THE NETHERLANDS ADVANCEMENTS IN RENEWABLE
In all these studies, the implications of far-reaching GHG emissions reduction (ranging from 75% to 100%) in the energy system are investigated with energy system models, which can determine the
View DetailsIn the Netherlands, there has also historically not been a roadmap or detailed industrial strategy with supportive legislation, policy, taxation reliefs, or investment incentives for the energy storage market.
No specific laws & regulations: In the Netherlands, energy storage is not described in Dutch laws and regulations as a specific item. Standard requirements: It has to meet standard requirements for production and consumption and some specific technologies that are part of the energy storage system must comply with standardisation.
Energy Storage NL is the subject matter expert on energy storage and conversion technology. We promote awareness and knowledge about the current and future role for energy storage and conversion in the energy system. Energy Storage NL represents the broad energy storage sector towards governments and external stakeholders.
The Dutch national energy regulator, the ACM (Authority for Consumers and Markets), has taken measures to regulate congestion on the electricity grids. Grid congestion may result in a project having a grid connection, but no transmission capacity (which makes the connection de facto useless).
In all these studies, the implications of far-reaching GHG emissions reduction (ranging from 75% to 100%) in the energy system are investigated with energy system models, which can determine the
