Entrepreneurs and renewable energy

Companies in The Netherlands are very interested in green energy. Large companies could switch to a different grey supplier for January 1st 1998. From January 1st 2002 medium size companies (companies with a use between 3x 80 Ampere and 2 MW) also had the change to switch over to a new grey energy supplier. From October 2003 the market for smaller companies will be free. The green energy market for households and companies is open since July 1st. 2001. This means private persons and businesses are free to choose their own green energy supplier.

Green Energy

Green energy is energy generated from renewable sources, such as wind, sun and biomass. Conventional energy is generated from fossil fuels, e.g. natural gas, coals and oil. These sources become exhausted and furthermore damage the environment.















Rising demand

In several sectors the demand for green energy is growing. More than 1,4 million consumers are supplied with green energy at this moment. Also in the business market green energy appears to be very popular. By choosing green energy for your company you are able to gain their environmental objectives.

By switching over to green energy you are not only saving the environment, but also costs. A lot of suppliers offer their green energy at a price lower than or at least equal to the price for conventional energy.
