Duurzame Energie Sirjansland (DES) utilizes CO₂ captured from a biomass plant to enhance greenhouse production in Sirjansland. Established in 2017 and operational since June 2019, DES allows growers to minimize natural gas dependency while providing a cleaner CO₂ source.

The facility features a shared management system and buffer tanks enabling precise CO₂ dosing based on light levels and temperature. Compared to conventional CO₂ sources, DES's cleaner emissions contribute to higher crop yields and lower harmful gas levels. It is also economically favorable, anticipated to offer long-term returns despite initial investments.
