Geothermal energy takes root in the heart of Novacity II – Anderlecht

The Novacity II project in Anderlecht involves the creation of 118 public housing units designed with particular attention to energy performance. To guarantee sustainable heating, the choice fell on geothermal energy, an environmentally-friendly solution. The project is part of a responsible urban development approach and marks a new stage in the evolution of the district. WellDoneDrill will start drilling the boreholes for this innovative system in 2025.
