Table explanation


This table shows figures on the supply of electricity and natural gas through the public grid to companies including the supply to industrial grids. In-house electricity production for private use only is not included in these figures.
Figures are broken down by sector of industry and region.

The figures are based on data provided by the operators of the public electricity and natural gas grids in the Netherlands. All Dutch grid operators have provided relevant data.

In consultation with stakeholders, the sector of industry ‘Electricity and gas supply’ (SIC code D) is fully protected for natural gas in 2015 and 2016 to prevent disproportional information loss due to the otherwise unavoidable protection of other sectors. Note that SIC D is also not taken into account in the total figures (A-U All economic activities) for natural gas in these years.
For the same reason, SIC D for electricity is fully protected in 2015 and 2016. Note: in 2015 SIC D is not, but in 2016 it is, taken into account in the total figures.

Data available from:
2010.

Status of the figures:
The status of the figures from 2010 to 2023 is definite. The status of the figures over 2024 is provisional.

Changes as of October 2025:
Definite figures over 2023 and provisional figures over 2024 have been added.

Changes as of October 2024:
Definite figures over 2022 and provisional figures over 2023 have been added.

When will new figures be published?
Definite figures over 2023 and provisional figures over 2024 will be published in the 3th quarter of 2025.

Description topics

Natural gas, delivered
Delivered natural gas via the public grid.

The grid of national natural gas distribution company Gas Transport Services (GTS), the grid of Zebragas and the regional distribution companies of natural gas.

Natural gas is gaseous fuel of natural origin mainly consisting of methane. This results from the same process that leads to the formation of crude oil. Natural gas is liquefied for transport over long distances by ship.
Electricity. delivered
Delivered electricity via the public grid.

The grid of national electricity distribution company TenneT and the regional distribution companies of electricity.

Electricity is a flow of electrons used to light lamps or to operate washing machines. Electrons are elementary particles in an atom with a negative charge that flow by a potential difference.
