Erik van Engelen

CEO Greenchoice | Board Member of Energie-Nederland

At Greenchoice, we are fully committed to working towards a Netherlands powered by green electricity, where everyone can benefit from the energy transition. We don’t do this alone—we are happy to work together with Energie-Nederland on this.
Erik van Engelen has a broad background in commercial executive roles, both in the Netherlands and internationally. For example, he worked in Brussels at the French dairy company Bongrain and was marketing director at the world’s largest beer brewer, AB InBev. At Eneco, he was jointly responsible for nine years for the transformation of a traditional energy supplier into a modern organization with a full focus on sustainability. He left as chief commercial officer (CCO) to take on the role of managing director at Wildlands Adventure Zoo Emmen. There, he ensured a successful turnaround and brought the zoo, which was struggling at the time, from a difficult financial situation to a healthy and future-proof position. He is now once again active in the energy sector as managing director at Greenchoice. In addition to his work at Greenchoice, Erik holds various supervisory positions.
