EUREF-Campus Düsseldorf will be the second of its kind. Some ten years ago, Reinhard Müller, architect and CEO of EUREF AG, had the idea for a European energy forum for the subjects of mobility and the shift to renewable energy. Since 2008, the EUREF stars have been shining on the “Gasometer” (Gasholder) of the former Schöneberger gas works in Berlin.
In Düsseldorf, a further development of EUREF-Campus Berlin in terms of strategy and content is taking shape.
In Düsseldorf, a further development of EUREF-Campus Berlin in terms of strategy and content is taking shape. The construction of two buildings with 40,000 square metres of rentable space is planned. The proximity to the airport, railway and motorway requires a special kind of architecture which still promotes creativity and offers high levels of living and workplace quality.
EUREF AG rises to this challenge: thus, a building in the form of a green innovation campus is planned with open courtyards which are covered by a translucent solar glass roof, resulting in a green atrium. Plants help create a good climate, in conjunction with the roof construction and special ventilation technology. The air for the building is ionized by means of a innovative process which does not generate ozone – clean air for a pleasant working climate.
EUREF-Campus: concept and building structure
In the second new building, a Mobility-Hub is set up as a testing and founding platform for the mobility of the future: e-mobility, sharing models for e-cars, e-bikes, e-scooters and autonomous driving can be developed and tested.
EUREF-Campus Düsseldorf provides room for ideas: in addition to Schneider Electric with its Germany headquarters, the anchor tenant, start-ups, companies doing regional and international business in the fields of energy, mobility and environmental protection as well as climate protection technology will find their place here.
In Düsseldorf, we would like to demonstrate that the shift to renewable energy is possible and affordable. EUREF-Campus Düsseldorf will be a place of the future!

Enjoying the Indoor Garden with trees and agricultural crops
EUREF-Campus Düsseldorf constitutes a unique platform in terms of its topics. It offers guests from political, commercial and scientific arenas as well as the general public a broad space for discourse, information exchange, trade shows and events. The glass dome is available for all of these events, and more.
Campus life will unfold especially in the indoor gardens. In the green courtyard, not only can one relax and reenergize, but also find novel spaces for teamwork and creativity. On the ground floor of the innovation campus, there will be restaurants with regional cuisine and bistros. The former check-in hall could be used for events and converted into a convention and congress centre for 1,600 participants.

Convenient for transit
Located adjacent to Düsseldorf’s international airport, right next to the Autobahn and the Düsseldorf airport train station, with connections to local, regional and intercity transit, the site of EUREF-Campus Düsseldorf is extremely convenient.
There is direct access to the train station and SkyTrain with connections to the air.port terminal. The transit hub will be further extended in the years to come. For example, an extension of the U81 is planned. And a new express bike lane will pass right by the Campus. In addition, there is to be a landing pad for air taxis in the future.
