Energy Policies of IEA Countries The Netherlands -- 2008 Review

Pages : 152

The energy policies of the Netherlands play an important role in ensuring energy security not only on a national level but in all of north-west Europe. The countrys strategic location makes it an important transit and trade hub for natural gas, oil and electricity. Furthermore, it has important natural gas production and a large oil refining industry. To enhance continental energy security, the government takes a leadership role in natural gas and electricity market development, pushing forward important policies to better integrate and harmonise the existing national and regional markets. One of the worlds leaders in energy research and development (R&D) management, the Netherlands is further increasing its R&D on energy technologies.

With sound policies already in place, the Netherlands has recently announced its intention to create an even more sustainable energy future. As part of this pledge, the government has set ambitious targets: to increase the share of renewables in the energy mix to 20% by 2020; to make a 2% annual efficiency improvement; and to lower greenhouse gas emissions by 30% by 2020 from the 1990 level. These objectives will not be easy to achieve. To ensure their attainment, the Netherlands will need not only well-designed policies but also their timely and effective implementation.

This review analyses the energy challenges facing the Netherlands and provides critiques and recommendations for further policy improvements. For example, it urges the government to provide policy continuity such as in promotion regimes for renewable energy to underpin a sustainable investment climate. It also highlights the need for closer co-ordination among national, regional and local authorities.
