De Melkbussen

Powering 6,000 households with clean energy and boosting local biodiversity

Together with developer Odura, Obton GreenIPP is realizing its second solar park in the south-west region of the Noord-Brabant province in the Netherlands. Near the city of Heerle, 39.843 grount mounted solar panels, with a capacity of 21.6MWp will supply 6000 households with energy every year.

The total surface of the property is 1400 acres, of which 20% will be used for high-quality landscaping to improve bio diversity. All under the guarding eye of milk churns "Kobus" and "Kwibus" (reminiscent of the village's dairy industry), standing tall on their bee-friendly mound between flower fields.

A crowdfunding campaign will be launched in Q2 2022 through crowdfunding platform ZonnepanelenDelen. This will enable local residents to invest in Solarpark De Melkbussen and profit from the energy transition.
