We are open to partnerships
We welcome partnerships – with companies, governmental organisations and research organisations – and new ideas to raise the sustainability of alternative forms of energy to a higher level and thus realising environmental innovations.
For businesses, cooperation with ACRRES offers a favourable environment for innovation and the availability of a wide range of facilities, speeding up the process of making production methods more profitable and sustainable.
We carry out various projects in different ways
Experimentation
Together with (new) partners we conduct applied research, developing prototypes to improve cost-effective ways of sustainable energy production and the use of biomass.
Testing
We offer businesses space as a test location for their prototypes (processes, machines, equipment, devices).
Demonstrate
The site in Lelystad provides ample opportunities for carrying out demonstrations to bring current and future potentials of renewable energy and green resources into the limelight.
Learning
By concentrating activities, ACRRES provides an excellent learning environment (internships, assignments) and information point for (groups of) students.
