ENGIE secures Belgian contract to deploy nearly 3,000 public EV charging points in Wallonia


Through its electric mobility brand ENGIE Vianeo, the group plans to install nearly 3,000 charging points in the Wallonia region, strengthening its position as one of the leading public charging operators in the country. Specifically, the company has been selected by Walloon authorities to deploy 2,926 charging points, after previously securing the Brussels-Capital Region contract in March.

According to the company, the new project includes the installation, over the next two years, of 2,926 charging points with a capacity of 22 kW—equivalent to 1,625 stations—across urban centers, public squares, sports facilities, and other public areas. The network will be operated by ENGIE Vianeo for a period of ten years and will cover 242 municipalities, nearly the entire Wallonia region.

The company highlights that, with this contract and the Brussels-Capital agreement—which includes 1,640 charging points and 835 stations—it strengthens its position as a leader in Belgium’s electric mobility market. According to the information provided, the goal is to reach 12,000 charging points in the country by 2028. Currently, ENGIE Vianeo operates the largest charging network in Belgium, with nearly 7,000 charging points (3,500 stations), following its deployment in Brussels and Flanders.

At the European level, ENGIE continues to expand its electric mobility strategy, aiming to reach 25,000 charging points by 2030, including 1,000 dedicated to heavy-duty vehicles. At present, ENGIE Vianeo’s network includes nearly 11,000 operational charging points in France and Belgium and is currently being rolled out in Germany, where the company is also targeting the heavy transport charging segment.

The Executive Vice President in charge of Local Energy Infrastructures at ENGIE, Frank Lacroix, stated, according to the company, that the development of electric mobility is a key strategic priority for the group. In this regard, he emphasized that the electrification of end uses is essential to advancing the energy transition and strengthening Europe’s energy sovereignty, highlighting the role of renewable-powered charging infrastructure in the decarbonization of transport.
