Work in progress

Every day, we contribute to waterproofing the future. We work to provide clean, healthy, and treated water, and ensure sufficient water in every season. We do this for the people in our area. This page provides an overview of all the activities and projects currently underway.

  • Future of the lake Lauwersmeer area

    In the unique and vulnerable lake Lauwersmeer area, we are working with local partners to find solutions that strengthen nature, agriculture, and water safety.

  • Expansion of balancing lake De Onlanden

    The balancing lake De Onlanden is being expanded. Its capacity will increase from 7.5 to 12.7 million cubic metres of water. The additional balancing lake is expected to be completed in 2027.

  • Solar parks wastewater treatment plants

    Noorderzijlvest aims to be an energy-neutral water authority by 2025. We are going to construct solar parks on the sites of wastewater treatment plants. By generating our own sustainable energy, we will need to purchase less fossil fuel energy and will ensure lower CO2 emissions.

  • Sewage sludge treatment at Garmerwolde wastewater treatment plant

    We are studying how sewage sludge can be disposed of in a sustainable, reliable, and efficient manner at the Garmerwolde wastewater treatment plant (WWTP).
