Welcome to Green Lighthouse

Green Lighthouse is Denmark’s first public carbon-neutral building. The building has been built in less than a year in a close public/private partnership.

The partners are the University of Copenhagen, VELUX, VELFAC, the Danish University and Property Agency (UBST) and the City of Copenhagen.

Green Lighthouse is located at the Faculty of Science at the University of Copenhagen and is a one-stop-shop where students advice on their studies, exams etc. Green Lighthouse also hosts The Copenhagen Innovation and Entrepreneurship Lab (CIEL).

Green Lighthouse was built by a consortium consisting of Hellerup Byg, Christensen & Co. Architects and COWI. Green Ligthhouse was officially inaugurated on 20 October 2009.
