All across Leuven, we're joining forces
For a climate neutral city

Nieuw Kwartier combines district heating, de-paving and sustainable mobility

The Constantin Meunierstraat is in a unique leverage position. By combining the planned reconstruction of the sewage system with green heat and softening, as well as by immediately including sustainable mobility in the mix, the city of Leuven is on its way to making C. Meunierstraat climate proof.

How we join forces

With a Leuven Climate City Contract

To achieve the Leuven of the future, we need a plan. We drew up a plan with the help of Leuven-based experts: the Roadmap towards a climate neutral Leuven. We are now accelerating the realisation of this plan through breakthrough projects and inciting organisations, companies, governments and inhabitants to action. Those commitments will be compiled into the first Leuven Climate City Contract.
