Did you know? The Transparent Factory was the Volkswagen brand’s first CO2-neutral production facility, in terms of its carbon footprint. Our production processes have been using green energy for quite some time now, and our heat supply is also free of CO2. In the green outdoor areas, we nurture flora and fauna in the most natural way possible. Our special tour allows you to experience our sustainability concept for yourself.
The Transparent Factory took numerous environmental and conservation aspects into account, implementing them already during the construction phase. And the facility is still leading the way today in putting environmental and conservation considerations into action. For example, it has relied exclusively on green energy for quite some time now. This climate- and resource-friendly focus is also evident in many other aspects of the factory.
During our guided tour, we’ll take a first-hand look at features such as the factory’s unique heat regulation system, which is easy on resources. The system involves the use of the external stairwells as a climate buffer along with a double-walled external facade. Of course, the tour also includes a visit to the factory’s CO2-neutral ID.3 production area.
The outdoor part of the tour includes nesting boxes, solar panels and our own beehives. You’ll receive answers to questions such as these: What kind of energy can guests use to charge their vehicles in our parking lot, one of Saxony’s largest charging parks? Why are there piles of different types of dead wood? Why do all of the nesting boxes face southeast? Do beekeepers have to continue tending the hives in the fall and winter?
The various stations that we show you are intended to emphasize our aim of producing sustainable ID. vehicles in Dresden, in a way that is environmentally compatible.
The guided tour of the indoor and outdoor facilities is conducted in small groups of up to 18 people.
