Wijziging van de Mijnbouwwet (aanpassing van het vergunningsstelsel voor opsporen en winnen van aardwarmte)
This motion proposes changes to the Dutch Mining Act to update the permit system for the exploration and extraction of geothermal energy. The goal is to streamline the process of tapping into the earth's heat to support the transition to sustainable energy sources. This change primarily affects companies and developers involved in geothermal energy projects, potentially reducing administrative hurdles and accelerating the deployment of heat pumps and district heating systems.
