Yarışma Özeti(Summary):
The fast change of the global climate in the past decades and the permanent loss of fossil energy reserves show us that our enormous consumption of energy will lead to a problematic climate situation in the near future. To avoid this conflict, the most important question to answer is how to realise a sustainable energy supply fulfilling ecological criteria. This question increasingly affects objectives of modern urban planning with the built environment accounting for approximately 30% of the overall end energy use in Western Europe.

The aim of this competition is to realise innovative planning of new housing areas in Denmark, Germany and The Netherlands. Special emphasis will be put on a low overall primary energy use, the use of solar energy (active and passive), renewable energies and innovative technologies. Through the admission of participation the cooperation between investors, architects and energy planners shall be promoted. In particular, this competition should motivate the transfer of knowledge within the EU and lead to international collaborations.

The competition is supported by ALTENER II, a program of the European commission to promote the use of renewable energies.

Tip (Type):
The competition will be advertised as a 2-phase competition for architects, energy engineers and investors. The competition is anonymous.

Kimler katılabilir (Open to):
Only participants from any Member State of the European Economic Area (EEA) (EU-Member States + Iceland + Norway) are allowed to enter the competition.
