Network platform for energy storage

Energy Storage NL is the connector, matchmaker and promoter of Dutch companies and organizations that develop, produce and apply innovative energy storage and conversion technologies. From thermal storage to batteries, from flywheels to ammonia storage and from hydrogen to green gas; all forms of storage are represented.

Goals and activities

Energy Storage NL is the broadest network for all types of energy storage from large-scale to small-scale storage.

Working Group Meetings

At the core of our network are the working group meetings. Each working group meets four times a year, giving us a total of 12 working group meetings per year. These sessions focus on the exchange of knowledge and practical experience around the main strategic themes of financing, locations and laws and regulations. Through a combination of digital and physical meetings - including one physical meeting on location at a member company each year - we encourage both substantive depth and mutual connection between members.

Member meetings

In addition, we hold general membership meetings twice a year. Here we feedback progress on our efforts within funding, venues and laws and regulations, and discuss the association's strategic direction. Inspiring guest speakers offer new perspectives on market and system developments, after which there is room for informal meetings during a networking reception. In this way, we strengthen not only substantive cohesion, but also mutual relationships within the network.

Commercial events

Externally, Energy Storage NL also plays a connecting role through three annual commercial events:

  • Energy Storage and Distribution Congress,
  • Energy Storage Day,
  • The Energy Storage Event.

This do we by

Bringing together

Regularly bring together a high quality network of manufacturers, project developers, research institutions, (energy) companies, financial institutions and grid operators in the field of energy storage and conversion during various (online) meetings, member meetings, trade shows and other events, nationally and internationally. We are present at exhibitions such as Solar Solutions and at the Energy Trade Fair with a large pavilion.

Facilitate, organize and promote

Facilitate working and project groups in which participants engage with each other, organize substantive webinars in which a stage is provided for participants, and map and actively promote participants' knowledge, products and services, for example through the project map. We organize the Energy Storage Day, The Energy Storage Event, inspiration meetings at our participants and other networking events. Besides the fact that our participants can meet physically here, we have also created a closed LinkedIn group with now more than 100 members where we post interesting messages, announce closed events, create questions/polls and our participants can also ask questions among themselves.

Partnerships Maintained

Maintain national and international partnerships, including through regular contact with key stakeholders and our membership in the Energy Storage Europe Association (formerly EASE). We have good contacts in political The Hague which we maintain and have organized a networking meeting for our participants to get a glimpse into the kitchen of political The Hague.
