The energy transition is a very dynamic process, in which the energy issues that up to now were obvious are suddenly no longer there. People are asked for other (new) products, for other collaborations and for new role allocations. A lot is changing and a lot is going to change. Heijmans is a company that focuses on achieving a sustainable and healthy living environment. We take care of area development, the construction of homes and utility buildings and the construction of infrastructure and the long-term management of these components. In this lecture I will discuss the developments of the energy transition from the perspective of Heijmans to the future. I also zoom in on a number of practical examples from current projects and the energy transition to provide insight into what we encounter when creating an energy-neutral neighbourhood.
