What the sources say
Elia lists a 7 MW unit named Drogenbos Batteries from January 2025, and still lists it. Its owner is not named anywhere we have found. It is probably ENGIE’s 6 MW test battery of 2017 at its Drogenbos power station, but ENGIE said on 28 May 2026 that the old test battery is being removed to make room for its new 80 MW park on the site, so whether the Elia unit is that battery is unsettled.
