6 FAQs about [Netherlands pumped storage project bidding]
Are U-PHS projects a viable investment option in the Netherlands?
Although the ongoing energy transition clearly requires massive electricity storage, (U-)PHS projects are challenging investment propositions, in The Netherlands, as elsewhere.
Should net metering be phased out in the Netherlands?
Net-metering is a very big barrier for residential storage, but a bill to phase it out has been recently rejected by the Dutch Senate. On the other hand, there is significant C&I storage in the Netherlands – with EV charger rollout playing an important part in its growth. A small but steadily growing market exists for off-grid projects.
Should the Netherlands build an underground hydro-electric power plant?
The Netherlands should make an effort to construct an underground hydro-electric power plant. Technically speaking a good option, according to 86-year-old Jan Huynen, who gained his doctorate in the subject last week. The Netherlands lags behind other countries in terms of sustainable energy, though we are beginning to catch up.
Does the Netherlands need energy storage?
With a very high renewable energy penetration and a congested electricity grid, the Netherlands has a big need for energy storage. This is highlighted by the TenneT’s estimation for ~9GW of storage needs by 2030. The regulatory environment improved for FoM in 2023 with a reduction on grid fees.
Is there a 'tradition' in hydropower storage projects?
This explains that across the world, the list of new PHS projects and expansions is growing [ 46 ]. For The Netherlands and O-PAC, the absence of a “tradition” in hydropower storage investments, creates a hurdle that is yet to be overcome.
How does surplus electricity work in the Netherlands?
Surplus electricity powers pumps which pump water from low to high, to a high-lying reservoir. When there is no wind, the water is released to flow back down, passing through turbines and generators that generate electricity. The Netherlands has no real height differences of course, and an underground solution is therefore necessary.
