In 2022, renewable energy accounted for 15 percent of gross national energy consumption. This was still 13 percent in the previous year.

This report describes the development, estimation and validation of indicators for a bio-based economy. First a Bio Flow Monitor (BFM) dataset is compiled. From this dataset indicators related to...

In 2020, the consumption of energy from biomass resources such as biogas, biopetrol, the green part of household waste or wood products rose by 10 percent on the previous year, reaching a total of...

In 2020 the combustion of biomass produced 19 megatonnes of CO2, 16 percent up on the previous year.

In 2020, renewable energy accounted for 11.1 percent of total Dutch energy consumption.

Renewable energy, final use and avoided fossil energy and avoided CO2 wind, solar, hydro, geothermal energy, aerothermal heat and biomass

In 2019, renewable energy consumption in the Netherlands grew by 16 percent to 181 petajoules (PJ) relative to the previous year.

In 2018, renewable energy sources accounted for 7.4 percent of total Dutch energy consumption, up from 6.6 percent one year previously. More than half of this increase was due to higher biomass...

In 2017, renewable energy sources accounted for 6.6 percent of total Dutch energy consumption.

Consumption of wind and solar energy rose, consumption of energy from biomass sources decreased slightly

Consumption of renewable energy went up to 5.8 percent in 2015.

The Netherlands performs poorly when it comes to meeting the targets as agreed upon in the EU Directive Renewable Energy for 2020. In fact, only France does worse. The target set for the Netherlands...
