Utrecht municipalities get a second chance for wind energy plans
In recent years, plans for the realization of wind energy have not gone smoothly. It has also been found that the more concrete the plan for wind turbines, the more the resistance increases. This happened in the municipality of De Ronde Venen, for example, and in Renswoude, despite an enthusiastic alderman and a local developer, there was no support for wind energy. The mayor was forced to resign. Alderman Paul Heijmerink resigned in Bunnik. When he said goodbye, he said: “There is a threat of a climate catastrophe, but despite this there is great reluctance to participate in making our energy production more sustainable.”
