29/11/2017 (Agence Europe) – On Wednesday 29 November, the European Commission approved a Dutch support regime in favour of the company OCAP CO2 B, to build CO2 transport infrastructure in the green port of Aalsmeer. This measure, which has been costed at €3.1 million, aims to reduce CO2 emissions by 21 kt a year. The infrastructure will transport residual CO2 from various sources to greenhouses with requirements for CO2 to support crop growth, even though the greenhouses currently produce their own CO2 through heating systems. This system will help to reduce the use of primary energy sources needed to produce CO2. The Commission assessed the measure in light of the 2014 guidelines on environmental protection and energy and concluded that it complied with EU State aid rules. (LT)
