Brabant: Isover may sell latent nitrogen space

Isover in Etten-Leur is free to sell the unused nitrogen emission space. Provincial Executive Elies Lemkes and her colleagues from Noord-Brabant announced this in response to questions from departing Member of Parliament Hermen Vreugdenhil (ChristenUnie/SGP). With that nitrogen space, 125 or more PAS detectors could be legalized.

It concerns latent emission space in a permit that the province has awarded to producer of insulating material ISOVER. The company is allowed to emit more than six times as much ammonia (nitrogen) than it does now. Vreugdenhil finds thethey license wrongly.

ISOVER may use the unused emission space itself for expansion within the company, but may also market the emission rights.

MOB wants to contest license
Incidentally, it remains to be seen whether Isover will uphold the granted license in court. Environmental organization MOB wants to contest this, as it successfully did before with the permits of the amer power station and an energy installation at Rendac.
