The energy transition is crucial in order to bring our CO₂ emissions to zero. Groningen must switch to clean, affordable, and sustainable energy. This means investing in heat networks, solar and wind energy, and reinforcing the electricity grid so we can continue to connect new homes and businesses. In this way, we are building a future-proof and energy-independent Groningen.

Energy transition
We are working towards a CO₂-neutral Groningen by 2035. We will achieve this by continuing to invest in our municipal heat company and other sustainable sources such as solar and wind energy.
We are addressing grid congestion by closely collaborating with the grid operator and ensuring that space on the electricity grid is made available more quickly. Additionally, we support businesses with free assistance in energy saving, for example, through 'Groningen Stroomt Door'.
We promote energy storage to reduce peaks in demand with neighborhood batteries, hydrogen storage, and smart ways to spread energy consumption.
We are working to reduce the procurement of electricity from outside the municipality as quickly as possible to become as energy-independent as possible.
