Mission Pathways
Representatives of The Gate (TU/e) are committed to the following mission pathways:
(De)velopment of new construction chains and application of sustainable building materials in the neighborhoods
In redevelopments and renovations in our neighborhoods, we will ensure that this is carried out in a biobased, circular, and climate-neutral manner.
Collaboration and knowledge sharing
Together we increase awareness and engage ambassadors, frontrunners, and exemplary projects aimed at the sustainability of business activities in our cities.
Energy and smart grids
Business parks are large consumers of energy. Sustainable energy from solar and wind is increasingly being generated. By managing demand in combination with storage and a so-called 'smart grid', this can be better aligned with supply.
Network congestion
The demand for and supply of (sustainable) electricity are increasing. All this electricity needs to be transported through the existing cables (the electricity grid). More capacity must be created on the grid as soon as possible, and we will need to make smarter and more optimal use of the grid. This is being addressed at provincial and regional levels, including through the regional taskforce and pMIEK.
