The vast majority of the 20 MW of installed energy storage capacity in the Netherlands is spread over just three facilities: the Netherlands Advancion Energy Storage Array (10 MW Li-ion), the Amsterdam ArenA (4 MW Li-ion), and the Bonaire Wind-Diesel Hybrid project (3 MW Ni-Cad battery).
The Netherlands is an emerging market for battery storage but, due to the lack of saturation, also a highly exploitable one. In early 2025, enspired, together with Flexcity and S4 Energy, reached an exciting milestone by taking the country’s first 4-hour BESS live in a cross-market optimization setup.
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.
However, businesses often pay higher absolute network fees due to larger capacity connections. In sum, an average Dutch household’s retail price (with fixed contract) might break down roughly into ~30–40% commodity cost, ~25–35% grid fee, ~30–33% taxes, plus 21% VAT on top of all of that.
The 3 MW Bonaire Wind-Diesel Hybrid project is a battery array located on the Dutch Caribbean island of Bonaire and used as a buffer between intermittent wind energy and the diesel-generation stations on the island.
