Abstract [eng] |
The strategic vision of creating 100 Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) across Europe by 2025 is compelling. PEDs are seen as one of the key drivers for the urban energy transformation. The PED concept is evolving and in recent years, there has been a growing number of PED-oriented initiatives and projects especially in Europe. While these PED projects may share some common values and goals, there is not a common PED definition. Several EU organisations or programmes established their own PED definitions, but these definitions are primarily qualitative description in nature. They are often overly general and thus, open to interpretation. As a result, different PED projects set different baselines, which makes it difficult for comparison. |
