Renewable Energy Potential Maps for European Reporting

European renewable energy targets are increasing. Flanders needs to translate them into realistic wind energy ambitions but lacked an updated spatial potential assessment.

VITO performed a macro-scale spatial analysis to quantify wind energy potential in Flanders, based on spatial constraints and policy frameworks. VITO deployed its Dynamic Energy Atlas to deliver an objective, GIS-based assessment that strengthens evidence-based energy planning.

The results support policymakers in defining realistic targets and evaluating policy adjustments.
