Renovation: Affordable and scalable renovation is the key challenge for the coming decade'
-
Energy Communities and Positive Energy Districts (EC & PED):' we translate all experiences around EC projects in Flanders into next steps for effective realisation and position Flanders in the new EU trend for PEDs.
Large Scale Energy Storage and Security of Supply (Sos): we review our position in the field of long-term energy storage (e.a. power to X), given the rapid evolution in industrial ambition to achieve full CO2 neutrality.
