Invitation to the Data Products Consultation (DPO)

Het Normo is now accepting registrations for the first (online) Data Products Consultation (DPO) on Wednesday 8 April 2026 from 13:00 to 14:30. This consultation brings together organisations from the sector to set priorities for new data products for sharing energy data. Organisations involved in sharing, using or developing energy data can register to participate. Registration closes on Tuesday 31 March 2026. Further information on data sharing can be found on the Energiedatawijzer.

Why participate?

The energy transition requires reliable, consistent and future-proof data sources. Within the DPO, new data products are discussed in detail, evaluated and prioritised. The aim is to arrive at agreed priorities that will help the entire sector move forward. As a participant, you represent your organisation and contribute to the collective interests of the sector.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for professionals who operate at a tactical to slightly strategic level, such as:

• senior specialists
• product owners
• architects
• policy advisers
• strategic advisers or business developers

It is important that participants have a substantive mandate and an understanding of the sectoral context.

As a participant in the Data Products Consultation:

• you will represent organisational and sector-wide interests
• you will assess requests for data products in terms of societal value, feasibility and coherence
• you will evaluate the impact on your organisation and sector partners
• you will contribute to prioritisation decisions
• you will identify risks, dependencies and overlaps

What knowledge and experience are required?

• an understanding of the roles of service providers and registry administrators
• knowledge of the Energy Act and relevant regulations
• basic knowledge of IT architecture, APIs and privacy principles
