Regional energy strategy of the Wadden

.

Which ways of creating energy do you
already know about?

content

• Energy using sunlight
• Wind direction/speed
• tidal power
• blue energy
• conclusion

 hours of sunshine 

1. Texel
2. Vlieland
3. Terschelling
4.  Ameland
5. Waddenkust (Noord-Holland)

• Most hours of sunshine

• best place for solar panels.

wind direction and wind speed 

• The wind blows harder on the coast than inland. 

• wind from the sea has no obstacles.

• on land speed is reduced by things like trees. 

name 2 wadden islands with the most hour of sunshine

which tidal technology is the most efficient one?

1. Coast Turbines
2. Tidal Barrages
3. Tidal Fences
4. Tidal Turbines

blue energy

• reusable energy 
• extracted from water (differences in salinity)  
• tested at the afsluitdijk
• has access to both freshwater and saltwater
•  needed to test for blue energy 

'
What are the two the main importances for creating blue energy?

conclusion

• many ways to get energy (many of these are sustainable)

Use of sunlight

• Install solar panels at suitable locations on the islands. 
• Choose spots with maximum exposure to sunlight
• consider integrating solar panels on the roofs of buildings 

Energy using wind

• beware of  potential disruptions for the local population and nature.
• Identify locations with high wind potential and install wind turbines.
