The construction sector is one of the biggest consumers of resources in Germany. With the "Seeviertel" new housing development, the municipality of Inden in the Rhenish lignite mining region, together with RWE Power, the Aachen-based Kathy Beys Foundation and the development company indeland GmbH, has set itself the goal of halving resource consumption. As the first settlement of its kind in Germany, the Seeviertel demonstrates how energy efficiency and resource conservation can be integrated into neighbourhood development right from the ground-breaking ceremony.
