Residential Development

In Salem outside Stockholm, Sweden, Skanska Hyresbostäder (rental housing) together with BoKlok, is developing a residential area called Norra Vitsippan – a cutting-edge project in renewable energy. A smart combination of heat pumps, solar thermal collectors and geothermal heat that is designed to reduce heating and hot water energy usage by up to 80 percent, which combined with solar cells panels becomes a net zero energy project.

The project is a pioneering project in the forefront of the rental housing industry and a significant step towards our target of net-zero carbon emissions by 2045.
