Belgium is facing a very tight power supply during Winter 2018/19 which is, in part, driven by the outages at Engie Electrabel’s nuclear power plants. IUK operates electric driven compressors at our Zeebrugge terminal and as part of our supply agreement, IUK’s electricity provider may issue a demand response request. Given the current stress on the Belgian power market, our supplier has indicated that there is possibility of a demand response request being issued.
