In these moments in which the energy debate is in all the conversations, energy self-sufficiency is becoming a priority. Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) can contribute to more sustainable and energy independent cities while promoting exchanges to between citizens to become easily replicable in other scenarios.
Within MAKING-CITY, solutions to implement PEDs are being tested in Oulu and Groningen (our lighthouse cities), while our six follower cities are finalising the design of their own PEDs. The demonstration districts are almost finished and the experiences are being transferred not only to the rest of the project cities but also to other through local seminars and workshops focused on PEDs.
To follow these workshops and other Smart City conferences, you can check our events calendar, which is kept up to date with the last events of the community.
