Learn about Positive Energy Districts
This free learning platform provides materials and a community for professionals who are or want to be actively involved in a PED project and anyone else who is interested in smart city solutions.
PED Learning Community
On this platform you can currently find two courses: The PED Start Guide that serves as an introduction into Positive Energy Districts and a course on PED Business and Stakeholder Ecosystems.
The platform is not just made for sending information. We aim to build a PED Learning Community together with YOU and be able to develop many more online courses and other learning activities. Sign up and become part of the community so we can learn from each other.
If you are part of a European PED project and would like to contribute to this platform as an expert, co-developer or submit a whole course, please contact us.
Learn & Share
Gain new knowledge
There are currently two courses available on several aspects of Positive Energy Districts. Learn through watching videos made by experts in the field, drawing from EU funded applied research projects ATELIER and SPARCS. You can choose to follow a whole course or focus on the aspects that you are particularly interested in.
Translate knowledge into action
Our courses and workshops aim to provide new skills via a practical approach. We combine and share academic knowledge with practical experiences coming from running and finalized EU funded PED projects.
Share your experiences
The emerging knowledge on PEDs and their contribution to societal goals, such as climate change mitigation, will be used in upscaling and replication strategies and policies. The platform will support city stakeholders through best practices and sharing successful replication approaches across cities.
PED Community
All European PED projects have an experimental character. Professionals who are involved in these projects learn new skills and gain new knowledge on a daily basis. Most importantly they learn from each other. Join us!
The development of this learning platform has been sponsored by the Centre of Expertise City Net Zero of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences.
