ENGIE and NHOA Energy Break Ground on 400 MWh Battery Project in Belgium
KALLO, Belgium--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 14, 2025-- NHOA Energy, the global provider of utility-scale energy storage systems, today celebrated with ENGIE the groundbreaking of a 400 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS) in Kallo, Beveren, Belgium. The project will be delivered by NHOA Energy to ENGIE under a supply contract and a long-term service agreement. The ceremony held this morning in the presence of Mathieu Bihet, Federal Minister of Energy, Marc Van de Vijver, Mayor of Beveren, Vincent Verbeke, CEO of ENGIE Belgium, and Lucie Kanius-Dujardin, Global Managing Director of NHOA Energy, marked the official start of construction on ENGIE's battery park. This comes after the selection of ENGIE in the 4th Capacity Remuneration Mechanism (CRM) auction by the Belgian grid operator, Elia. The CRM was set up by the Belgian government to address the anticipated shortage of installed power capacity, partly due to the planned partial phase-out of Belgian nuclear plants in 2025. This project in particular will play a key role in supporting the region's energy transition while also repurposing the former Kallo power plant, which operated on natural gas and fuel oil until its closure in 2011. NHOA Energy's European power electronics and engineering capabilities, developed in almost two decades of energy storage field experience, will guarantee the performance, resilience and cybersecurity of the Kallo BESS which, once operational, will supply energy for up to four hours, meeting the electricity needs of over 48,000 households. 'It is with great pride that we are launching the construction of this battery park in Kallo today, together with the Minister of Energy, the municipality, and our valuable partners. This is ENGIE's second large-scale park in Belgium, a project that can only be realized through close cooperation with all of them. By developing this additional flexible capacity, we are contributing to the optimal use of wind and solar energy and meeting the needs of the electricity grid,' commented Vincent Verbeke.

Thai mushroom broth
I always keep a stash of dried Asian mushrooms – they're perfect for soups and other dishes. I like to use several types of mushroom, including bamboo fungus, which looks like vegetarian tripe when cooked. You only need two for this broth, though – shiitake and black fungus work well. Try mushroom stocks like Star, Kallo or Knorr. Ingredients 60g dried shiitake mushrooms, soaked in 1 litre of cold water until starting to soften, roughly sliced (reserve the water) 2 mushroom (or vegetable) stock cubes dissolved in 1 litre of boiling water 2 fresh lemongrass sticks, tough outer layer removed, trimmed and finely chopped 2 medium chillies, thinly sliced 40g galangal or ginger, scraped and finely grated 100g coconut cream block, broken up 2 spring onions, trimmed and thinly sliced 1 tbsp chopped coriander 40g dried black fungus, soaked in cold water until starting to soften, cut into bite-size pieces 8 lime leaves, dried or fresh
