This page provides a more detailed description of what energy system data is available in the API. Which parameter contains which data?
Because the data is also visualized on CO2 Monitor, Energieopwek, and the Nationaal Energie Dashboard, it is specified on which page the parameter is visible and what label it has there.
Please scroll to the right to see the extra columns if needed.
Type ID | API name | Description API name | Visualised on / data available at | Label (website) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
2 | Solar | The total solar energy generated consists of solar panels, solar meadows and solar parks (including behind the meter). In short, all forms of solar energy generation in the Netherlands. (Nationaal Energie Dashboard model) | Visualised on: energieopwek; CO2Monitor; ned.nl / Available via API or download at ned.nl | Zonne-energie |
0 | All | Total of renewable energy as seen on NetAnders (total of 1. Wind; 2. Solar; 3. Biogas; 4. Heatpump; 8. Cofiring; 9. Geothermal; 10. Other; 11. Waste; 12.Bio-oil; 13. Biomass; 14. Wood; 51. WindOffshoreC; 50. Solar Thermal). | Visualised on: energieopwek / Available via API at ned.nl |
|
3 | Biogas | All generated biogas (Model Nationaal Energie Dashboard) | Visualised on: energieopwek / available via API at ned.nl | Biogas |
1 | Wind | Wind onshore. This is renewable energy from wind turbines on land. This includes wind turbines in inland waters, such as the IJsselmeer. (Model Nationaal Energie Dashboard). | Visualised on: energieopwek; CO2Monitor; ned.nl / Available via API or download at ned.nl | Windenergie op land |
17 | WindOffshore | This is renewable energy derived from offshore wind turbines. (Model Nationaal Energy Dashboard > replaced by parameter 51. WindoffshoreC) | n/a | n/a |
4 | HeatPump | This is energy produced through heat pumps. The heat supplied by a heat pump, minus the electricity needed to extract it from the environment, counts as renewable energy under international rules. | Visualised on: energieopwek; available via API at ned.nl | Warmtepompen |
8 | Cofiring | When coal is partially replaced by biomass, that portion counts as renewable energy. (Model Nationaal Energie Dashboard) | Visualised on: energieopwek / available via API at ned.nl | Bij- en meestoken biomassa kolencentrales |
14 | Wood | This refers to renewable energy from the burning of wood by households in wood stoves, all-burners, pellet stoves and fireplaces. The amount of wood used counts as renewable energy. (Model Nationaal Energie Dashboard) | Visualised on: energieopwek / available via API at ned.nl | Houtkachels |
11 | Waste | Biomass (Biogenic) parte of waste (Model Nationaal Energie Dashboard) | Visualised on: energieopwek / available via API at ned.nl | Afvalcentrales |
13 | Biomass | Solid and liquid biomass for decentralized electricity and heat production on an industrial or semi-industrial scale (NetAnders model) | energieopwek | Biomassa bedrijven/warmtenetten |
12 | BioOil | These are liquid biofuels that, based on legal requirements, are blended with gasoline and diesel at a fixed percentage as standard. Biofuels must meet international sustainability criteria. (NetAnders model) | energieopwek | Bio olie |
9 | Geothermal | Geothermal energy (ground energy) comes from a depth of more than 500 m. It is the heat supplied by the geothermal plant minus the electricity needed to pump this heat to the surface. (NetAnders model) | energieopwek | Geothermie |
10 | Other | Charcoal and hydro power. These forms of renewable energy are very small in the Netherlands and therefore collectively form a category. (NetAnders model) | energieopwek | Overig (energieopwek) |
23 | NaturalGas | Natural gas consumption (distribution and final consumers minus natural gas consumption for electricity and feedstock; based on ENTSO-G data). | co2monitor | Aardgas (Gas) |
24 | Biomethane | Biomethane in the grid. Based on numbers certification agency. | co2monitor | Groen gas (Gas) |
18 | FossilGasPower | Natural gas used for electricity (ENTSO-E). | co2monitor | Gas (Stroom) |
19 | FossilHardCoal | Hard coal minus biomass. (based on ENTSO-E) | co2monitor | Steenkool |
1 | Wind | Wind onshore. This is renewable energy from wind turbines on land. This includes wind turbines in inland waters, such as the IJsselmeer. (NetAnders model) | co2monitor | Wind |
25 | BiomassPower | Biomass, based on numbers certification agency. | co2monitor | Biomassa |
2 | Solar | The total solar energy generated consists of solar panels, solar meadows and solar parks (including behind the meter). In short, all forms of solar energy generation in the Netherlands. (NetAnders model) | co2monitor | Zon |
22 | WindOffshoreB | This is renewable energy derived from offshore wind turbines (ENTSO-E data) | co2monitor | Zeewind |
20 | Nuclear | Nuclear energy (ENTSO-E) | co2monitor | Kernenergie |
35 | WKK Total | CHP (combined heat & power) is a technology that produces electricity and thermal energy at high efficiencies using a range of technologies and fuels. (Nationaal Energie Dashboard model) | co2monitor | WKK |
21 | WastePower | Total of waste power. ENTSO-E data supplemented with model: Entso-E data shows electricity portion of waste plants but is incomplete in a moving window of 28 days which is supplemented with a model. (based on ENTSO-E) | co2monitor | Afval |
26 | OtherPower | Electricity that is not assigned to another category (hydro run-of-river, CHP plants fed by biomass and biogas). | co2monitor | Overig (co2monitor) |
27 | ElectricityMix | The CO2 emission factor for the electricity mix as seen on CO2 Monitor. | co2monitor |
|
28 | GasMix | The CO2 emission factor for the gas mix as seen on CO2 Monitor. | co2monitor |
|
50 | SolarThermal | Solar thermal energy is production of heat by capturing solar energy through solar thermal panels. | energieopwek | Zonthermie |
