The limiting factor in many sustainable energy projects (from solar parks in Groningen to wind projects in Flevoland) is nowadays often obtaining a suitable grid connection. Or better said: the limited capacity of that grid connection. This is because the distribution network can keep up with the rapid growth of sustainable energy to the extent that it is now. As a result, more than 35% of the distribution network is already without a suitable grid connection. Therefore, the growth of sustainab...
