Windpark Krammer, owned by energy cooperatives Zeeuwind and Deltawind, has initiated a unique collaboration with ZLTO, rewarding 15 farmers for carbon sequestration for five years. The farmers use various methods such as compost supply, wood belt planting, and field margin sowing to store CO2 in the soil.
