Omexom; Sustainable Construction at Rozenburg-Zuid High-Voltage Station with DENS Powerhub
Published on Monday 23 June 2025 by DENS
Mobile Battery System Tackles Grid Congestion on Off-Grid Construction Site
In Rozenburg-Zuid, Omexom Netherlands and BAM Infra are delivering a new high-voltage GIS substation for TenneT. This upgrade is crucial: the Haarlemmermeer grid is stretched thin by rapid housing growth, expanding businesses, and the surge in sustainable installations like heat pumps and EV chargers. At the same time, the construction site itself sets a benchmark in sustainable building, operating entirely off-grid with solar power and a DENS Powerhub.
“Step by step, we reduce our ecological footprint,” says Gerrit Noorlander, Senior Project Manager at Omexom. “The combination of solar energy and battery storage makes our construction site more efficient, cleaner and flexible.”
What Is Grid Congestion—and How the DENS Powerhub Helps
Grid congestion occurs when electricity demand or supply overwhelms the existing network capacity. To support the energy transition, Omexom is expanding the grid under TenneT’s commission. At Rozenburg-Zuid, the new high-voltage station will deliver extra capacity to Haarlemmermeer. Meanwhile, Omexom has designed the temporary logistics park to be as sustainable as possible by deploying a mobile DENS Powerhub for intelligent energy storage.
Self-Sufficient Site with Solar Energy and Battery Storage
The Rozenburg-Zuid logistics park is fully self-sufficient: mobile workshops and insulated containers sport 55 solar panels that generate clean power for lighting, tool charging, and replenishing portable batteries.
“This setup makes our workspace cleaner, more flexible and more pleasant,” explains Gerrit Noorlander.
With a storage capacity of 290 kWh, the DENS Powerhub reliably supplies clean energy across the site. It also addresses grid congestion by temporarily boosting the local connection’s capacity and covering peak loads. “We’re no longer dependent on a fixed grid hookup. That makes our site flexibly deployable,” adds Noorlander.
Omexom ensures all energy is generated and stored on-site. The Powerhub’s smart control seamlessly switches between solar generation, battery storage and the grid, keeping grid draw to a minimum.
Intelligent Energy Management for Maximum Efficiency
Thanks to advanced software that integrates with the solar array, energy distribution is optimized in real time. “The Powerhub automatically balances solar input, stored power and grid draw to keep our grid consumption as low as possible. This frees up extra capacity and lets us electrify even more processes,” says Noorlander.
By combining cutting-edge technology with engineering expertise, Omexom contributes to a smarter, future-proof electricity network—a concrete step toward sustainable construction and resilient grid infrastructure.
Omexom: A Key Player in the Energy Transition
Omexom, part of VINCI Energies, is an international specialist in electricity generation, conversion and distribution. In the Netherlands, Omexom delivers high-voltage infrastructure, energy storage and sustainable projects in collaboration with grid operators and large consumers.
The compact, architecturally integrated GIS substation at Rozenburg-Zuid is due for completion in 2026. Meanwhile, Omexom and DENS continue to green the construction site itself.
DENS Powerhub: Flexible Energy Storage for Construction and Infrastructure
Deploying the DENS Powerhub on temporary sites offers an immediate solution to grid congestion. The mobile battery system:
- Delivers clean power where there’s no grid connection
- Temporarily increases local grid capacity
- Integrates smartly with solar installations
- Enables emission-free construction
