Amsterdam, 2 April 2026 — A consortium consisting of EnecoEneco is an international energy company committed to accelerating the energy transition. Their One Planet Plan forms the basis for their ambition to become climate-neutral, in terms of both our own and our customers’ energy consumption. To this end, they focus on three actions: decarbonize their customers, generate more sustainable energy, and balance and optimize the energy system. They invest in sustainable means of production, energy storage possibilities, and smart energy solutions for consumers and businesses. Together they work on everyone’s sustainable energy., Port of AmsterdamThe Port of Amsterdam manages and develops one of Europe’s largest seaports, creating sustainable connections for a society in transition. By providing the infrastructure and facilities needed for a future-proof port, it supports a sustainable logistics hub and fosters collaboration among businesses, innovators, and public authorities., Shared Energy PlatformShared Energy Platform enables companies to supply renewable electricity directly to one another, helping them save costs, avoid grid congestion, and make better use of existing infrastructure., and WiththegridIf you don’t know us: Withthegrid’s mission is to deliver technology that enables a connected, secure, and resilient energy ecosystem. We do it via the Teleport Gateway, a local controller that securely connects renewable energy assets to the cloud, unlocking real-time remote control and local optimization for asset owners and traders. has successfully piloted the retrofit of nine legacy wind turbines in the Port of Amsterdam into curtailable assets. This project contributes to resolving grid imbalance issues, reduces financial losses, and lowers the wind farm’s electricity costs while giving all partners access to flexibility.

The Eneco wind farm was designed in 2008 without the capability to integrate directly with trading and flexibility platforms. As a result, they were unable to be curtailed during moments of imbalance or congestion on the grid. The goal of the consortium was to enable the wind farm to be more flexible.

Gem Beemsterboer, Director of Participations, Port of Amsterdam:

Flexibility in our wind assets lowers costs and supports our sustainability goals, while reinforcing the port as an attractive hub for investment. The Port of Amsterdam is evolving into a smart energy hub, and this project shows how collaboration enables us to use existing assets in a smarter and more efficient way.

The Teleport Gateway now acts as a secure bridge between these legacy turbine controls and modern remote systems. By respecting the original safety envelopes and latency requirements, the Teleport makes these turbines steerable and ensures they remain compliant with cybersecurity standards.

Instead of keeping assets running regardless of market conditions, the turbines can be downrated when prices drop or the grid becomes congested to avoid imbalance costs. This real-time responsiveness ensures the site remains profitable and compliant, keeping turbines ready to generate power the moment market capacity or prices improve.

Shared Energy Platform, which manages the supply of the wind farm’s energy to other companies and the grid, is now able to remotely adjust the output based on real-time grid needs. This means production is matched to current electricity demand, system imbalance, and congestion price signals.

This work at the Port of Amsterdam is a step forward for the energy transition: rather than decommissioning the legacy turbines, the same method can be applied elsewhere to make renewable assets controllable. The collaboration demonstrates how industry, grid, and energy parties can extend asset lifetimes and unlock flexibility across the system.
