects 2011: 45 turbines or 100 MW<br />
Politics can make a huge change !
Flemish <strong>onshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> specificities<br />
Ambitious goals, political support<br />
• 1500 MW by 2020<br />
• Strong focus on grid development<br />
• One stop shop<br />
• A suitable system of green certificates<br />
• Clear priorities in spatial planning<br />
• Guidelines for environmental <strong>and</strong> safety issues in Vlarem<br />
• Positive communication

• BE in Top 4 of EU countries for <strong>offshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> capacity
<strong>Belgian</strong> <strong>offshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> status <strong>and</strong> perspectives
<strong>Belgian</strong> <strong>offshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> specificities<br />
• Grid reinforcements, short <strong>and</strong> long term<br />
• Offshore connection point<br />
• North Sea grid<br />
• Onshore grid reinforcement<br />
• Compensate lost area of 7 th concession<br />
• New <strong>offshore</strong> <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> zones<br />
• Stable support system to attract investment<br />
• Plan logistical support <strong>and</strong> space in ports to avoid bottlenecks<br />
during construction
<strong>Belgian</strong> <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> must power the future<br />
• Wind can deliver a lot of electricity in the future, up to 50% of the<br />
renewable electricity in 2020<br />
• 2000 : 0,01 % <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> power share<br />
• 2011 : 2,5 % <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> power share<br />
• 2020 : 15,7 % <strong>wind</strong> <strong>energy</strong> power share<br />
• To reach this goal:<br />
• Reinforcement of grids + stimulating rules for grid connection <strong>and</strong><br />
injection<br />
• Reduce administrative barriers<br />
• Suitable <strong>and</strong> predictable green certificates system<br />
• Reduce <strong>and</strong> clarify aeronautical <strong>and</strong> environmental constraints<br />
Together we can make the future
