Elia's Academic Board meets for the second time to foster collaboration and address challenges linked to the energy transition
On 19 October, Elia's Academic Board met in person for the second time in Brussels.
Since its launch in October 2022, the Board has been driven by a twofold vision: firstly, that of fostering collaboration between Elia and different universities and working on innovative projects with academia; and secondly, facilitating discussions about topics linked to the energy transition. Whilst Elia can see the challenges that will need to be addressed in the future, it understands that partnerships are crucial for expanding and strengthening its skills and expertise. With this in mind, Elia hosted professors and researchers from across Belgium and different academic fields at its headquarters in Brussels.

Elia Group SA/NV is the Belgian transmission system operator, transmitting electricity efficiently, reliably and securely from producers to distribution system operators and major industrial users. The group is responsible for importing and exporting electricity from and to neighbouring countries.
Elia Group SA/NV owns the entire Belgian very high voltage grid (150 to 380 kV) and some 94% (ownership and user rights) of the Belgian high-voltage grid (30 to 70 kV). The grid is a key link between electricity markets in northern and southern Europe. It also links Belgian producers and consumers. Belgium's recent investment in interconnection capacity with its neighbours makes it one of the most open and interconnected grids in Europe.
Elia Group SA/NV has recently expanded its activities on a broader European level and, following its acquisition of the German TSO 50Hertz and in cooperation with Industry Funds Management (IFM), is now one of the top five transmission system operators in Europe.
