The world’s first emission-free malt house – two years after opening
Challenges and opportunities | Two years ago, Holland Malt opened the world’s first 100% emission-free malt house, i.e. complete elimination of all fossil fuel practices. Today, the company reflects on the lessons learned, the challenges overcome, and the opportunities ahead. This pioneering project demonstrates how innovation, collaboration, and adaptive processes can move the brewing and malting industry towards a more sustainable future. Although the project is unique within the industry, many of the insights gained reach far beyond a single company. The obstacles encountered and the solutions developed in this pioneering effort offer the wider industry a preview of what lies ahead – both the difficulties and the opportunities. They also highlight the growing importance of a policy environment that enables energy-intensive industries in Europe to decarbonise while remaining globally competitive.
