In the Netherlands, we are in fairly broad agreement that the generation of our energy must become more sustainable. If we succeed in making less use of polluting energy sources (such as coal, oil and gas) we will help to combat climate change and our air will become cleaner.

As citizens, we all want to actively contribute to solving major social problems. We see this reflected in small-scale, often individual forms of sustainable energy generation. However, this is not sufficient to meet the total energy requirement. When realizing larger projects – which transcend the individual approach – you naturally want to be heard as a citizen, you want to be involved in what is happening around you. In that case, citizens' initiatives to generate energy together can meet a need.
