The district is provided exclusively with energy from renewable sources. The energy used in the Western Harbour is generated in or near the area.
Sun, wind and water is the basis for energy production together with energy from refuse and sewage from the district. The demand for 100% renewable energy means that there must be a balance between production and energy use on an annual basis. Energy used in the area should, at some point in time, be produced there.
The new electricity grid and district heating network is linked to the existing systems of the city in order to bridge the time-lapse between the point of production and use of energy, without the need for specialised equipment for energy storage.
The city's system is used as an accumulator and as a reserve supply. An effective usage is essential in order to reach the target of entirely locally produced renewable energy. The buildings in the district are designed to minimise energy demands for heating and electrical equipment that is installed is highly efficient.
