The Energy and Water Sustainability Focus Group of Koppert is hard at employment prioritize and bring down Koppert ’s consumption of natural gas , other dodo fuels and electricity . This include using a green label greenhouse with sustainable technologies such as heat - saving screen door and heat pump . One successful energy saving project is the raising of Eretmocerus at the new green label greenhouse on the Molenweg near Koppert central office .
Eretmocerus is a good insect that has been produced by Koppert for many years . The production of this macrobial formerly have lieu at Koppert ’s 30 - yr - quondam greenhouse on the Hofweg . Significant energy nest egg have been achieved after yield moved to the young green label glasshouse on the Molenweg which has the recent technology in terminus of insulation , climate control and low-cal infection .
tremendous energy efficiency‘The difference between the two greenhouses are so peachy that the Eretmocerus production squad is now able to attain an unbelievable 360 % improvement in energy efficiency , ’ pronounce Robert Bergenhenegouw , Process and Information Manager for Overhead Insects . The figure is based on insects ( in gm ) per cubic meter of instinctive gas consumed .
‘ This succeeder is the result of a majuscule lot of preparation and coaction between the Macrobial Department and the N&I Department , ’ Robert explains . It has been calculate that the Macrobials Department uses around 58 % of all the gas consumed within Koppert Netherlands . ‘ We can now conclude that the efficiency improvements at the green label greenhouse on the Molenweg contribute enormously to the commission of the Energy and Water Sustainability Focus Group for an energy - achromatic and fossil fuel - free caller by the fourth Koppert generation . ’
Green recording label greenhouseIn order to bring up dirt ball sustainably without using fossil fuel , it ’s crucial to reduce the use of flatulence as much as possible . This means that the nursery must play the rigid certification requirements of a green label nursery . This is a nursery in which sustainable technology such as screen ( curtains in the top of the greenhouse ) which keep out the coldness from the outside and keep in the passion from the inside are used as much as possible . ‘ We have also chosen to generate part of the heat with a heating system pump , ’ Robert excuse . This pump works on electricity and rise ware heat to a higher temperature . This proficiency is very efficient and intend that heat can also be mother using electricity . A third important column is light transmission and light distribution . In the newfangled greenhouse on Molenweg , the selection was made to use diffuse trash , a technique that distribute the light optimally . In increase , all of Koppert Netherlands ' electrical energy is purchased as gullible energy .
