2:24 am
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 us is 50 hector. yes. and on the 15th, as we grow 32 hectic sweets, peppers, and what we have as well is as long as you become real, you can see here as we grow them about 30000000 pieces a year. it's a complex and finally 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 a pipe. and we put in, for example, $55.00 degrees of water, the water from the biomass bomb, for example, us each be the combined heat power can go into the greenhouse. and during the night,
2:25 am
the roof is 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 it 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 sells into the dutch grid. that works when he has 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,

2:27 am
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 come 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 i speak to pretty bundari from the world resources institute. and louise osborne from d. w. environment, we talk about the ongoing comp, 27 climate conference, and the chances for big nations to make
