Research by the Dutch Sustainable Energy Association (NVDE) shows that more than 70% of Dutch farmers are reluctant to invest in renewable energy and energy saving, and that this is mainly due to the unpredictability of current government policies.
Uncertainty, arising for example from the government's unclear nitrogen regulations, has a significant impact on farmers, with them expressing a need for stable and predictable policies to justify large-scale investments in renewable energy.
Edwin Michiels, portfolio holder for nature and climate at agriculture organisation LTO, stresses that it is crucial for the new government to set a clear course for the agriculture sector. He argues that removing barriers could encourage farmers to invest more in renewable energy.
The findings of the NVDE investigation highlight the need for stable policy. We are not only ready to help farmers navigate this uncertainty, but also offer reliable and innovative energy solutions that support the agricultural sector regardless of policy conditions.
