Energy planning case studies
Real energy planning projects across districts, campuses, utilities, and city-scale strategies.
Hydrogen feasibility Green hydrogen production and sector coupling
A coupled industrial-and-residential green-hydrogen feasibility study — six Pareto-optimal variants in under 10 minutes.
Utility strategy City-wide energy supply strategy toward 2050
Three city-wide scenarios confirmed a CO₂-free supply by 2035 is achievable at similar life-cycle costs to today's fossil-based system.
Campus decarbonisation Climate-neutral research campus by 2030
A 10% CO₂ reduction already achieved in the current state, with a further 25% modelled in the planned state toward 2030 climate neutrality.
Solar development strategy Solar development strategy for the Port of Switzerland
Up to 20–25% cost reduction at the port, with regulatory change identified as the dominant risk and interlinking the buildings as the lowest-risk strategy.
Self-sufficient campus A self-sufficient campus energy concept
100% renewable, self-sufficient design across nine facilities — Agri-PV with a biodigester, methane and hydrogen storage.
District concept Strategic energy concept for the Insel-Holligen district
A low-temperature thermal network supplied by river and groundwater, stress-tested against more than 30 future price and demand scenarios.
Residential quarter Residential energy concept for a new housing quarter
Air-source HPs, groundwater HPs and biomass compared on cost, CO₂ and autarky for a new 16-building Swiss residential quartier.
Eco-quartier planning Eco-quartier energy concepts and decarbonisation roadmap
An 83% CO₂ reduction by 2040 mapped across three fully costed pathways — from cost-optimal to climate-optimal, with a politically viable route in between.
Commercial site net-zero design Net-zero commercial park — 75% CO₂ reduction
A net-zero commercial site at 20% lower lifecycle cost than the conventional reference design.
District heating expansion Optimal expansion strategy for a district heating network
Five candidate network segments, three plants, four scenarios — and three of four scenarios profitable with the 80% renewable threshold exceeded.
