Tvedt Climate Quarter

The Tvedt quarter is developed as a climate quarter resilient towards climate change, which provides the area with a unique identity underlining it as an attractive business district. A climate quarter is an area that through a holistic approach responds to the challenges of climate change. The approach arises from of the fact, that no single solution can meet the challenges alone, but that it is in interplay between technical measures in urban spaces and buildings, people’s behaviour and urban planning processes that new opportunities and potentials arise.

The climate quarter is not developed as an ordinary city part, but as a destination with focus on the transformation from oil and gas industry to knowledge intensive green businesses and climate initiatives to draw attention from firms as well as the universities.
