Introduction |
| Trondheim holds a special place in Norwegian history and culture. It was the first capital
of Norway, and is still the city where new kings receive their ceremonial blessing. The city is situated by the Trondheim fjord, it is surrounded
by forested hills, with the Nidelva river winding through the town.
The Eco-City city demonstration sites in Trondheim comprise a whole integrated community approach and demand side.
The community participants include the main actors in town planning, city development and energy infrastructure, including the municipality
of Trondheim, the utility of Trondheim, the building company of heimdalgruppen, TOBB, Stiftelsen Svartlamoen, SINTEF and the consulting
company COWI Norway.
The concerto project will set a reference for new standards to prevail in the community both in retrofitting, new buildings, energy supply and
use polygeneration. The new intelligent metering to be tested is expected to form the future standard to be used in the community. Also the
approach will be anchored in the whole community through training of SME's and schools and through extensive dissemination. |

Renewable energy supply:
- 265 m2 solar thermal collectors.
- 750 kW biomass fired boilers.
|
Energy efficiency in buildings:
- Up to 350 new ECO-dwellings (22,400 m2) and ECO-rehab of 24 dwellings (900 m2).
- ECO-rehabilitation of three schools in total 17,600 m2, one commercial/cultural building of 3,000 m2.
