At most, a few bird species will avoid such a wind farm. It turns out that a wind farm also provides a new natural habitat for organisms living on the sea bed such as mussels, anemones, and crabs, thereby contributing to increased biodiversity.

During the past 12 months this innovative district heating project produced 10 percent more heat than calculated. The surface area of the Sun Island is 7,000 m2, equivalent to one and a half football pitches. It provides partially the heat for the district heating network of the adjacent new housing area Noorderplassen-West.
