21. Did you know. - Avg. Household :. - electricity 3500 kWh/yr
Did you know? - Avg. Household : - electricity 3500 kWh/yr - gas 1500 m3/yr, kWh/yr - gasoline 2000 ltr/yr, kWh/yr - total: kWh/yr - Solar panels on a “dutch roof” app kWh/jr - More than 12 roofs needed!

22. Did you know (2). - Total consumption incl
Did you know (2)? - Total consumption incl. - food, products, transport, travelling - AVG household: - total kWh/yr - More than 40 roofs needed!

23. Did you know (3)? Annual Dutch natural gas production: 85 BCM This can generate (by gas fired plants) as much electricity as 30,000 off shore wind turbines (5 MW each) Converted: Currently The Netherlands has approx. 250 of these turbines

24. 85 BCM natural gas
… is equivalent to the amount of energy the sun will give in 18s on the globe or a week in the Netherlands But it still need to be converted to usable energy and energy that can be stored
