Interview; "A new kind of Landscape"

Since little fossil fuel remains to be dug-up from the earthly depths, in the near future we need to gather energy at the surface. Energy collected here, however, is much less dense, and the endeavour consequently will take up large amounts of space. The collection of energy thus becomes a matter of spatial planning, entering the realms of urbanism and landscape design. B Nieuws sat down with Dr. Sven Stremke from the Landscape Architecture chair group at Wageningen University and Andy van den Dobbelsteen, who collected ideas about the energy-landscape nexus in their recently published book: “Sustainable Energy Landscapes: Designing, Planning and Development (CRC Press, 2012).”
