Betuwewind: a windenergy cooperative in the Rivierenland
The windenergy cooperative Betuwewind is owned by citizens and is developing the Avri and Deil wind farms. Both windfarm will generate green energy for approximately 60,000 households. Members of the cooperative have lent money to the cooperative, in order for the cooperative to be able to make the investment in the windparks. During the annual meeting of the members of Betuwewind in December 2018, the members gave permission to invest in the windparks. Financial close has been achieved and the turbines are ordered and the realization of the grid connection is in progress. The wind turbines are expected to be operational at the beginning of 2020.
Jan Albert Timmerman supports Betuwewind with regards to certain agreements needed for the development of Avri and Deil. RenewabLAW associates are also involved, e.g. Blix and Bond Advocaten.
