Nederland Opgewekt B.v.

What Nederland Opgewekt B.v. does

Nederland Opgewekt B.v. is a Dutch renewable energy consultancy and project developer founded in 2017 and headquartered in Doorn, Netherlands. The company advises and develops integrated renewable energy projects—principally its "Klimaatpark" (Climate Park) concept—which combine utility-scale solar generation with biodiversity, water retention, food forests, community gardens, and recreational space on a single land parcel. Its offerings span strategic advisory, project origination and development, financing arrangement (including crowdfunding and regional development finance), and ongoing park and asset management intended to operate over a 20-25 year asset life. Domain capabilities highlighted include grid congestion management, water buffering design, and a structured three-meeting community engagement methodology intended to secure social license before municipal permitting.

The company serves five primary customer segments: agricultural landowners (who lease land for guaranteed rental income without capital outlay), energy cooperatives (community-owned Klimaatpark projects), small and mid-sized businesses that pool rooftop space, municipalities and housing associations with sustainability mandates and unused land, and nature or environmental organizations that benefit from ecological co-benefits. Notable reference projects include Someren-Lungendonk (operational spring 2021, ~2,000 households powered, developed with housing association Bergopwaarts), Heerenveen (5,600 rooftop panels on Bakker Transport & Warehousing, ~500 households), Helmond De Peel (4,000 panels across multiple business rooftops), Someren-Kerkendijk (climate park with water storage and agricultural co-use), Someren-Heikantstraat (3 hectares solar plus 1.8 hectares of new nature, ~700 households), and a Klimaatboerderij at Oostwold Groningen in partnership with Terra MBO.

Revenue is generated through three streams: project development and co-ownership (long-duration lease and energy yield income from operating solar parks), advisory and consultancy fees for feasibility, legal structuring, financing arrangement, and community engagement, and managed services for ongoing park administration, curtailment optimization, corporate PPA structuring, and refinancing. The company operates with a deliberately small core team of one to ten professionals supplemented by an external network of legal, financial, technical, and ecological partners. Project financing has been sourced through retail crowdfunding of Dutch citizens and the Brabantse Ontwikkelingsmaatschappij (BOM) regional development fund; the company itself has not disclosed institutional venture or private equity investment.
