The electricity grid in the Netherlands is under pressure. This creates major challenges for new housing developments: projects are delayed, choices around energy systems become more complex, and collaboration between stakeholders is more important than ever.

During this session, we will focus on “EHBO” (first aid) for grid-aware new construction. What can you already do in the early stages of a project to prevent grid congestion from becoming a blocking factor? And which practical solutions are available today?

What to expect

In this meeting, we will explore concrete tools and approaches that help make new housing developments more grid-aware. Topics include:

• smart energy concepts for new residential areas
• collaboration between municipalities, developers, grid operators and market parties
• practical examples and lessons learned from ongoing projects
• insights you can immediately apply in your own work

The session is interactive and aimed at sharing knowledge, experiences and practical solutions.

Who is it for?

This event is intended for professionals involved in new housing development and area development, such as:

• municipalities and policy advisors
• property developers and housing corporations
• builders, installers and consultants
• grid operators and energy professionals

Goal of the session

Participants will gain practical insights and actionable perspectives to anticipate grid congestion and contribute to future-proof residential areas.
