But meanwhile, increasingly more challenges are emerging in this area. The grid in the Netherlands is not built for feeding back power. Nor are there sufficient opportunities to connect energy projects in all areas. On this page, we discuss the topic of grid integration with you.

Grid operators in the Netherlands are struggling to keep up with the development of solar energy projects. As a result, the availability of capacity often does not adequately match the number of developments in that region and energy projects cannot be connected. There can be many different causes for this including, voltage problems, lack of capacity...
