Power networks/Netherlands/TenneT Hoogspanning Dataset
Introduction
TenneT is a provider for high voltage power transmission and system services. Their main focus lies on the Northwest-European energymarket.
This dataset contains public information about the high voltage stations and -connections for 110 kV and higher within The Netherlands.
How to Use?
- Create an account at ArcGIS Online
- Sign in and search for 'TenneT Assets' in the top search bar
- Select the most up-to-date 'Feature Layer'
- Click on the Export drop-down button at the top right of the screen and select your prefered file extension
- Name your export, add at least one Label and click on 'export' to safe it in your personal account (within ArcGIS)
- Click the 'download' button. If the download page doesn't pop up select 'Content' at the top of the screen and select the page from there
Here is Additional information (pdf) provided by TenneT.
Purpose
- All of the high voltage power lines above ground have already been mapped, with the increasing demand for electricity the grid is developing fast so this needs to be kept up-to-date.
- Most of the underground cables still need to be aligned properly and in some cases are still missing.
- The mastnumber (ref=*) can be missing or tagged with the incorrect number.
- Some of the route relations between the substations could be missing and should be checked for the right amount of cables, colour-coding etc.
Data
The information within this dataset has been split in three categories: substations, power lines / cables and towers.

NetschakelID
TenneT is using their own colour-coding system with information about how the electricity is being transported to the substations.
For most lines and cables it's displayed as follows <from|to|voltage|colour>
| Value | Ref | Voltage | Information | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LW-LSM110 Z | LW = Leeuwarden | LSM = Louwsmeer | 110 = 110 kV | See Substations > OBJECTOMSCHRIJVING to get the full name |
| Value | Colours | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Dutch | English | Information | |
| LW-LSM110 Z | Z = zwart | black | |
| LW-LSM110 W | W = wit | white | |
| LW-LSM110 P | P = paars | purple | |
| LW-LSM110 G | G = grijs | gray | |
| BL-MSKZ110 GL | GL = geel | yellow | |
| WEW-MEE220 B | B = blauw | blue | |
| EMW-BGMR110 O | O = oranje | orange | In some cases wrongly mapped as red |
| BGMR-KZV-MEE110 R | R = rood | red | |
| GT380-GT150 TR401 | TR = transformator | transformer | These short segments are transformer cables and have no colour-code |
