Solarplaza Summit Energy Storage The Netherlands 2023
Join Solarplaza Summit Energy Storage The Netherlands on 16 February in Amsterdam, the leading storage event in the Netherlands. You will connect with local & European players from both the energy storage field and the PV and wind industries. This event will empower you to take charge of and integrate your ambitions in the Dutch market.
In 2021, 33% of the electricity production in the Netherlands came from renewable energies, a 22% increase since 2020. This influx of renewables into the national power grid has surpassed the speed with which the grid can sustain this growth. Power grid congestion and energy curtailments are realities of our energy management and storage is the leading solution to help mitigate these challenges. This energy storage summit will ensure developers and manufacturers have a full picture of the current market as well as an update on regulations in the Netherlands, and much more.
