Netcongestie
Netcongestie kaart (grid congestion map of the Netherlands)
The capaciteitskaart of the Dutch grid operators gives a congestion status for offtake and feed-in to 588 supply areas and 271 substations in the Netherlands; Rare Context holds those statuses, available on request, with 771 high-voltage substations across 12 provinces.
We hold the netcongestie status for the Netherlands.Offtake and feed-in status per supply area and substation, with the grid operator: available on request.
What netcongestie means
Netcongestie (grid congestion) means the grid in an area is full: the operator cannot promise new capacity for offtake (drawing power, for a factory, a data center or a heat pump cluster) or for feed-in (supplying power, from solar, wind or a battery) until it reinforces the grid. The Dutch grid operators publish a status per area on one map, the capaciteitskaart of Netbeheer Nederland, for offtake and for feed-in apart: room available, limited room, or a waiting list.
