Energy hub

Can we make more growth possible together, despite congestion? From individual analysis to a working hub on your business park.

Three steps  ·  quickscan 6 to 8 weeks  ·  draft agreement 8 to 12 weeks  ·  realisation 6 to 12 months
What it is

On more and more business parks a full grid blocks growth and decarbonisation. We do not start with the collective but with each company separately: what is possible behind your own meter? We build those individual pictures up into a collective.

Who it's for

Municipalities and provinces seeing companies leave and their business climate under pressure. Park managers and cooperatives who want to help their members but lack the expertise. And the companies on the site themselves.

What you get

A report per site with a founded go/no-go, then an analysis per participating company, a collective energy plan and a draft group transport agreement ready for the grid operator. If a hub is not the best route, we say so.

Why with us

The order from individual to collective is not unique, but the depth per company is: we know exactly what is possible behind each meter before we talk about a collective. And we only advise a hub when the societal business case is positive. On the Hazeldonk site in Breda we are completing that first phase with six companies, commissioned by the municipality.

The approach

From quickscan to energy hub.

Two tracks running side by side: individual insight per company, and the collective route to a working hub. The individual track produces the evidence the collective track leans on.
