Why have we revamped our site?

Elia aims to provide all stakeholders in its activities with accurate and transparent information, and its website is one of the key channels for doing this. We wanted to create a new tool that is structured in line with visitors’ needs while also being appealing and informative.

Our site now includes an Elia Group section with links to system operator activities in Belgium and Germany.

We hope you will enjoy exploring our website. Feel free to send us your comments!

Annual Report 2011

Elia’s 2011 Annual Report is available online in English, French and Dutch. The German version will be available soon.

To guarantee comparability and transparency, the report was drawn up in accordance with the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) methodology. Alongside the financial report and the corporate governance statement, the report also includes the three pillars of sustainable development – the economic report, the environmental report and the social report.

Each of these sections is introduced by one of the following prominent figures: Guido Camps, CREG’s Director for Pricing and Accounts Control, Stephan Singer, Director Global Energy Policy at WWF, and Erwin Sellering, Minister-President of the German federated state of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.
