The ZEN Research Centre is a national centre for environment-friendly energy research (FME). We develop solutions for future buildings and neighbourhoods with no greenhouse gas emissions. The centre consists of a consortium of partners covering the entire value chain: research institutes, local and regional governments, property owners, developers, consultants and architects, ICT companies, contractors, energy companies, manufacturers of materials and products and governmental organisations. Together, we develop nine pilot projects where we test new solutions and technologies for reducing carbon emissions in neighbourhoods.

Together with our public and industry partners, we develop 9 test areas («pilot projects»), which are spread all over Norway. We also host the EU project syn.ikia. In addition, we test our research with cases.
