Unlock More Grid Capacity with Distro Energy as Your CSP!
Grid congestion is an increasing challenge for businesses looking to expand and become more sustainable. To tackle this, more and more companies in the Netherlands are joining forces in Energy Hubs. By working together strategically, they optimize their energy consumption and create additional space on the grid. Group contracts, set up in collaboration with the grid operator, make this possible—but a certified Congestion Service Provider (CSP) is required to manage flexibility within the hub.
As a certified CSP, Distro Energy supports Energy Hubs by:
✅
Representing the collective to the grid operator as the main contact for capacity-related requests.
✅
Managing flexibility assets to respond to grid operator signals.
✅
Ensuring fair distribution of costs and benefits within the group.
✅
Maximizing asset returns by optimizing their use on electricity markets.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to find my own community in order to trade peer-to-peer?
You have access to the Distro community through our marketplace. By joining our marketplace, you join the community as a whole and are ready to start peer-to-peer energy trading!
Does joining Distro terminate my energy contract or does it exist next to it?
Joining Distro is an addition to the contract you currently have. When you join our platform, we notify your current supplier to transition your contract to one that integrates with our platform. Alternatively, you can personally contact your supplier to make this change if you prefer.
How much cost can I save with Distro?
Typically, you save between 10 and 20% on your power consumption costs, compared to average market prices. In order to get a better estimate, don’t hesitate to get in a touch.
Does Distro only provide power from renewable sources?
Through the Distro platform, you buy renewable energy from local producers. Any demand that is not met is supplied by our partners in the form of green energy. This green energy comes with a 'Garantie van Oorsprong' (Guarantee of Origin system), which provides a guarantee that the energy comes from renewable sources.
Do I need solar or a battery myself to start with Distro?
You do not need solar or a battery to join the Distro marketplace. Even if you are 'just' a consumer, you can reap the benefits of our community's renewable energy production!
Can I join the marketplace as a household?
At this moment, we're focused on delivering value to businesses only.
Is energy trading risky?
Trading energy through Distro is no riskier than having a dynamic energy contract. In general, you will benefit from more competitive prices than offered through dynamic contracts due to our forecasting and trading models. We partner with established power suppliers to handle surplus demand or supply at dynamic pricing levels.
Do I need to have trading knowledge?
You do not! Distro provides fully automated trading. So whilst receiving the best prices, you can focus on doing what you do best: running your business.
