New Energy
When you choose The Hague as your business location, you get all the advantages of a unique delta region in the western part of the Netherlands and also strategically located as a gateway to Europe. Acting as a testing ground for global challenges, innovation, and the energy transition, this region is committed to coming up with purposeful contributions to the problems the earth faces. We are focused on sharing pragmatic solutions, knowledge, and services through international collaboration.
The Hague is an international hub for worldwide activities, with energy as one of its core areas. This is thanks to its proximity to national government agencies, information and research institutes, trade associations, hubs, service providers, as well as the port of Rotterdam. The region of The Hague is paving the way for sustainable energy, taking meaningful steps in Europe towards a new energy system, as well as the transition readiness of the cities to become zero-carbon areas.
New Energy covers upstream activities, such as power and heat generating industries like (offshore) wind, solar, marine, and geothermal energy. However, there is more to it than that. It also relates to all sustainable solutions and sub-sectors that (indirectly) lead to a lower carbon footprint. Think of the use of green hydrogen, energy storage, electrification, carbon storage, digitalization, and much more. The Hague offers a strong and supportive industry landscape for companies to flourish.
