报告摘要

The Belgian energy market includes major actors such as electricity producers, transmission system operators (TSO) like Elia, distribution system operators (DSO), energy suppliers, and balance responsible parties (BRP). Markets consist of forward, day-ahead, and intraday trading on platforms like EPEX SPOT, enabling hedging and price volatility management. End-user energy prices are influenced by wholesale costs, with dynamic pricing options since January 2021, and mechanisms for peak shaving to reduce peak power fees.

Grid management involves TSO Elia for high-voltage networks and frequency stability, while DSOs handle regional distribution. Regulations are overseen by CREG at federal level and regional authorities, with European network codes shaping the framework for generator and consumer connections, supporting cross-border trade.

Grid balancing is achieved through markets for frequency control reserves (FBR), such as FCR and aFBR, where battery storage can provide flexibility to avoid imbalance charges and restore frequency deviations. Flexibility services are facilitated by aggregators, and the capacity mechanism, including a strategic reserve and capacity remuneration mechanism (CRM), ensures system adequacy and supports new storage technologies.

Compliance with the EU Batteries Directive is mandatory, prohibiting harmful materials and promoting recycling. In Flanders, permits are required for batteries exceeding 10kWh capacity with specific environmental measures, and end-of-life management is handled through producer responsibility schemes or services like BEBAT.

Policies in the National Energy and Climate Plan (NECP) promote energy storage for flexibility and renewable integration, with different governance levels supporting decentralized systems. Legal frameworks allow prosumers choices for self-use or storage, aiming to develop storage capacity as part of the energy transition.

Financial incentives include European funding like M-ERA.NET and Horizon Europe for R&D in batteries and sustainability. Belgian support comprises the Energy Transition Fund for research and development projects, and regional VLAIO grants offering up to 60% subsidies for research and development, along with tax discounts for investors in energy storage assets.

Belgium defines energy storage with regulations that allow notification or permitting based on capacity, facilitating participation in reserve markets like FCR and aFRR. Best practices include test sites such as Smart Village Lab and EnergyVille, which validate storage technologies and support innovations for grid integration and decarbonization.
