As a project manager with a background in European environmental law, energy law and state aid, I combine my legal expertise with years of experience in project management. At New Energy Coalition I focus on the development and implementation of European innovation projects, with a special emphasis on green gas, the North Sea Region, and cross-border cooperation with Germany. I have also been a committed member of Vrouwen in Energie Noord-Nederland (VIEN) for many years.

Connection, knowledge, and strategy: as a partner, you'll collaborate on projects, raise your organisation's profile, and be in direct contact with leaders in the region.
As a partner, you'll be part of a movement innovating the energy system. You'll contribute to local innovations that have an impact far beyond the region's borders. At the same time, you'll strengthen your position as a leader in the sector.
The New Energy Community is for everyone who wants to contribute to new energy for a strong energy region. From Groningen, Drenthe and Noord-Holland Noord we work together on innovation, education and a sustainable living environment.
We bring together businesses, governments, and knowledge institutions to make the energy system sustainable, reliable, and affordable. Together, we're building new energy for a strong northern energy region, with broad prosperity and a sustainable living and working environment.
Together with our partners and members, we form a platform where we jointly set agendas to share knowledge, ideas, and interests, and to make agreements about the role of energy in the northern region. We are Drivers of Change!
Our team of experts works daily to create a sustainable, reliable, and affordable energy system. This requires research, innovation, and well-trained personnel. We apply this in our region, but the impact extends far beyond its borders. All this knowledge and expertise generates new energy for a strong northern energy region, with broad prosperity and a sustainable living, working, and living environment.
Whether you're a (young) professional, student, or employer, we offer a wide range of training opportunities. We also work on educational and workforce development in the northern energy region.
