OVERALL WINNER FUTURE

HOT HEART
CRA-CARLO RATTI ASSOCIATI

Jury Motivation
This project, led by a transdisciplinary team coordinated by CRA, sets a new standard for cities that are prepared to take a leading role in the way we use, store and generate sustainable energy. Hot Heart celebrates an innovative technology that uses the sea as a device for thermal storage. At the same time, it will offer inspiring experiences and participation for the city’s communities, by combining large scale thermal storage infrastructure with “floating forests” that will welcome citizens and tourists. The project aim is to decarbonize Helsinki’s heating system, and will act as a prototype for cities around the world.
