Why is energy storage important in the Netherlands?
Energy storage can play a key role in contributing to solutions for shortages of capacity on the grid. It is therefore no surprise that we have seen the appetite for large-scale battery energy storage systems growing in the Netherlands.
Should electricity storage be regulated in the Netherlands?
However, the Dutch regulatory authority, the Netherlands Authority for Consumers and Markets (ACM), can grant exemptions where electricity storage is necessary for grid operators to perform their statutory duties but where market participants are not sufficiently investing in storage capacity.
Is the Dutch electricity grid under strain?
S4 Energy’s CCO, Dominique Becker Hoff, stated that the Dutch grid is under strain, citing growing demand and a mismatch between renewable energy availability and demand. “It is no secret that the Dutch electricity grid is under strain. The demand for electricity is growing faster than infrastructure can be expanded,” said Becker Hoff.
What happens if the Netherlands doesn't have enough energy storage?
Without adequate energy storage, the Netherlands risks increasing grid instability and security of supply risks,” Lion Storage said in its announcement. Rupert told that the company has chosen the BESS provider for the Leopard project in the Netherlands though isn’t revealing it at this stage.
Why is the Netherlands focusing on battery electricity storage?
In order to meet its ambitious CO2 reduction targets and minimise the country’s dependence on Russian fossil fuels, the Netherlands is now more focused than ever in the development of battery electricity storage.
Is there a roadmap for energy storage in the Netherlands?
In 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.
