SMILE: Together towards zero-energy neighborhoods
Making an entire neighborhood energy-neutral, how do you do that? It is a complex interplay of actors and factors. This is shown by the SMILE project, in which the university is also involved. SMILE’s objective is to get a better feel of what works and what does not, or not yet, in this context and under what circumstances. To that end, regional and local parties in ten Brabant neighborhoods are experimenting with different approaches.
