BuildZero brings together policy, technology, and practice to enable emission-free construction and smart charging on and around construction sites. By working towards standardization and grid-conscious solutions, the program accelerates the scaling up of zero-emission construction.During this knowledge event, you will experience how this approach works in practice and what it could mean for the choices in your own projects or policies.
The BuildZero Test Event is made possible by Emissieloos Netwerk Infra (ENI) and the industry association BMWT.The site visits are facilitated by Infraplatform Oost (Bouwend Nederland), the Municipality of Arnhem, and Connectr – Energy Innovation.The BuildZero project is subsidized by the Province of Gelderland.
The knowledge event will take place on the test site, in a covered tent. Participation is free of charge.The language of the event is English.
The excursion to the project sites is limited to a maximum of 30 participants — so be sure to register in time!Transport to the project locations will be arranged by us.If you wish to participate in the site visits, please bring your own safety shoes (mandatory); a helmet and safety vest will be provided.
