CBS: 26,5 miljard euro aan energiebelastingen, 4,4 miljard aan energietransitie

The Netherlands collected €26.5 billion in energy taxes in 2023, with €4.4 billion allocated to energy transition efforts. Tax revenues include energy levies and fuel excise duties. The government offset these through €7.5 billion in tax reductions, including connection discounts, free CO2 emission allowances, and the 2023 energy price cap, effectively reducing net tax income significantly.
