Deloitte’s Energy

Transition Monitor

Energy transition at

a crossroads

A Deloitte Netherlands publication

September 2023

Deloitte's Energy Transition Monitor

The energy transition is arguably the most challenging undertaking of this generation. The Netherlands has made good progress, so far, but

the country has come to a crossroads. Most of its progress has come from picking the low-hanging fruit, and reducing industrial output, but

to achieve the emission goals for 2030 and beyond, fundamental choices need to be made around the structure of the Dutch economy and

the energy system that enables it. The Netherlands has excellent oshore wind potential, a long-established industrial sector, and a leading

educational system, so the country is well-placed to create a global blueprint for a successful energy transition.

A successful energy transition depends on the right decisions being made, which require the right information. This Energy Transition

Monitor therefore provides a common fact-base, with which to assess the transition’s progress. However, true progress requires more than

just reducing emissions (because have we really been successful if we relocate emissions to other countries?). This report therefore provides

a holistic perspective, and brings together statistical data, stakeholder perspectives (NGOs, journalists, industry professionals, academics

and government ocials) and an analysis of public sentiment.

Using these sources, this report examines the transition’s progress from 1990 to 2022, toward the country’s statutory (Klimaatakkoord)

targets for 2030 and overall goal of net-zero emissions by 2050. Some key highlights:

01. The industry sector has reduced its emissions the most, but through lower production output and by reducing non-CO2 greenhouse

gases, so the real transition still needs to start.

02. National energy-related emissions have reduced by 32% in 2022 (relative to 1990). However, this ignores emissions from international

aviation and shipping, and imported products, which together exceed the reported national emissions.

03. 15% of energy consumed in the Netherlands comes from renewables – mainly biomass, but with strong growth in wind and solar sources

for generating clean electricity.

04. Electrication oers the greatest potential for increasing the use of renewables, but progress has been limited. For instance, electric

vehicles represented only 1.5% of the mobility sector’s energy consumption.

05. One in three households on average now uses at least one clean energy technology (solar panels, EVs or heat pumps), and the adoption

rate is growing fast.

06. Although public sentiment is mixed, the Dutch energy transition has achieved some notable successes, such as the EU’s highest

adoption of solar panels and per capita provision of EV charging stations, and 40% of the country’s electricity now being generated from

renewables.

The current rate of progress is too slow to meet the Dutch 2030 targets, so the energy transition must accelerate, and tough decisions lay

ahead. To help make a successful transition, the following approaches to the transition are proposed.

01. Develop the path together

Combine private and public interests, to benet Dutch society and economy, as well as the global climate. In particular,

industrial emissions should be considered alongside domestic production, possibly including a target for manufacturing output.

02. Take full responsibility

The eect on greenhouse gas emissions from international aviation and shipping and imported goods should be taken into account

when designing and evaluating emission-reduction policies and incentives.

03. Take the public along

Public support can be harnessed by celebrating the transition’s successes, and by using public policy to set new behavioral norms, rather

than focusing purely on nancial incentives.

04. Decarbonize molecular energy demand

Although electrication should remain the main focus, the remaining demand for molecular sources should be decarbonized more

actively, by promoting the use of clean hydrogen and making optimal use of the limited biomass resources.

05. Prioritize impact in scaling

Incentives have proved an eective way to promote the household take-up of some clean energy technologies, and should now focus on

initiatives where the Dutch government is leading and where the greatest impact on emissions can be achieved. For instance changing

domestic heating from gas to new renewable technologies, which will create the demand, momentum and condence for the private

sector to scale up production.

The Energy Transition Monitor provides an overview of the status of the energy transition and proposes bold ideas to accelerate it further

and creates a starting point for discussion, allowing professionals in the eld to work together and make the right decisions for future

progress.
