Welcome back to your learning journey on Positive Energy Districts (or PEDs), this time with experts from the SPARCS project. We live in a time of climate emergency and there is a crucial demand to reduce the environmental impacts and greenhouse gas emissions in Europe and throughout the world.

Cities at local level have an important role in mitigating the effects of climate change. Many actions to implement this change have to take place on the ground, locally.
Positive energy districts are a significant element of energy transformation, development of cities and their energy systems towards climate neutrality.

We have collected and compressed years of intensive research and innovation on PEDs. We have studied, demonstrated – and validated – PED solutions to include 7 cities across Europe. Implementing such solutions requires strong collaboration with many stakeholders across different sectors and areas of expertise. Similarly, this MOOC module is one outcome of our cross-sectoral collaboration with 30 SPARCS partner organisations. We are proud to share with you our key learnings from the SPARCS project – which we hope will inform and inspire you in your individual efforts towards a carbon-neutral world.
