Netherlands' climate minister has allocated €100 million in subsidies to the deployment of battery energy storage system (BESS) technology.
Without subsidies, transmission system operator TenneT expects about 2GW of BESS to be online in the Netherlands by 2030, much lower than the 9GW it forecasts it needs. See Jetten’s letter announcing the accelerated deployment of the funds (in Dutch) here. This isn’t just another summit – it’s our biggest and most exhilarating Summit yet!
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.
Building a business case for BESS in the Netherlands has been a major challenge for the industry, as detailed in interviews with developer-operator SemperPower (Premium access) and developer Lion Storage, with SemperPower saying that virtually no new grid-scale BESS would come online in 2024.
Market participants also indicated that they wanted national targets set for energy storage solutions, and more efficient permitting procedures to support them in the development of storage assets. The government responded to some of the feedback from market participants, issuing its first Energy Storage Roadmap in June 2023.
While the EU Commission has not yet set specific targets for energy storage assets, as part of the electricity market reform plans they announced a list of recommendations on energy storage. These recommendations offer member states guidance on how best to exploit the potential of energy storage.
