Antwerp, 25 March 2026, 7:00 CET

TINC, the infrastructure investor listed on Euronext Brussels, invests € 23 million in two greenfield large-scale battery energy storage systems located in Ruien (Kluisbergen) and Langerlo (Genk). These battery systems, represent a total investment value of € 330 million and will contribute significantly to the flexibility and reliability of the Belgian electricity system.

“This investment fits perfectly within our strategy to shape the infrastructure of tomorrow. By investing in flexible energy infrastructure, not only do we bolster the resilience of the electricity system, but we also further grow a diversified portfolio creating long-term value. This investment highlights our ambition to grow towards a € 1 billion portfolio, backed by sustainable and future-oriented infrastructure in Belgium and adjacent countries.” – Manu Vandenbulcke, CEO TINC

Significant expansion of flexible power capacity

With a combined capacity of 300 MW and a total storage capacity of 1,200 MWh, the battery systems represent a substantial expansion of flexible energy infrastructure in Belgium. From the end of 2027 onwards, they will enhance the integration of electricity production from renewable energy sources into the Belgian electricity system.

Both battery systems are developed, constructed and operated by the Belgian renewable energy company Storm.

€ 330 million investment value

The two battery systems represent an investment value of € 330 million. A consortium of Belgian and international lenders(including KBC, Belfius, ING, Rabobank, Triodos, Santander and Société Générale) provide the project financing. Equity is provided by TINC, together with the Flemish investment company PMV and I4B. TINC and PMV are experienced investment partners of Storm and have since 2011 invested in, among others, circa 200 MW of wind farms in Flanders and Wallonia developed by Storm.
