How we work together

Working together on solutions for energy transition

Only by joining forces can we achieve a carbon-free energy system.

Why collaborate

Every day we strive for the best results, with the conviction that we cannot do this alone. Our innovation is strengthened by the diverse contributions of partners in various collaborations. By combining the knowledge and expertise of different parties, together we create the best solutions that help accelerate the energy transition.

Do you see opportunities for collaboration? Then we would like to invite you to contact us to discuss the possibilities.

With whom we do this

Network Companies

By building strong relationships with network companies, we can share knowledge, align our vision for local markets and cooperate in this domain. In this way, we develop future market services and standards.

Consortia

Participate in consortia for research projects to work with partners toward a future-proof energy system.

Ecosystem partners

Forecasting, back-office, billing (as in whitepaper tools) Our plug-in play platform allows you as an ecosystem partner to link with the ENTRNCE platform to offer your services.

Educational institutions

Together with universities, we conduct research on current issues around local energy systems, energy hubs and peer-to-peer trading.

Local4Local

Local energy at cost price+

The Local4Local project is an initiative of Dutch energy cooperatives to achieve an integrated, sustainable, collective energy supply in which the end user pays no more than cost+ for energy, with minimized impact on the local energy infrastructure. An important role in this is played by the cooperative suppliers OM Nieuwe Energie, Energie VanOns and AGEM to enable these peer-to-peer exchanges of energy at cost+ price for the cooperatives and their members.

ENTRNCE is part of the Local4Local consortium and, as a facilitator of the cost price+ model, contributes directly to this important social development. Through the ENTRNCE platform, energy communities can trade their residual volumes of cooperatively generated electricity at cost with other energy communities.

Key points:

Sustainable, local energy supply
Cost+ model for energy exchange
Flexible peer-to-peer exchange

A smart solution to grid congestion

Within the Mooi EIGEN project, ENTRNCE, together with Firan and Shared Energy Platform (SEP), is developing the Energy Hub Platform. This platform enables energy hubs at business parks to monitor and control their assets to meet the terms of a Group Transmission Agreement or a collective Capacity Limiting Contract. The platform can also receive bids from assets for capacity reduction and distribute any (GOPACS) fees to assets. In doing so, ENTRNCE and the project partners are providing a platform that can directly address current congestion issues.

Key points:

Creating and ensuring a program plan
Receiving and acting on GOPACS signals.
Managing assets

Contributing to the global rollout of peer-to-peer trading

The Global Observatory on Peer-to-Peer, Collective Self-Consumption and Transactive Energy ('GO-P2P') consortium is a global network of companies, universities, and other research institutions active in the world of P2P. The goal of this consortium is to share data, experiences with P2P, and suggestions with each other by holding meetings several times a year. ENTRNCE thus seeks to contribute to the global rollout of P2P and learn lessons from others who have encountered barriers that we still expect in the Netherlands.

Key points:

Data sharing
Spreading the lessons of P2P
Learning from other P2P projects
Sharing data
Distributing lessons from P2P

"Through GO-P2P, we try to share our lessons of P2P and at the same time learn from other projects so that we advance in the Netherlands and P2P worldwide."

What is the Energy Hub Platform?

Entrepreneurs at business parks face a major challenge: the overcrowded power grid is making sustainability and growth increasingly difficult. How do you still ensure a future-proof energy network? Energy Hubs offer a solution. The Energy Hub Platform, developed within the EIGEN project, plays an indispensable role in this. Read how this innovative system works and what it can do for your business park.

A future-proof energy grid: ENTRNCE's part in Alliander's strategy

By 2050, our country must run entirely on renewable energy. To achieve this, our society is electrifying, digitizing and making our energy more sustainable at a rapid pace. These developments are also putting rapidly increasing pressure on our infrastructure, requiring major adjustments to our energy networks. So fast, in fact, that in more and more places, the limits of what the grid can handle are already in sight. It is up to network companies to quickly make our energy network ready for the future. Alliander takes this task very seriously and has developed a clear strategy to facilitate the energy transition as well and as quickly as possible.
