200 wind turbines with 9,000 ha of agriculture is less than 5% of Gelderland farmland

200 wind turbines with 9,000 ha of agriculture is less than 5% of Gelderland farmland. Wind takes far less land than its footprint suggests. The Climate Opportunities Map Gelderland by New Economy (2024) sets this out for energy. Gelderland energy potential is large but held back by grid congestion and the pace of implementation.

Rooftop solar, wind and smart energy hubs bring the energy potential into view. This is relevant for the province of Gelderland, energy parties and organisations in the energy transition.
