To find the theoretical energy of geothermal power in the Netherlands we used the McKay book to approximate the value.
The population density of the Netherlands is approximately 400 people/km^2
This is about 10 times more than the world's populaion density according to Mckay.
The UK has a population density 5 times that of the world.
According to Mckay geothermal can offer, at most, 2 kWh/d per person
So, the Netherlands, being twice the population density of the UK, should only be able to supply
1 kWh/d per person
