“Offshore wind is the cheapest source of electricity and it is the best way for our country to generate power”, Vos said. “So this cabinet, which is way more on the right than any cabinet we’ve had in the Netherlands, is on track for offshore wind as any other government has been before and they’re fully implementing the roadmap.”

One of the drivers for the commitment to offshore wind is also the fact the Netherlands had around 56 per cent of its electricity produced by clean sources in 2024, with renewable energy taking over fossil energy production.
