Elia Group awarded 2020 BelMid Company of the Year
Elia Group receives the BelMid Company of the Year 2020 award during Euronext annual New Year's Ceremony. The company receives this award because it has demonstrated the highest relative increase in market capitalization last year. Since 2005 Elia Group is listed on Euronext Brussels.
Elia Group is active in Belgium (Elia) and in Germany (50Hertz) in electricity transmission and ensures that production and consumption are balanced around the clock, supplying 30 million end users with electricity. As such, Elia Group is one of Europe's top 5. Belgian minister of Finance, Vincent Van Peteghem, presented the award during a virtual webcast. The Euronext Brussels Awards are based exclusively on measurable figures. Elia Group achieved the strongest increase in market capitalization among the companies composing the BEL Mid index in 2020.

Elia Group SA/NV is the Belgian transmission system operator, transmitting electricity efficiently, reliably and securely from producers to distribution system operators and major industrial users. The group is responsible for importing and exporting electricity from and to neighbouring countries.
Elia Group SA/NV owns the entire Belgian very high voltage grid (150 to 380 kV) and some 94% (ownership and user rights) of the Belgian high-voltage grid (30 to 70 kV). The grid is a key link between electricity markets in northern and southern Europe. It also links Belgian producers and consumers. Belgium's recent investment in interconnection capacity with its neighbours makes it one of the most open and interconnected grids in Europe.
Elia Group SA/NV has recently expanded its activities on a broader European level and, following its acquisition of the German TSO 50Hertz and in cooperation with Industry Funds Management (IFM), is now one of the top five transmission system operators in Europe.
