Nuon en Essent zetten onvoldoende stappen richting een duurzame elektriciteitsvoorziening. Dong lijkt de overstap naar schoon wel te willen maken en heeft plannen voor nieuwe kolencentrales afgeblazen. Dit zijn de belangrijkste conclusies uit het onderzoek Sustainability in the Dutch Powersector, uitgevoerd door onderzoeksbureau SOMO, in opdracht van Greenpeace.

Omschrijving: This 2010 series of power company and thematic fact sheets aims to raise public awareness
about sustainability issues in the electricity sector and to improve the sustainability of power
companies operating in the Netherlands. The fact sheet series investigates the companies’
performance on incorporating renewable energy sources into their fuel mix for both
generation and supply of electricity, and on their investments and future plans with respect to
energy sources at both the Dutch and European level. The 2010 fact sheet series is the
annual update that is going into its fourth year, and builds on the work from previous years
(available at www.somo.nl), but includes a slightly different range of companies due to a
number of recent and pending mergers and acquisitions among power companies with
operations in the Netherlands.
