First match on Kickersbloem energy trading platform
Self-generated solar power fed back into the grid yields less and less. Sometimes there are even feed-in costs. That is why entrepreneurs in and around the Kickersbloem business park have set up an energy trading platform, where they sell surplus self-generated electricity to each other. Meanwhile, the first match has been made between two companies.
Frank de Lange of an agricultural business on Laaijekreekseweg supplies power to a property owned by Danny Reichardt (also owner of Ri-Jo) on Kickersbloem 3. They made a deal whereby Frank gets more for his self-generated power and Danny pays a lot less than with a "regular" energy supplier.
