In 2006, a group of greenhouse horticulture companies faced an urgent need for gas and electricity infrastructure. When the regional distribution system operator (DSO) showed little interest in meeting that need, the companies took matters into their own hands by establishing a private energy company. Over time, the company’s focus broadened to include not just energy but also water services.   
 

At our March event, Robert Kielstra, CEO of ECW Energy and Alexander van Noort, General Manager of Ennatuurlijk Aardwarmte presented how an integrated energy system was developed in North-Holland to offer flexibility to users and producers. 

Their presentations sparked great interest and discussions on how this model could inspire similar initiatives to integrate energy systems in other regions. The ERC Steering Board is therefore very grateful that ECW Energy and Ennatuurlijk Aardwarmte are willing to give us an inside look during a site visit to their facilities.
