April 1 new subsidy for flexible use of electricity (Flex-e)

Are you a large consumer and are you up against the limit of contracted power, but want to be able to continue sustainability and/or growth? On April 1, 2025, a new subsidy will become available 'Subsidy Flexible Use of Electricity (Flex-e)'.

In addition to subsidizing an energy scan and a feasibility study, this time the subsidy can also be used to support you with the investments needed for flexible electricity use. The latter unfortunately requires a congestion management contract (even before the subsidy can be applied for). This makes it unattractive or even feasible for a number of entrepreneurs because their processes do not allow it.

What is flexible use of electricity?

Flexible use of electricity means that you can adjust the use of electricity yourself. It is also possible to control appliances smartly, or by means of your own energy generation and storage to change the use of your electricity so that the electricity connection is better utilized, or the power grid is relieved. The aim of this subsidy scheme is to reduce the effects of grid congestion for companies and institutions through flexible electricity use. Moreover, being more energy conscious gives room for growth and sustainability.
