Emission-friendly fertilizationIn 2017 all liquid manure will have to be injected. This is in order to reduce ammonia emissions. Slootsmid Mesttechniek from Laren is working on the triple spray technique, an innovative alternative that limits emissions and protects the soil. ECN is measuring the reduction in ammonia achieved by the prototype. |
Gas-fuelled power stations in a flexible energy systemThe depressed gas power stations in the Netherlands, many of which are currently not or hardly operating, could be profitable assets for electricity producers within ten years. This has been predicted by ECN in an online article on Energeia.nl. Biomass is unavoidableSupporters and opponents are discussing the usage of biomass. However, the question isn’t whether biomass will be used, but in what way it will be used, according to Marc Londo and Mark Overwijk. |
