Netherlands Enterprise Agency (Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland, RVO) is a Dutch government agency under the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy. It implements national and EU policy by administering subsidy schemes, permits and advisory services for businesses, knowledge institutions and public authorities in the fields of innovation, sustainability, energy and agriculture. RVO also includes the Netherlands Patent Office and manages various international cooperation programs.
For the chemical and process industries, RVO oversees instruments such as SDE++ and other grants and fiscal incentives (e.g., EIA, MIA/Vamil) that support renewable energy, industrial electrification, hydrogen, green gas, circular and bio-based materials, energy efficiency and carbon capture/utilisation. The agency provides guidance, data and compliance information to help companies plan and finance decarbonisation projects and align with Dutch and EU policy objectives.

Targeting: Plastic waste (3), Pyrolysis oil (2), Benzene (1), TACOIL (1), Toluene (1), o-Xylene (1)
Convert plastic waste into about 10,000 t/y of renewable aromatic oil and downstream benzene, phthalic anhydride and aromatics for circular supply chains; first plant operational early 2028.
First commercial ICCP plant in Delfzijl will process 20,000 t/yr mixed plastic into ~10,000 t/y BTX aromatic oil and ~8,000 t/y by-products, cutting GHG 70–80%.
First commercial plant directly converting mixed plastic waste into 10,000 t/yr BTX plus 8,000 t by-products; construction begins early 2027, start-up mid‑2028.
Royal opening marks start of a 50,000 t/yr tyre pyrolysis plant producing marine fuel, circular naphtha, recovered carbon black and tyre pyrolysis oil; modular expansion to 200,000 t/yr planned.
The plant produces TACOIL™ from hard-to-recycle plastic waste, aiming for full commercial operations and supporting EU recycling goals.
Perpetual Next expands its Moerdijk biogas plant to produce green gas and liquid CO2 for Dutch horticulture, enhancing sustainability and efficiency.
Pilot design, funded under the Dutch TSE scheme, will fractionate fast pyrolysis bio-oil into stable lignin, sugars, light phenolics and wood vinegar from 2G biomass residues.
Acquisition connects Amsterdam granulate plant to Delfzijl chemical recycling, creating a vertical chain from tyre collection to recycled chemicals, recovered carbon black and renewable fuels.
