Netherlands recently announced €100 million in subsidies for the development and integration of battery storage in solar PV projects covering about 160-330 MW for 2025, in response to emerging challenges related to grid constraints and renewable integration in the country.
Electricity storage (using batteries) is currently limited in the Netherlands4. Furthermore, in contrast with electricity networks, electricity storage can be involved in multiple different business cases with varying types of risks, and thus different financing requirements.
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.
As the largest BESS in the Netherlands and one of the largest energy storage projects in Europe, it sets a new standard for balancing and securing power grids.

Public and private institutions investing in the Dutch energy transition need to be able to make efficient and effective investment decisions, which requires a strong, consistent evidence-base. Policymakers are faced with questions such as: How can we finance a successful energy transition that will enable us to meet our climate ambitions?
The country's cumulative solar capacity is said to have exceeded 20 GW this year. Lion Storage has announced its its flagship battery storage project 'Mufasa', with a nameplate capacity of 364 MW/ 1,457 MWh located in the Vlissingen port (North Sea Port), one of the upcoming energy hubs in the Netherlands.
