RTB Solar PV Valuation Trends in Netherlands

The Netherlands' solar PV market continues to show robust growth, with Ready-to-Build (RTB) project valuations reflecting strong investor appetite in the first half of 2024. Based on proprietary data from PF Nexus, the leading renewable energy asset marketplace, we present exclusive insights into the Dutch solar PV sector's valuation trends.

In H1 2024, RTB solar PV projects in the Netherlands demonstrated the following valuation ranges:

• Buy-side valuations: €85,000 - €115,000 per MWp
• Sell-side valuations: €115,000 - €150,000 per MWp

The average buy-side valuation stood at €100,000 per MWp, while the average sell-side valuation reached €130,000 per MWp. This 30% gap between buy-side and sell-side expectations indicates a competitive market with strong seller confidence.

Compared to other countries in The Benelux & Nordics region, the Netherlands shows higher valuations than Sweden: Netherlands Buy-side Average (€/MWp): 100,000 Sell-side Average (€/MWp): 130,000 Sweden Buy-side Average (€/MWp): 81,700 Sell-side Average (€/MWp): 118,300

This data suggests that the Dutch solar market is perceived as more mature and less risky than its Nordic counterpart.

Ready-to-Build (RTB) refers to solar PV projects that have secured all necessary permits and grid connections, ready for immediate construction. These projects are highly sought after by investors due to their reduced development risk and shorter time to operation.

The Netherlands' strong valuation trends can be attributed to several factors:

1. Robust government support for renewable energy

2. Well-developed grid infrastructure

3. High electricity prices in the region

4. Growing corporate demand for green power

These factors contribute to the attractiveness of Dutch solar assets for both domestic and international investors.
