Current projects at the Utrecht Science Park

Utrecht University is working on several new building and renovation projects in the Utrecht Science Park.

Projects

    The bank protection of the fort moat at the Utrecht University Botanic Gardens is being renewed after 60 years.

  • Thermal energy storage system for Veterinary Medicine

    A WKO installation will be installed in the eastern part of the Utrecht Science Park in the second half of 2024. This part of the installation will connect the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine buildings to this sustainable energy source.  

  • Arboretum park

    Amid the bustling developments in the Utrecht Science Park (USP), we are working on a green Arboretum park that not only connects but also enriches. The Arboretum Park will soon form a green link between the centre of the USP and the buildings in the Northwest Cluster. 

  • Development Transition Building

    On the site of the former Earth Sciences building, Utrecht University is having a building with laboratories and offices developed by the external market party Kadans.

  • Zonnepark A12 Bunnik

    On the south side of the A12 motorway, between petrol station De Forten and the Houten-Oost exit, solar panels are being installed to generate sustainable energy. This project is a collaboration between Energie Coöperatie Bunnik and Utrecht University.

  • Dismantling Martinus G. de Bruin Building

    The Martinus G. de Bruin building is being dismantled in a circular way.

  • SL2 provides space in Northwest Utrecht Science Park

    SL2 is being prepared for the arrival of the Faculty of Science.The purchase of SL2 allows, among other things, the Hugo R. Kruyt Building to be vacated before the redevelopment starts.

    The Buys Ballot building in the Utrecht Science Park is undergoing a major redevelopment. This redevelopment is necessary to improve the air quality and prepare the building for a sustainable future.

  • Sustainable renovation of the University Library USP

    The University Library Utrecht Science Park is being made more sustainable and future-proof. In the summer of 2025, we will implement several energy-saving measures to make the building more comfortable for users and to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

  • Greenhouse complex Botanic Gardens

    The Botanic Gardens of Utrecht University are set to receive a new greenhouse complex. The current greenhouses, which house research facilities and a unique collection of tropical plants, are outdated and no longer meet the requirements of modern research and education.
