Description
The winning of energy from renewable energy sources increased strongly in the period 1988-1998, in particular for wind energy (12x), heat recovery by means of solar collectors (4x) and heat recovery by means of heat pumps (5x). However, the contribution of those sources to the total energy supply is low. The most important source (wind power) contributed in 1998 only 0.7% of the total production of electricity. Energy from wastes about doubled in the period 1988-1998, which resulted in 1998 in a saving of 1,200 million m3 of natural gas (1.3% of the total energy consumption in the Netherlands). 5 refs
