The ENERGY4ALL project, Innoasis Urban Energy Lab, and Future Energy Hub invite interested stakeholders to a workshop on Positive Energy Districts. Ongoing work on PED Hillevåg is in focus, where University of Stavanger has gathered preliminary data through in-depth interviews with various stakeholders.
How can the efforts of heavy industry stalwarts like Felleskjøpet and Skretting to reduce their emissions and recycle energy as heat from manufacturing processes contribute to achieving the ambitious carbon reduction goals of the European Mission City Stavanger?
How can Stavanger Municipality enable such desirable synergies in ways that create public benefits for citizens of Hillevåg alongside climate change mitigation? Drawing on analysed data, the ENERGY4ALL project team invites YOU to engage in a structured exercise to build on results and co-create a working plan and recommendations for both policy and practice.
We will take forward the workshop results through our project funded by both the European Commission (through JPI Urban Europe’s Driving Urban Transitions call) and the Research Council of Norway until 2026. Join in!

ENERGY4ALL is funded by the Driving Urban Transitions programme within the Positive Energy Districts Transition Pathway. The DUT Partnership boosts urban transitions through its three thematic priorities – the Transition Pathways. The Positive Energy Districts Transition Pathway (PED TP) aims to develop innovative solutions for planning, large-scale implementation, and replication of PEDs across Europe.
PEDs are energy-efficient and energy-flexible urban areas that generate net zero emissions while managing renewable energy. The mission is to initialise 100 PEDs in Europe by 2025 and contribute to the Mission on Climate-neutral and Smart Cities with an innovation portfolio of PED solutions until 2030.
