Unfortunately, this idea was not selected

Unfortunately, the idea did not receive enough votes in the poll and will therefore not proceed to the next phase.

However, the project team and the City of Zurich are reviewing all submitted ideas once again to identify potential synergies with other projects. Perhaps your idea could be implemented even without additional support? Please consider whether you would like to pursue the idea further.

If you’d like to continue getting involved in the pilot neighbourhood, you can also help develop one of the 26 selected ideas. To do so, contact the idea proposers directly or write to mitmachen@pilotquartier.ch.

Urban Wind Power Binz

Idea not chosen
What should be created?
The Binz is not windless. On the contrary, strong, noticeable wind currents are created between the buildings every day – an untapped energy potential in the middle of the district. With "Urban Wind Power Binz", we are making precisely this invisible energy visible and usable: small, district-compatible wind turbines convert existing air movement directly on site into electricity – for lighting, infrastructure or communal use. A pilot project that shows that the energy transition does not begin anywhere – but right here, between our streets.
example
We use what is already there. Measurement and visualization of wind currents in the district Use of compact, quiet small wind turbines Production of local electricity directly on site Use e.g. for: District lighting Sharing offers (e-bikes, etc.) The whole thing is deliberately small, visible and tangible – as a real neighbourhood pilot.
