Eerstvolgende Barn Talks
Barn Talk | Joost Wouters | The battle for Biomass: Seaweed | December 4th 2019
Speaker(s): Joost Wouters
Three years ago, climate entrepreneur Joost Wouters fell in love with seaweed. It absorbs a lot of CO2 and has many valuable climate-friendly applications such as use as energy-producing biomass. So in 2018 Joost, together with several partners, set up ‘The Seaweed Company’. Since then he has been engaged in cultivating seaweed on a large scale and in realising the many valuable applications of seaweed. During this Barn Talk he will take a closer look at the opportunities and challenges involved in the large-scale cultivation and use of seaweed. And also, of course, we’ll be looking at whether the Province of Groningen can play a role here!

About the Energy Agreement
In the Energy Agreement for sustainable growth, it has been agreed that by 2020, 14% of the energy generated must be renewable, and by 2023 this will be 16%.
The objective is a challenging task where the first question is: “How much renewable energy is currently being generated in the Netherlands?” Www.energieopwek.nl answers this question with current charts and tables (website in Dutch).
