The island of Bornholm is on the road to becoming a 100 % green and sustainable society: Engineers, researchers, citizens, private companies, public and knowledge institutions are working together to transform bright ideas into green solutions for our common future. The world faces a huge climate challenge. While creating our bright and green island society, we will take part in solving the global challenge; pioneering the way in the development of new technologies and new ways to reach full sustainability.

Bornholm - Bright Green Island

It is visionary. And it is necessary. Bornholm is striving to be 100 % CO2 neutral and based on sustainable energy. And we are well under way. We call the destination of our journey Bright Green Island.

Bright Green Island is a vision about people, the economy, values, knowledge and technology, that together puts Bornholm on the world map as a 100 % green and attractive island. An island where one acts responsibly both environmentally and ethically. And island where people can live healthier, richer lives with less hustle and bustle, because we invest in our nature and get high returns from our all-year-round sensory experiences.

Bright and green solutions

Realizing our goals requires demonstrable responsibility and - not least - action. A lot of actions have already been taken and many more are under way.
