WELCOME TO THE ZEN RESEARCH CENTRE
We will enable the transition to a low carbon society by developing sustainable neighbourhoods with zero greenhouse gas emissions.
We are convinced that our future cities and communities should ensure optimal energy use and be good places for people to live and work in.
What we do
OUR PILOT PROJECTS
The ZEN Research Centre has 9 pilot projects spread all over Norway
The ZEN pilot projects serve as innovation hubs where our researchers, together with building professionals, property developers, municipalities, energy companies, and building owners and users, test new solutions for the construction, operation, and use of neighbourhoods in order to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions to zero on a neighbourhood scale.
