This table shows the production of electricity in the Netherlands from the various possible energy sources. Electricity is mainly produced from conversion of fossil fuels, biomass, nuclear energy and renewable energy. Figures are given per energy carrier on the production of electricity and the heat generated by it which is usefully used, such as for heating buildings or greenhouses. A distinction is made between central and decentralised production of electricity and heat. The centrally produced electricity and heat is produced by the power plants connected to TenneT’s national high-voltage grid. Decentralised electricity is produced by other installations. For example, these are drawn up in companies whose main purpose is not to produce electricity or heat (e.g. greenhouse horticulture companies). Wind, solar and hydropower are also covered by other installations.
