Not content with simply aiming for zero emissions, European policymakers are embracing a growing trend to create entire neighborhoods that are net exporters of energy. There are 10 to 20 such pilots underway today across the continent, depending on the precise definition of a "positive energy district." But there are plans to have at least 100 such districts in Europe by 2025, combining efficiency measures with distributed generation to deliver a net surplus of energy over the course of the year
