Ecowende

The most ecological wind farm yet

With Ecowende, we will take a huge step by building the most ecological wind farm yet. By doing so, we want to help make a positive contribution to biodiversity and thus accelerate the large-scale roll-out of offshore wind in the Netherlands and beyond. Ecology will be leading because we know that renewable energy must become more sustainable.
