The afsluitdijk allows for saline sea water right next to clean fresh water due to the rivers ending in the ijselmeer displacing the seawater form the inland sea. I wish the Dutch government would fund projects like redstack which try to generate energy from the saline difference on the afsluitdijk while they renew things. It seems so much easier to do both infrastructures at once (redstack and blue energy as a whole is still expirimental though).
