The City of Amsterdam wants to be free of natural gas use for energy consumption by 2040 and at the same time reduce their CO2 emissions with 95 percent by 2050. This includes the historical city centre. Therefore, work package 1 analyses the potentials for a systemic renewable energy plan, following the New Stepped Strategy (NSS) towards energy and carbon neutrality [Dobbelsteen 2008]:
