BayWa r.e. Global

Have you heard? Dutch climate goals are increasingly out of reach, according to a recent report by the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency.  The report states that the Netherlands has just a 5% chance of reaching its targets for a 55% emission reduction by 2030. Our team at BayWa r.e. Benelux regularly experiences firsthand the challenges that come with developing renewable energy projects, including: • Uncertainty regarding new national regulations for wind farms • The decision by the cabinet to develop offshore as opposed to onshore wind as much as possible, which has led to more delays • Grid congestion Nevertheless, we are convinced that climate targets are very much within reach if we take the right approach. The technology is already here and is only improving: from silent wind turbines to energy storage systems, to reduce the pressure on the grid. If we empower local communities to play an active role in the #energytransition, we can get very far toward our climate goals. At BayWa r.e. Benelux, enabling local ownership and participation is our core business! We believe that our projects can only be successful if local communities benefit. Let’s r.e.think energy! https://lnkd.in/dxfj3g6V #climategoals #windenergy #onshorewind #renewableenergy #bwrebenelux #bwreNL

🌍 World Mental Health Day 🌍 In honor of World Mental Health Day, we asked our Mental Health First Aiders, our initiative to offer extra support for our employees to navigate life’s challenges, for some tips on resilience. Meet Lina, one of our dedicated colleagues. For Lina, dealing with challenging times is best managed through social contact, even if it’s hugging your pets, and physical movement. She shares that she finds resilience dancing with her favorite song on or going out for a run. While breaking a sweat can help you find resilience by balancing your hormones, it’s even more important to break the stigma! She adds that if you don’t feel comfortable reaching out for help, you can also use anonymous services. Remember, it’s okay to seek help and prioritize your mental well-being. Let’s break the stigma together! 💚✨ #WorldMentalHealthDay #MentalHealthMatters #BreakTheStigma #FindNewWays #WeEffectChange
