Built Environment (national policy)

In its work on this theme CE Delft’s core mission is to work out the most effective national policies for speeding up the transition.

The energy transition poses major challenges for the wide array of stakeholders in the built environment. To achieve climate neutrality by 2050 will require major efforts on the part of municipalities, grid operators, energy companies and others. Backed up by our extensive expertise on allied themes like Energy Supply, Raw Material Supply Chains and Financial Instruments, we provide research and consulting services on national policies for reducing the ecological footprint of the built environment.

Key fields of expertise

  • Financial measures: affordability and effectiveness
  • Voluntary agreements and mandatory measures: assignment of responsibilities and additionality
  • Roll-out of legislation
  • Institutional change (e.g. administration and regulation of heat, hydrogen and gas grids)
