The Drechtsteden cooperative The Drechtsteden cooperatie

Everybody takes part in this cooperative. Energieregio Drechtsteden is keen to work towards a sustainable future. In 2017, they were one of the first regions in the Netherlands to create a regional energy strategy (RES) in cooperation with thirty organisations. They are working with many other partners, each with their own interests and the same goal. No matter how you look at it, the generation of sustainable energy affects us and our living environment. There is no denying that we are sometimes faced with difficult choices. The fact that this involves a small energy region, where many people live close to each other, makes the large-scale generation of electricity in the region a challenge. At the same time, the region offers many opportunities for making homes gas-free.
