Abstract
Institutions & Energy Policy
The Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy (EZK), through the Directorate-General for Climate and Energy, oversees the establishment of national energy and climate policies.
The Ministry of Infrastructure and Water Management, through the Directorate-General for the Environment and International Affairs (DGMI), is responsible for environmental policy.
Energy Supply
Resources:
The Netherlands has significant natural gas reserves (659 bcm of proven reserves at end-2019), 75% of which come from the Groningen field. Oil resources are scarce (17 Mt at end 2019).
Energy Prices
Electricity:
In 2020, electricity price for households decreased by 35% (€c14.5/kWh). The sharp reduction in 2020 was mainly driven by tax decreases while the increase in 2019 was mostly due to a rise in the renewable energy surcharge. Electricity price for industry are rather stable (€8.6c/kWh in 2019).
Energy Consumption
Energy consumption per capita (4.1 toe in 2019) is 24% higher than the EU average, mainly because of the large refining and petrochemical industries. Per capita electricity consumption is 6 500 kWh, which is 15% above the EU average.
Total energy consumption has decreased by -2.1%/year since 2017, to reach 72 Mtoe in 2019. Previously it increased by 1.4%/year over 2015-2017.
Issues & Prospects
According to NEO 2020, the primary energy consumption is forecast to decline by 8.5% over 2018-2030. The decline would mainly come from space heating for final consumption and would mostly affect natural gas for primary consumption.
