Project 2: Westerlee substationThe Westerlee substation forms part of the wide-ranging Randstad 380 kV project. The aim of this project is to ensure security of supply in the long term. Westerlee plays an important role in transmitting the electricity generated by horticultural businesses via the transmission grid. Because horticultural businesses are installing large numbers of CHPs, there is a regular energy surplus in the Westland region. At present we are still transmitting this surplus capacity to The Hague region via the 150 kV grid, but in the future the Westland region will also be linked to the 380 kV grid. For the Westerlee substation, 2008 was taken up entirely by engineering activities and permit procedures. We started the construction work at the end of the year. The substation will be commissioned at the end of 2009.
