Moreover, the limited availability of new grid connections due to severe grid congestion poses additional challenges for potential BESS investors. Flexibility needs in the Netherlands are high, driven by the increasing share of intermittent renewable energy and lack of alternative storage technologies.
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.
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!
Dutch BESS projects mainly participate in two balancing services: Frequency Containment Reserve (FCR) and automatic Frequency Restoration Reserve (aFRR). The Dutch TSO, TenneT, uses these services as the primary and secondary restoration services, respectively, as explained in RaboResearch’s report on the Dutch electricity sector.
The €100 million (US$106 million) allocation is part of a €416 million package for PV co-located battery energy storage system (BESS) technology that was initially to total €41.6 million a year, starting in 2025, for ten years. The 2025 programme is set to open on 1 January 2025, and more details will be released to the House later this year.
