A sustainable neighborhood in the field of energy and the environment
Following the European climate goals, the city government commits itself to sustainable use of energy and raw materials (2050 is the target year for co2 neutrality). For example, the city opts for Nieuw Zuid for bicycle paths and residential areas where pedestrians dominate, underground car parks, noise and air quality measures, collective energy supplies, sustainable water management, and so on.
