Project Zero
ProjectZero is a non-profit private-public partnership focused on transitioning Sonderborgs energy related carbon emission to ZERO by 2029. The priorities are:
1) energy efficiency
2) usage / integration of excess heat from energy sources
3) energy from renewable sources
4) a balanced energy system with digitally based use of energy and storage capacity.
…which are displayed in a Sonderborg Living Lab – with the aim of scaling the solutions to cities around the world.
Citizen/company/stakeholder involvement is of key importance for reaching the ZERO carbon emission target, which was set in 2007.
