Natural gas-free Boschstraatkwartier
In Boschstraatkwartier, we are working with residents and local businesses to explore how the neighbourhood can move away from natural gas in a way that is realistic and affordable. On this page, you can read more about the latest developments and upcoming activities in the neighbourhood.
Why Boschstraatkwartier?
The municipality needs to make all homes in Maastricht natural gas-free by 2050. We are looking at the options neighbourhood by neighbourhood, because each neighbourhood is different and offers different opportunities. Boschstraatkwartier is not the only neighbourhood where we have started exploring the options. We are doing this in several other places too.

We are not only there to give information, but above all to listen.

What can you do yourself?
You can start today with simple measures that you will benefit from straight away. One example is insulation. This can save a lot of energy, especially in homes built before 1992. Homes built after 1992 are often already well insulated.
