From Friday 4 April through Thursday 15 May, the public was invited to respond to the initial plans for Hydrogen Network Western Netherlands as published in the Intention and Proposal for Participation. A total of 51 official responses were received and addressed. The responses and our replies can be found in the published consultation response document on the productpage of RVO (in Dutch).

Next step: Draft Scope and Detail Memorandum

Work is continuing on the Draft Scope and Detail Memorandum (draft NRD). This is a research plan in which we describe the possible routes that are still being considered and the effects we are investigating in relation to these routes. 

  • Scope refers to what needs to be investigated.
  • Detail refers to how deep the investigation should go.

Where possible, we will incorporate the comments, ideas and suggestions we received into this plan. We expect to publish the Draft Scope and Detail Memorandum in early 2026.

Consultation response document available now

It is often the case with projects that the consultation response document is completed at the same time as the Draft Scope and Detail Memorandum is available for inspection. In the case of the Hydrogen Network Western Netherlands project, the consultation response document was completed first and is now available for review.
