Grid congestion

Making energy projects possible despite grid congestion

Grid congestion

The Dutch electrical grid is under rapidly increasing pressure. Municipalities, businesses and developers are increasingly faced with a lack of connection capacity, which threatens to bring projects to a halt. Witteveen+Bos helps public and private clients achieve their (sustainable) ambitions despite these limitations, from area developments to commercial property expansions and EV charging points.

Identifying bottlenecks

Our experts develop and advise on strategies and solutions that mitigate and temporarily bypass the effects of grid congestion. We evaluate the expected energy consumption and load, identify bottlenecks and study which combination(s) of measures will be most effective, from battery storage to load balancing and grid congestion management solutions.

Technical and strategic excellence

We excel thanks to our integrated approach to technical, strategic and regulatory problems. We combine our extensive knowledge of energy infrastructure with expertise in policy, permits and flexible contract types. This means we can assist our clients with finding feasible solutions and investment decisions, and also help them make a convincing case to the grid operator.

Future-proof energy supply

From port terminals and parking garages to infrastructural redevelopment, we help ensure that projects can be realised with data-driven load analyses, smart energy concepts and zero-emission alternatives that make the energy transition possible despite grid congestion.
