Smart Regions: Ecovillage Boekel shows how communities can become more resilient to climate change

Boekel is a self-sufficient eco-village with climate-positive houses made of sustainable material (such as hemp) and a testing ground for all kind of innovations such as the César heating system.

The system stores the energy produced by the ecovillage’s 600 solar panels. The ecovillage has won several awards for the sustainability of its buildings and it’s leading the way on the path towards a greener future. The project has been supported by the EU’s cohesion policy with about €1 million.
