The model energy-oriented refurbishment of the 1960s residential neighbourhood in Weingarten, Freiburg, goes far beyond the standard measures. It aims to reduce the overall primary energy consumption by 30% and to demonstrate the way to achieve a climate-neutral energy supply. In the competition "Energy-Oriented Refurbishment of Large Apartment Complexes" organised by the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Development, this project was awarded one of the ten silver medals.
