B1P002: Motivation behind PED/PED relevant project development
  According to Vantaa city strategy 2021-2025 Aviapolis area aims to become the greenest airport city in Europe. The district is transforming from a logistics and business focused area to a lively urban district which gives an opportunity to rethink the areas energy solutions. With Neutralpath-project Vantaa aims to support the development of the district's energy system and explore innovative, energy efficient and fossil free district energy solutions.
