To demonstrate that it works better to make business parks more sustainable collectively, rather than individually, is the mission of the Sustainable Business Parks project in Venlo, which is focused on energy and climate adaptation. With a blank sheet as a project plan, €1.8 million was raised from the EU's European Regional Development Fund and the province of Limburg in 2019 for collective energy and climate adaptation sustainability projects. Among other things, five pilot projects to be implemented before the end of 2023, will demonstrate that collective sustainability works better than individual sustainability. The project is led by a project manager.

"A business park that generates more energy than it consumes": Business Park Schiebroek Rotterdam is taking this ambitious step by, among other things, realising a cooperative solar park.

To be independent from energy suppliers while creating leverage for sustainability and green energy. This is what GreenBiz IJmond is enabling with GreenBiz Energy. The aim of GreenBiz Energy is to bring together local energy supply and demand for sustainably generated energy. Each business park in the IJmond region contains several green energy producers and consumers, who maintain their sustainably generated energy on their own business park and trade it among themselves. Customers therefore buy their energy directly from fellow entrepreneurs.
