Moerdijk Village at Risk from Energy Project
Description
A massive energy project near Moerdijk threatens to dissolve the entire village, requiring 450 hectares of land — a scaled-down version of original plans that once demanded 1,300 hectares. The push to expand industrial zones and accommodate waste-processing businesses keeps driving up land needs, even as officials claim the current proposal was already a compromise. A glimmer of hope exists: a potential 240-hectare alternative under review by the State Secretary, though details remain unclear. With decisions delayed twice and a new deadline looming on June 29th, residents face mounting uncertainty — officials insist caution is key, given the irreversible impact on a whole community.
