Connection

If you are a producer or customer who wants to connect electrical facilities to our grid, you can sign a connection contract with us. If you aren't completely sure yet about your connection request or if you have any questions, Elia can also be your sparring partner for exchanging ideas.

The installations that link a grid user’s electrical facilities to the grid are known as connection facilities, or simply the connection. These connection facilities, and the rights and obligations of Elia and the grid user in relation to them, form the subject of a connection contract between the two parties.
