“Put solar panels in a noise barrier or use new techniques.” That is what residents in Haarzuilens say who are concerned about the arrival of a solar field in their village. They believe that the field is at the expense of nature and the protected townscape, but are not against the arrival of sustainable energy. In De Bilt they are further. There has been a solar field there for years and the permit for a second field has been obtained. How easy is it actually to build a solar park and can these new techniques already be used?
