Battery energy storage systems in the Netherlands
This white paper highlights the current and future developments in electricity wholesale and balancing markets and the interactions between them.
An important direct source of flexibility for the electricity market, are battery energy storage systems (BESS). DNV has been commissioned by Invest-NL to examine the Dutch wholesale and balancing market developments and opportunities for BESS.
The rise of power generation from weather-dependent renewables, combined with a major shift in demand towards increased electrification, leads to new challenges in continuously balancing demand and supply of electricity. An important direct source of flexibility for the electricity market, are battery energy storage systems (BESS).
Battery storage enables electricity to be stored when there is more available than is needed, for example when a lot of solar and wind energy is generated. This stored electricity can then be delivered precisely when demand exceeds the available green power. This ensures that the production of green power is restricted less frequently.
