We invest in innovative projects
To be able to continue supply energy in a responsible manner now and in the future, Nuon is investing in innovative projects. Nuon uses the knowledge gained from these projects in its efforts to use energy as efficiently as possible, to generate as much power as possible from wind, sun and water and to use fossil fuels as cleanly as possible.
Almere: an island full of solar energy
10% of the total energy requirements of this area are met by locally-generated solar energy.
Less CO2 in the atmosphere
Nuon is designing its new power plants in such a way that they will be able to capture CO2 in the future. CO2 emission is seen as the principal cause of global warming.
Nuon supplies not only heating but also cooling
Buildings in the Zuidas district of Amsterdam have been sustainably cooled with water since 2006.
State-of-the-art power plant
A hypermodern power plant, equipped with innovative technology allowing several fuels such as gas, biomass and coal to be used.
Making solar energy more widely applicable
By using flexible solar cell technology Nuon aims to be able to use solar energy on a variety of surfaces and therefore make it accessible to the consumer.
Sea wind: clean energy
Around 100,000 households no longer need to use energy from fossil fuels thanks to this clean alternative of wind energy from the offshore wind farm at Egmond aan Zee.
