Energy, Resource Circularity, and Retrofitting in Positive Energy Districts

2023
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to prove the positive contribution of transformative interventions on existing neighbourhoods and districts in the transition to sustainable cities. According to the goals of climate adaptation and mitigation and of reduction of climate-altering emissions of the UN Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development, cities ...

Positive energy districts solution booklet

2020
Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) are gaining importance, both as urban innovation labs and as concrete, on-the-ground projects for creating future proof, energy-positive and climate-neutral urban living environments. Where do they come from and why should one have one or more PEDs developed in one’s own city?

Positive energy districts in Norway and Switzerland

2022
By looking at different recent developments of PEDs in Switzerland and Norway, we describe the characteristics of national approaches towards PEDs. By deepening the description of two respective case studies in the two countries, we analyzed how PED approaches are implemented within the specific context.

Evaluating Positive Energy Districts: A Literature Review

2022
To achieve the climate goals in the Paris Agreement and clean energy transition, positive energy districts must be promoted. A positive energy district is focused on increasing the efficiency of the buildings within it, using the renewable energy it produces, favouring electric and hybrid cars, and storing all the energy produced, in order to make ...

Energy Positivity and Flexibility in Districts

2017
This chapter examines the concept of energy positivity and argues that energy positivity, in the classical sense (i.e., districts that generate more electricity than they consume), is not a suitable objective or metric for Energy Positive Neighborhoods (EPNs), or smart energy districts more generally.

Optimizing district heating supply for positive energy districts

Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) aim to generate more energy than they consume by leveraging renewable energy sources (RES) and innovative energy systems. These districts represent a transformative urban development approach prioritizing sustainability, resilience, and carbon neutrality.
