Rakvere is currently developing an idea of so called
Smart House in Rakvere.
The existing building to be developed into a Smart
House with smart solutions providing and
guaranteeing energy efficiency in old buildings dates
back to year 1935. The house is 1900 m² large.
Within the current project Rakvere intends to
develop measures and concepts how to accomplish
energy saving in an old building. Moreover,
Rakvere plans to create a test-environment that
enables to test the technologies that provide energy
efficiency and saving.
