The power grid in South Holland is under unprecedented strain. The rapid acceleration of the energy transition, marked by the widespread adoption of heat pumps, electric vehicle charging stations, and the replacement of natural gas with electricity in numerous industrial sectors, has caused infrastructure saturation.
