Positive energy districts

Towns and municipalities can become pioneers of progress towards climate neutrality. Positive energy districts are urban areas that are able to meet their own energy needs by optimising building infrastructure, maximising efficiency in every area of energy consumption, and implementing innovative business models. Here in Austria innovative solutions are being developed and demonstrated in real-world settings.
