Netherlands | Workshops with cities and energy companies

December 9, 2024 December 10, 2024

Join the road show in the Netherlands the 9-10th December 2024. We will visit four of the leading district heating operators – Vattenfall, HVC, WarmteStad and SVP.

The purpose is to learn from Dutch and Danish DH experiences and create partnerships between Danish and Dutch stakeholders. The Danish team will be supported by a manager from a Danish DH company.

At each visit we will have a workshop where you will be introduced to future investments plans but also some of the challenges they are facing. Your company will be invited to present solutions to some of the challenges of the Dutch district heating companies and to be active in the workshops. The Danish case and success story of district heating will further be presented by a representative from a Danish utility.

The program is co-organized with the Danish Embassy in the Netherlands, and it looks like the following:

Monday December 9th

  • Morning: Workshop at Vattenfall (link), Amsterdam
  • Afternoon: Workshop at HVC (link), Alkmaar
  • Evening: Dinner in Groningen (own expense)

Tuesday December 10th

  • Morning: Workshop at WarmteStad (link), Griffeweg 99, Groningen
  • Afternoon: Workshop at SVP (link), Nieuwe Gouw 20, Pumerend

The district heating sector in the Netherlands is growing and new district heating regulation, expected to be approved by the Dutch parliament this fall, will speed up the development. The Netherlands expects to connect additional 500,000 new houses by 2030, which is more than the double of expected new connections in Denmark. Join the event to learn more about the growth plans of some of the leading district heating companies in the Netherlands.
