Afsluitdijk - Constructed to protect the land from the sea and to create more arable land, the Afsluitdijk is a testament to the Dutch ability to live below sea level by building dikes.
The Afsluitdijk is a significant dam and causeway in the Netherlands, built between 1927 and 1932, stretching from Den Oever in the North Holland province.
It serves as an ideal testing ground for innovative and sustainable energy sources. With wind, sun, and water all present, the Afsluitdijk harnesses water currents and the meeting of fresh and salt water to generate energy.
