Why would EP NL consider closing its Rijnmond 1 power plant?

EP NL has started planning for the decommissioning of the Rijnmond 1 power plant on March 31, 2026. If the market situation remains as expected, this date is certain. Plans for redevelopment of the site are still in full swing. At the same time, EP NL is prepared to invest in new, flexible solutions that contribute to a sustainable and reliable electricity supply.

If more power stations such as Rijnmond 1 are decommissioned, reliability will be jeopardized. It is normally cheaper to keep power stations such as Rijnmond 1 operational for longer by investing in life extension than to build new power stations. A capacity market is very suitable for preventing the closure of existing gas-fired power stations if those stations are necessary for security of supply.

Namely: The planned closure of Rijnmond 1 is therefore not dependent on any decision to introduce a capacity market.
