Overview
The DUT PED Conference 2025 will convene from October 1 to 3 in Milano, Italy, under the theme "Positive Energy Futures: From Local PED Pilots to European Practice." This event is a significant gathering for stakeholders involved in the development and implementation of Positive Energy Districts (PEDs), which are essential for achieving a decentralized clean energy system in urban areas.
Conference Highlights
Since the European SET Plan's inception in 2018, the concept of PEDs has gained traction as a holistic approach to sustainable urban regeneration. The conference will highlight the achievements of over 100 PED pilot projects across Europe, providing a platform for sharing insights and best practices. Participants will engage in discussions about the comparative advantages of the PED concept and explore strategies to accelerate its adoption in urban planning.
Agenda
The conference will feature a mix of panels, plenaries, and breakout sessions:
October 1: Opening session with a networking site visit.
October 2: Full conference day celebrating the "100 PED Mission" achievements, followed by discussions on embedding PED practices into mainstream urban strategies.
October 3: A study trip to PED sites in Parma, offering attendees a firsthand look at successful implementations.
This event is tailored for researchers, practitioners, and city representatives involved in research and innovation projects related to energy, housing, and urban planning. Registration is open until the end of June 2025, and interested participants can find more information and register through the official conference website.
