The Dutch greenhouse sector is undergoing significant change. Rising gas prices and increasing demand for sustainable production methods are forcing growers to reconsider how they heat their crops without relying on fossil fuels.
On Wednesday, February 25, and Thursday, February 26, Nijssen, together with its partner Fenagy, will be at the HortiContact fair in Gorinchem. During this fair, the experts will tell you more about sustainable heating solutions for greenhouse horticulture — and how you can start working with these solutions today.

One of the key developments is the increased feasibility of investing in modern heat pump technology, supported by the Dutch SDE++ subsidy scheme. Heat pumps offer an energy-efficient and reliable way to achieve a stable and precisely controlled growing climate. While many greenhouses still operate on fossil-based heating systems, heat pumps can deliver comparable levels of climate control with lower emissions and a reduced total cost of ownership (TCO).
Heat pump technology
The heat pump uses CO₂ as a natural refrigerant. Heat is extracted via robust, low-noise heat collectors, making the system suitable for greenhouse environments where operational continuity is essential.
All components are housed in a high-quality technical enclosure that functions as a fully certified machine room, including the necessary mechanical elements and electrical controls. The plug-and-play design allows the system to be integrated relatively easily into existing heating installations.

The system is designed for long operating hours, low maintenance requirements, and high reliability. An advanced control system continuously optimises performance by maximising heat output at the lowest possible cost, based on real-time efficiency data and current energy prices.
Nijssen / Fenagy are exhibitors at HortiContact, stand D46.
