According to the foundation, it shows that the project developers do not just give up. “Moreover, this decision is now a success, but it offers no guarantee for the future. The province is currently working on an escalation ladder. If in the long term it appears that the ambitions from the Regional Energy Strategy (RES) are not being removed, the province may force municipalities to increase search areas for wind and solar energy.”
Think along with the alderman
The action group has offered the alderman to think along how the RES ambitions can still be realized for the municipality of Drechterland. Cologne: “But with less impact on the living environment and with more support from local residents.”
A spokesperson for Abo Energy, who wants to develop the wind and solar park at Oosterleek, says that they are familiar with the decision of the Council in Drechterland. They cannot yet give an official response.
