Grid capacity around this site
Two grids decide whether this site can connect. A connection up to roughly 10 MVA (most farms, solar fields, batteries and businesses) is made at medium voltage by the regional grid operator, so the regional status at the site's postcode binds it, whatever TenneT's station shows. A larger connection, at 110 kV or more, is made by TenneT, and the status of the TenneT station it connects to binds it.
Netbeheer Nederland capaciteitskaart gives each regional supply area, postcode and TenneT station a congestion status for offtake (drawing power) and feed-in (supplying power). We hold it for 26 grid areas and 23 substations in Limburg. Both statuses for this site, the regional operator's waiting list and the year it expects the congestion solved: available on request.
Is there capacity here?The regional operator's and TenneT's offtake and feed-in status for this site: available on request.
