International Energy Agency β The Netherlands Energy Policy Review
Summary
The report by the International Energy Agency "The Netherlands Energy Policy Review" explores the Netherlands' rapid energy transition driven by robust climate policies.

Despite this, the country still relies heavily on fossil fuels for its energy supply. The report emphasizes the need for stronger policy frameworks to fully transition to clean energy and meet climate targets. It highlights the importance of integrating grid congestion solutions and demand-side strategies to ensure a comprehensive and coordinated energy transition.
