Bulb game are not always in enjoyment because of the growing season , crop gyration , or because they are temporarily flooded for environmentally friendly soil disinfection . On Tuesday , September 12 , partners within the project ' doubly sustainable enjoyment of space with portable solar energy- ' met at married person ATG and GT van Haaster vof in De Zilk , municipality of Noordwijk , the Netherlands , to view the first two portable trial plots .
Double use of spaceSubmerging an empty plot of land and then floating solar panels on it . The project ' twice sustainable use of infinite with portable solar energy at bulb growers ' is look into this agency of twofold consumption of space at ATG and GT van Haaster vof . This company currently has a small set - up with transferable solar panels on its patch . From here , with a bit of better half , the mathematical process and possibilities offered by movable solar panels are being examined . If this turn out well , it could intend that a full set - up would bring home the bacon the municipality of De Zilk with twelvemonth - round solar - generated push .
Two readiness - ups of solar panelsThese two set - ups can be find side by side in the quoin of the patch behind better half Van Haaster ’s b . The ideal place to test the two set - ups - which take issue in term of the real use of the float construction - for operation and possibleness within this project . This way , the space on the game is used twice , and the residuum menstruum is used optimally .
Plots not used yr - round for growing bulbsTo keep the land fertile and in good condition , it is necessary to schedule a rest period . This is all to do with the crop gyration bike , in which no crop is grow for a maximum of one twelvemonth . During this resting moment , Nipponese oat ( or another dark-green manure crop ) , for instance , are sown or deluge ( deluge ) to smother roundworm and other soil diseases .
Optimal yield and devote something backInundating the plot with movable solar panel on top allow the plot with electrical energy from a natural source for the grower on the one hand , and on the other deal , the land is ' spared ' and fertile . From a social decimal point of vista , Van Haaster plans to deal the generated energy with households in De Zilk .
How to proceed?It is a nice finish to eventually cover three hectares of land with all the solar panels and - it is expected - generate enough vim to provide both Van Haaster and the actively involved municipality De Zilk with year - troll solar - generated energy . That generated energy does need to be stored somewhere . Part of this undertaking is , therefore , to look into the possibility of buffering .
PartnersBesides the province of Zuid - Holland and ATG and GT van Haaster vof , Greenport Duin- en Bollenstreek , the municipality of Noordwijk and Zon op Northgo Coöperatie U.A. are also partner in this task . Together , they bear financial responsibility for this undertaking and also contribute in sort .
