Description
Introduction:
The Dutch Renewable Electricity Production Dataset is a comprehensive collection of information on the production of renewable electricity in the Netherlands. It offers valuable insights into the renewable energy landscape, energy source distribution, installed capacity, and electricity production trends over the years. This dataset can be utilized by researchers, policymakers, analysts, and businesses to gain a deep understanding of the renewable energy sector's growth, sustainability, and contribution to the overall electricity supply. Whether you are an environmental enthusiast, a policy-maker shaping the energy transition, or a business looking to invest in the renewable energy market, this dataset will provide you with the data necessary for informed decision-making and strategic planning.
Scope and Value:
The dataset covers the period from 1990 to the latest available year (2022) and includes both historical and the most recent data. It provides extensive information on various aspects of renewable electricity production, including energy source techniques, gross and net electricity production figures, installation statistics, and electrical capacity. Moreover, the dataset offers normalized production values to correct for weather conditions and indirect production from green gas, giving a more accurate representation of renewable electricity generation. This normalization allows for fair comparisons and trend analysis.
