Lunch Lecture: FED project Gothenburg Sweden

Lecture by by Stina Rydberg, Johanneberg Science Park, Sweden and Claes Sommansson, NNN
Hosted by the Urban Energy Institute
Date: 14 May 2019

The Swedish project FED, Fossil Free Energy Districts, visits TU Delft and will share findings and results at the Energy Platform Lunch Lecture. By balancing the urgent need of energy transition with an ever-increasing energy demand, FED aims to play a key role in creating fossil free cities in Europe. FED has established a district scale innovative demonstrator of a local energy marketplace, uniquely integrating electricity, district heating and district cooling. In line with the aims of the Energy Union and EU energy targets, FED enables a fossil-free and secure supply of energy as well as long-term business models for a future energy market with higher use of sustainable energy sources. FED is financed by UIA, Urban innovative Actions.
