Abstract
Albertslund Kommune in Hovedstaden region can be found on the island of Zealand in Eastern Denmark. It can be reached in 20 minutes from Copenhagen Town Hall Square. Over 60 % of the municipality is a mixture of forested and green areas. The community of approximately 28,000 people prides itself on its stewardship of the environment. Energy efficient design is given the highest priority in the urban development programmes. As part of the Alberton Concept, a collaborative project dealing with the renovation of homes, Alberton was named as the Nordic Energy Municipality in 2011.
