Factsheet - The Policy and Regulatory Landscape of the Netherlands
Reaching our decarbonisation targets requires deployment of wind energy in European seas. If we look at the Netherlands, what is the current state of offshore wind development and how do their plans include nature? You can learn the answers in RGI's new factsheet on the Netherlands, produced alongside a webinar series highlighting legal and regulatory frameworks within selected European countries related to offshore wind, grid and nature planning and permitting.

RGI and the Offshore Coalition for Energy and Nature (OCEaN) advocate for an integrated approach to planning offshore wind, grid development, and nature conservation in European seas. This is crucial to achieve a sustainable energy transition. We emphasise the simultaneous consideration of energy targets and biodiversity goals, ensuring their incorporation into spatial planning.
Due to the urgent challenges posed by the energy, climate, and biodiversity crises, it is necessary to understand the varied approaches of different EU Member States in accelerating the planning and permitting of offshore wind and grid, alongside nature protection and restoration.
To address this, OCEaN and RGI are holding a new webinar series highlighting legal and regulatory frameworks within selected Member States related to offshore wind, grid and nature planning and permitting. After each webinar, RGI will publish a factsheet on the Member State will be released to provide key insights into the topics covered by our expert speakers. The aim is to understand the interconnectedness of their wind and grid planning with nature protection as compared to frameworks in other European countries.
The first webinar and factsheet shone a spotlight on the Netherlands - check it out now to learn the current state of offshore wind development in the Dutch North Sea and how their plans include nature!
