breakthroughs such as the Long-Term Energy Storage
Systems that extract cold and heat from the ground
to be used to heat buildings in the winter and cool
them in the summer. Sustainability also entails paying
attention to the needs and requirements of the people
who live in an area. An excellent example of this is the
Binckhorst development that is located near the centre
of The Hague. While it is currently still a disorderly
business estate, over the next twenty years it will be
transformed into a dynamic area where people will
live, work and recreate. Residents, business owners,
homeowners, experts and other interested parties have
all been invited to join forces to discuss and help chart
the future of this project. Rabo Bouwfonds is committed
to demonstrating its position as an organisation that
takes the city seriously. It is dedicated to supporting
the development of an area, whilst still respecting the
existing structures and buildings.
