Investing in the future of the Netherlands: locally produced solar energy for sustainable growth and strategic autonomy.

The Energy Transition, Our Opportunity

The world is in transition to sustainable energy and the Netherlands is ready to lead the way. By investing in innovative solar energy (PV) technologies we can not only achieve our climate goals, but also create new economic opportunities. This transition to green energy is not only a necessity, but also a unique opportunity to grow and put our country on the map as a leader in sustainable technology.

SolarNL helps to create the necessary innovative PV technologies and industrial basis in the Netherlands for decades to come.

The Netherlands as a Leader in Solar Energy

Solar energy will play a key role in the future energy supply. In the Netherlands we want to expand our capacity from 18 GWp to 100-250 GWp in 2050. That means jobs, innovation, and economic value of billions of euros, all produced here in our own country. With the SolarNL program we are building a strong PV industry that benefits the environment and makes our energy supply more independent.

IM Efficiency receives €2,651 million subsidy

Our industry partner IM Efficiency has secured a €2,651 million subsidy from Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland (RVO) for the SolarNL program. This funding will support the development of solar technologies that integrate high-efficiency solar panels directly into trailers during the production process.

SolarNL in Dutch Newspaper Financieel Dagblad

Years after Dutch solar cell manufacturers were wiped out by Chinese competitors, Dutch companies are once again attempting to secure a place in the market. Read more about the journey of SolarNL in this FD newspaper article.

Produce Locally, Lead the World

By investing in local solar energy production, we ensure short lines from production to market. This reduces our ecological footprint and strengthens our strategic autonomy. In line with European plans for new industrial strategies, we are taking a major step towards a future-proof energy supply. Together we can prepare the Netherlands for a sustainable future and economic prosperity.
