Renewable energy subsidies
The Netherlands is working towards a fully sustainable future by 2050, as set out in the Climate Accord and the European Green Deal. However, there is still a lot of work to be done. Examples include making business premises more sustainable, switching to emission-free vehicles and work equipment, using renewable energy through generation, storage and charging, or using raw materials more efficiently. Many of these initiatives involve additional costs. Fortunately, there are several grants available to support you in making your operations more sustainable and energy efficient.
