Around the Gasometer in Schöneberg, 7,000 people are working, researching and learning in more than 150 companies, institutions and start-ups in the fields of energy, mobility and sustainability – cooperatively, openly and together.

EUREF stands for the “European Energy Forum” and pursues the idea of a model district for the climate-neutral, resource-conserving and intelligent city of tomorrow. Since the project began in 2008, the approximately 5.5-hectare urban quarter, which has been meeting the German government's 2045 climate targets since 2014, has developed into a real-life laboratory for the energy transition that is unique in Europe. Through events on the topics of climate protection and sustainability, guided campus tours and company visits as well as informative projects such as the energy workshop, the city quarter is constantly expanding its function as a forum and information hub.

With the interior work and the refurbishment of the Gasometer in line with its listed status, a Berlin landmark was revitalized in 2024 and at the same time became a symbol of the energy transition.

„The EUREF campus is attractive for companies because it is also attractive to their employees. An inspiring environment with smart buildings, great architecture, and beautiful grounds, with plenty of space for meetings and plenty of room for ideas.“
