The Dutch energy context• The Netherlands is still largely dependent on fossil fuels. It has the largest
gas share in the fuel mix of IEA countries, major coal and oil ports and many refineries. Natural gas production has been largely constant for 30
years, but will decrease in the next decades• The share of renewable energy in the Netherlands in final demand did rise
from 2.3% in 2005 to 4.5% in 2013, still far from the targets of 14% in 2020 and 16% in 2023.
• The Netherlands have a significant installed wind power capacity• The Netherlands is densely populated and has modest available area for
implementation of renewable energy• Energy intensive industries & refineries make up 12,4% of GDP

Beleidskader voor de energiehuishouding
• Clean- Air emissions , incl. CO2
- Waste products • Secure
- Geopolital dependance- Security of supply
• Affordable- Competititive positon- Genera ion of economic activity

Policy framework in the Netherlands
10
Main principles of Dutch energy policy• Securing energy supply through less dependency on fossil fuels and
gradual change to renewable sources • A balanced mix of energy sources• In the longer term: a sustainable energy supply• Framed in the European Energy policy context• Energy Agreement • 14% RES in 2020 and 16% in 2023• 1,5% savings/year in final energy savings per year• 15.000 Full time jobs• In 2030 a top-10 position in mondiale Clean Tech Ranking
• EU 2030: 40% reduction CO2 and 27% RES (for EU in total)• CO2 emission reduction in 2050 : 80 - 95%
11
Dutch energy policy targets• Renewable energy target 2020: 14 % (currently 4.5 %)• 20 % more energy savings (industry, buildings)• Very much in line with European Energy policy (RES Directive, Energy
Efficiency Directive)

The multiple benefits of Energy Efficiency/Energy savings
14Source : IEA
Energy Efficiency, the silent fuel
Why savings: also important in the long run

IEA 2008
36 % realized by efficient supply and savings in end-use

Barriers in NL
•Densely populated•Small area •Netherlands is ‘Gas’ country, providing > 10
bio€/yr. to Finance ministry
• Uncertainty in energy policy framework

18
Best practice Netherlands
• Involve relevant stakeholders to get commitment• Inititate national program covering whole value chain from
R&D to implementation• Call for long-term vision and consistency in policy • Ensure stable energy policy framework
19
What happened in 2013• Stagnation in Dutch energy transition policy• Call for more long-term vision and consistency in policy• 8-month negotiation process within the Socio-Economic Council, between
– Employers’ federations– Trade unions– Government representatives– Environmental NGO’s– In total, 45 stakeholder groups
• ECN, PBL, EIB for:– Independent impact assessment– Substantive support to the negotiations
20
What is the Energy Agreement ?
21
10 pillars of focus :
Anchoring committee• Dashboard launched• Newsletter• Progress reports/monitoring per year
22
Key ambitions:• Additional energy efficiency improvement: 100 PJ by 2020
– Large part still not instrumented
• Renewables: 14% by 2020, 16% by 2023 – Today: ~4%
• 15.000 net additional jobs in the short term
• And:– Improve Cleantech position NL– Improve competitieve position of industry– Create new investments– Reduce financial burden for citizens and companies– Create opportunities for bottom-up initiatives 23
Conlusions
• The Netherlands lags behind in Europe in targets renewable energy
• But initiated a large integrated program (Energy Agreement) to catch up
