Belgian grid operator warns of PV overproduction, curtailment in spring

Belgian grid operator Elia says that rapid solar fleet growth is driving earlier seasonal overproduction peaks, raising curtailment risks this spring. It plans to expand flexibility measures to stabilize the high-voltage network. Solar panels installed on Belgian rooftops now total about 11. 4 GW of capacity - an increase of 4 GW compared to two years ago and 1. 4 GW more than in 2024. "During peaks, depending on orientation and other technical limitations, these panels can produce up to 9 GW of electricity," said Belgian grid operator Elia. "Any weather fluctuation, however small, therefore has ...
