The Netherlands runs one of Europe's most gas-dependent electricity grids — gas-fired CCGTs covered ~50% of generation in 2024 — but is also the EU's fastest renewables-deployer per capita. TenneT operates the joint Netherlands TSO role and the German DE-LU bidding zone, making the country one of Europe's most electrically integrated. Solar PV expanded explosively after the 2018 SDE++ reform: by 2024, over 22 GW was installed — roughly one panel per resident — covering ~17% of annual demand and frequently driving midday prices below zero in spring.

Offshore wind in the North Sea has grown to ~5 GW with another 21 GW contracted by 2032. The single Borssele nuclear reactor (~3% of supply) will be joined by 2–4 new units in the 2030s under the 2024 government plan.

Coal generation ends in 2030; the Maasvlakte 3 plant is among the youngest coal units in Europe to be retired prematurely.

FAQ — Netherlands

How is the electricity price determined?
Day-ahead prices in Netherlands are auctioned each morning around 13:00 CEST on Nord Pool / EPEX. The cheapest mix of generation that meets demand wins; that price applies for the next 24 hours.
When is electricity cheapest?
Cheapest hours typically fall between 00:00–04:00 CEST and around midday on sunny / windy days.
Why is my electricity bill higher than the spot price?
The wholesale spot price you see here is one component. Your retail bill in Netherlands also adds electricity tax, grid fees, VAT and a supplier markup — total roughly 30–60 % above wholesale.
How accurate is this data?
Source: ENTSO-E Transparency Platform, the EU regulator's data feed. Updated every 10–20 minutes.
Are tomorrow's prices already known?
Tomorrow's day-ahead prices for Netherlands appear on this page automatically once Nord Pool / EPEX closes the auction around 13:00 CEST each day.
