heated green houses have become quite a problem. but it's one that a pilot project in the southeastern part of the netherlands is trying to solve the ws barber vessel reports. these are the green houses of peter mining in 4 years. his obsession has been to run them as environmentally friendly as possible. he specializes in sweet peppers and cucumbers and produces huge amounts of these vegetables and thought, oh our company is, is 50 hector. yes. on the 15th, as we grow $32.00 hectic earth sweets, peppers, and what we have as well is as long as we come over. you can see here as we grow them about 30000000 pieces a year. it's a complex and finely tuned operation in all aspects of growing feeding and harvesting the produce. and behind it is an elaborate system of energy production using as little energy from the grid as possible. like this is the transport system . but this is also the heating system that this is
12:25 am
a pipe. and we put in, for example, 55 degrees of water, the water from the biomass bomb for example, or to see be the combined heat power can go into the greenhouse. and during the night, the roof shielded by retractable blinds, to keep in the heat, which again saves energy. peter is keen to explain the systems he built here, to keep his plant running. this is a 20 cylinder 3 megawatts electricity, and which is provided by the yellow tube is gas. and then the machine is running, making 3 megawatts electricity, and producing to cool down 3.3 megawatt to make. and that's the energy how we used to heat our greenhouses. so peter is using the residual heat from his electricity generation, which he then selves into the dutch grid. that works when he has
12:26 am
a surplus. but that's not always the case. the weak point here is record gas prices . so every day, at 2 o'clock in his office, he's watching the t t f. the dutch spot market for gas, although i have a green company. but now, i'm falling back to fossil gas again and feels bad. that's but, you know, i have to survive. so i cannot influence the market. but if, if a nice position comes by, then i want to have it. that means hitting the buy button when electricity is more expensive than gas. but his real pride enjoy is his biomass plan, which recycled local greenways, including the stocks of his own vegetables. it's mainly chips from the area. and like this book is also coming from the area. it's collected, it's only products. so how does that work? yeah, the biomass comes from up, falls down on the grades, and then afterwards,
12:27 am
everything is cleaned. and on top with the heat, we make steam. with steam, we make electricity. to build the big system of energy generation, peter invested 30000000 euros is some only larger companies can afford. it's hard at the, at the moment to survive. even if you use these techniques. the increase of costs is so high. i hope all my colleagues can survive that peter himself all was his fir, the plans when i see something and i think about it. and if it's a solution then and i try to continue this and improve my company. this greenhouse owner is also his own head engineer, energy manager, and environmental expert. and before we go, i have just enough time to tell you about this weeks you to business special. it's all about how poor nations are calling on the world's biggest polluters to cough up and pay climate. reparations just had to youtube dot com slash dw news to watch if
