Jätkäsaari City Block for Sustainable Development
The aim of the project is to develop and demonstrate energy efficient and innovative solutions in urban design and construction. The solutions developed in the project will serve as examples in Finland and internationally. The project is located in the Jätkäsaari district of Helsinki.
 
The project aims to contribute to a rapid reduction in the use of energy in the construction of blocks of flats and office blocks. Ambitious targets will be set for energy efficiency in the Low2No – Jätkäsaari City Block for Sustainable Development. The block is to become an example of the construction of passive and plus energy buildings.

Sitra organised an international sustainable development design competition to develop the city block. Together with its partners, Sitra’s Energy Programme will act as project developer. After the competition, further development and construction of the area have been transferred to Sitra's partners, SRV and VVO. The town planning and allocation of the city block for the purpose, as well as the sustainable development design competition have been designed in cooperation with the City of Helsinki.
