Green menu for monuments

The municipality of Wassenaar is working with the De Groene Grachten Foundation. They are one of the experts in making historic buildings and monuments more energy efficient. The Green Menu Wassenaar shows you what options there are for making historic buildings more sustainable. But customization remains the key word, especially for protected monuments. 

The Green Canals also provides customized advice. You do have to pay for this.
